Camus, Sartre

OP here. Recently I have read Trainspotting, Notes From Underground, Porno, Fight Club and I've just started Beyond Good and Evil. I don't know where to go from here.

Assuming this post is truthful (feasible based on post count up till now), you started out in existentialist territory and wandered over to some Nietzsche, so your progression is typical.

To fully internalize a nihilist outlook on life, I recommend Cioran's aphorisms, "You Are Worthless!", a humor text by Oswald T Pratt (Scott Dikkers), and simply becoming a regular on r9k for a solid year. Really let the ideas soak in.

The irony is that you will actually have an accurate view of the world afterwards, but this is unpopular because nihilism is by its nature anti-humanist. If people can't justify or busy their brains somehow about themselves, they get bored and reject boredom as childish, simplistic or invalid - which is intellectually dishonest.

This might help with Camus

I know that there's this one chart where it's about what books to read for purpose.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

It asks a question and then you answer it and it pushes you somewhere and asks more questions until it gives you a purpose. One of them is "hallelujah!" and gives christian lit and another is existentialist stuff

I actually used to lurk r9k a lot, but it's one of the stupidest places on the Internet. I realise that it is nihilistic in that it rejects many aspects of modern life, but I'm looking for things that reject morality, mainstream culture, materialism and consumerism. R9k just rejects any sort of social relation with anyone.

Oh, so you want "edgy at times but not actual, thoroughgoing nihilism taken to its logical conclusions (misery, suicide, etc)". You want something more normie. That's fine.

In that case try out whatever books are popular among Marxists or something. Maybe you'd like one dimensional man, I dunno.

bump for this chart. I know someone on /lit/ has it. Please.

Pls I want the chart

I was going to say Mark Twain's The Mysterious Stranger, especially the end, but I'm not sure. Maybe that's less pure nihilism and more the lament of a profoundly disillusioned humanist.

How aren't their works nihilist? Sartre and Camus influenced existential nihilism greatly, right?

>>7443940
Camus hated the term existentialism and didn't believe he was associated with it

Keep in mind Camus was pretty successful in life. He wasn't a nihilist, just someone that thought a lot.
