Why does it matter tho? You guys say the universe is gonna die someday anyways. Nothing happens beyond that, according to you. So really, nothing matters. So why does this suddenly matter to you guys? Why the hypocrisy?

I have not been given reasons why it matters. No one has directly shown why it matters. They’ve given PREFERENCES and OPINIONS, but not why it matters. The earth is going to die anyways, so why does it matter to take care of it? It doesn’t. It literally doesn’t matter. Nothing matters according to THEIR philosophies

Wow that’s a lot of word salad for someone who isn’t getting angry. Asking someone why something matters is intrinsically subjective. You’re asking people to “prove” you things while also bitching about opinions and preferences as if you aren’t peddling those yourself.

Who says climate activists are all nihilists??? Most of them think their life has meaning and don’t want to get fried on a scorched earth because of that?? The earth is going to die, SO LETS PREVENT THAT SO IT DOESNT. WHO are you talking to that says “the earth is dying THEREFORE life has no meaning” bc it seems like you’re getting super triggered over people that don’t exist

No you didn’t❤️ why does it matter? I’m trying to prove to you that ultimately, it matters because we say so. That’s it! And ok if our OPINIONS and BELIEFS are the JUSTIFICATION. Then when I believe something you don’t that isn’t verifiable, remember this. (So when someone says I believe X race is superior, you cant claim they’re objectively wrong, since superior is a moral claim)

We matter because we are beings with emotions. I would argue that we and other sentient beings are what makes anything matter. Our emotion and consciousness brings a value into the universe that would be cold and uncaring otherwise.

I believe that consciousness creates a capacity for desire and meaning. We can want things. We can experience things. That creates a value. A universe without life does not care what happens, but we care because we have the capacity to care. You’re not going to get an easy answer because this is one of the deepest philosophical debates. But simply, I value my own life and the lives of others. Therefore they have value. It’s enough for me
