    +ChefBoyarJim The line after "come watch TV" is so amazing. it places the lines before it into benevolence . Morty understands its all for nothing but despite everything reaches out to summer. and better yet he wants to watch TV. an activity about observing fake realities. Rick and Morty is honestly a modern piece of art.

    Good cartoons always like to deal with complex human emotions. Adult ones are just generally better suited to tackle nihilistic questions, while people prefer convincing their kids that life has meaning. Eh, it's all perspective. Hmm, y'know, that sounds like a challenge worth thinking about: A family friendly cartoon with a nihilistic message about humanity.

    imo its obvious that Rick's entire motivation for why he does what he does is to protect his family, while simultaneously pretending he doesn't care about any of them as to not look vulnerable, which in a way, is also to protect his family. If all his enemies figured out that he actually did care about his family (therefore making him vulnerable), then they have an easy way into Rick's head. So, he has to keep up the facade that he doesn't give a single fuck about anything, and that's why he's the "rickest rick of them all". He's the only rick that actually has the capacity to give a fuck while pretending he doesn't and he uses it to his advantage.

    This stockholm syndrome of an interpretation really shows how twisted one´s logic and how big one´s blind spot can become when you want to keep identifying with a highly ambivalent, despicable figure like Rick. From the first few episodes on, it should be totally clear that his no. 1 motivation is to be no.1, the smartest, the most powerful, master of the universe, for the sake of it. On numerous occasions it´s clear that he doesn´t care for the safety or sanity of his family (or for any good in the universe), in fact he´s harming & endangering their lives (especially Morty´s) on a daily basis, often using them like (replaceable/ reproducable) tools to increase his senseless, quasi godlike power. The few moments when he shows real (not the usual faked) empathy or even willingness to sacrifice his life for Morty only show that he´s just an _almost_ absolute asshole / they imply he´s actually a bipolar personality and has his "weak moments of truth". To me it´s quite clear that "Rick & Morty" masterfully demonstrates the consequences of isolating power, the principle of narcissism (and "bad science"). Since capitalism is essentially based on that principle, and most participants deny that fact as long as it serves them, that also explains why so many people oversee/ apologise Rick´s actual character.

    That's dumb. Your physical size is not an indicator of your overall importance, which is itself kind of a useless concept. I feel like Rick and Morty put it pretty well, in a way. Sentiments don't matter. Philosophy doesn't matter. Most of the universe is light-years away and doesn't matter. What matters is what we can touch. What matters is money, and power, and how you use it to make the world better in whatever way you see fit. You want to be more important? Find something that matters. Make money. Leverage it.

    This is why I love this show so much. It shows that our existence is basically meaningless but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while it lasts. If everything's meaningless you can do anything you please, because nothing you do will have a lasting impact. Whether it's because there's an infinite amount or realities or because the passage of what we call time will eventually wash away everything that we've done. Or at least that's the message I like to take from it. Criminals are only criminals because they're doing things that are *virtually* not allowed. Nothing isn't allowed, you can do anything, you'll just have to find a way to deal with what happens afterwards. But the universe doesn't care if some human killed another. We're just arrangements of particles that form a living being and will eventually become something else once the living being that we are dies. In the end what truly matters is what matters to you personally, because it's what gives flavor to your life, your experience. That and all the pleasures and pains that come with it. And even then it doesn't truly matter but hey at least you had a blast while you lived your inconsequential existence, so who cares that it doesn't matter anyways? See how paradoxical that is? Even meaninglessness itself is meaningless, how insane is that? It's actually completely sane, but I'm gonna stop right here because I don't feel like going on writing. Enjoy your lives people!

    I really like the concept of the Ex-suicide created by walker Percy. The ex-suicide is a person that realized they had no reason to commit suicide because they had ultimate control of their life because they had the choice to commit suicide, but didn't. “The difference between a non-suicide and an ex-suicide leaving the house for work, at eight o'clock on an ordinary morning: The non-suicide is a little traveling suck of care, sucking care with him from the past and being sucked toward care in the future. His breath is high in his chest. The ex-suicide opens his front door, sits down on the steps, and laughs. Since he has the option of being dead, he has nothing to lose by being alive. It is good to be alive. He goes to work because he doesn't have to.”

I would suggest reading the Moviegoer and Lost in the Cosmos by Percy. They are great reads and they gave me a different perspective on life, though I will admit the ex-suicide or any of his other ideas are not the solution for everyone or every situation.

    In reality, we are neither of them, because this show is fictional. Although it does express the beliefs and the philosophical convictions of the creators, it has no bearing on reality. At the end of the day, the philosophical conclusions made in this show are no different in value than any other philosophical schools of thought. They are just BELIEFS. Not facts. I love this show, but sometimes its fans just blindly accept all of the philosophical claims made in the show as reality... but this is not necessarily the case. You dont have to be either Rick or Jerry. There are other alternatives in reality.

    Ricks purpose is to entertain us that's what makes him tick, he is inside our micro-verse and if he cannot die because he is the main character, that's why he doesn't give a fuck. The only thing that keeps him going is the fear of being cancelled and that is why he has shit catch phrases and acknowledge the audience saying "see ya next week". His universe will not exist unless he entertains us and he realises that this is the sole purpose of his universe.

I'd like to find out what makes me happy for more than a moment.

    Rick is an Existentialist. Morty is a Utilitarian. This is best shown when Morty kills Fart. When Morty learns that Fart will kill all life in the universe he kills him. He did the math and decided that if Fart dies then the universe of gaseous beings and carbon based life forms will not harm one another. Ironically it's that same utilitarian arithmetic that led Morty to first kill Krombopulous Michael. People seem to forget that. Morty starts the episode as a killer and ends it as a killer. You may point to this adventure as Morty's biggest character development. I say it's the most character affirming episode for Morty's utilitarianism.

    Morty is less Utilitarian in the Purge episode, instead evoking classic morality (save the girl, stop the evil-doers). That being said I think that episode is deliberately confused: Morty acts far out of character (purgenol or otherwise) while offering direct commentary on how his character is static. Overall I think the writers are just trying to point out the extreme tension in Morty: because Rick isn't 'wrong' in embracing the absurd, Morty constantly is torn between a more "normal" non-nihilistic frame of mind and the meaninglessness of all his adventures.

    bforce909 Theorizing about morty's is pretty fun; I think the show only works if we're following "our" Morty (otherwise it devolves into infinite realities and prevents us from emotionally investing in the fate of one set of Rick & Morty; I could be mistaken though). A better question is this: Is the show's Bird Person "Our Rick's Bird Person?" If no, why would Rick care so much about a single Bird Person's death? If yes, how can that be reconciled with the Cronenburg event of Rick Potion #9? I've thought of a couple answers that work, but none that are super satisfying or logically consistent.

Life is whatever meaning we give to it. Since in the end it doesn't matter, isn't it better to have good time for the amount of time we are her cuz we can never be sure what happens after death even if your religion says there will be heaven and hell, we can never be sure

    Ragnarok Azor That it did for me as well. In my lack of universal knowledge, I, at least for myself, can't come to agree on the idea of life's meaninglessness. I feel like the breaking of everything down into mundane pointless things is detrimental to living. like for sure what we call love is caused by chemicals in your body reacting in a certain way, I find that that is ONLY the scientific part of it, and that there is much more to the Universe than just that which is scientific evidence. I will say I can't help but admit the plausibility of a meaningless universe, but it just seems a bit of a projected definition. The failures of individual humans to find meaning. They can't reconcile many questions, and conclude by projecting their experience onto all of existence, and all people. I find such a world view a bit to easy to settle on. like a cop out. I know many people who have found meaning to life, and I admire that.

The whole premisse imo is about deconstruction (not making you suicidal). It breaks everything you call thought and makes you analize it like you never truly did. Not a bad thing to do

    Jerry is just a representation of our own complacency in life. He gets dragged on amazing adventures, has multiple opportunities to explore the universe and life, and yet he can't see past his nose. What's worse is his weird and infuriating narcissistic obsession with himself and his wish for everything to be simple and easy to understand. When shit happens he just goes with it, partially because he's an unwilling player and partially because he's too stupid, scared, or lazy to do anything about it. Instead he finds solace in absurdly pointless things just to keep himself busy. And in a way, we are Jerry. We get used to shit happening in our lives all the time, and even when we understand the consequences we're too lazy to change anything, even though the changes would benefit us greatly. We are indeed Jerry.

    i don't think we give universe a point we give point to our own lives. we feel that since we our the only thing in the universe, that we know of, that has intelligence on the universe, we are the center of it. it is kinda bit of narcissistic of that we, a tiny race, can give point to the universe. we only give meaning to our own lives. it is not bad but saying that's bad we give point to the universe is a bit off. we find a new star, new planet, discover new things and that is great and all but in the end we don't give point to the universe we give point for us

I have never seen this Rick and Morty show so I lack a fuck-ton of context, but I, like most people who watch this channel I am a consistent philosophy nerd, so I think I understood all the philosophical references you at least made in this, which brings some context. Which I found entertaining. So it then seems likely I would find the secondary source entertaining, so I spose I should go watch Rick and Morty.

    +Shangori Making you own goals doesn't contradict nihilism ideology. Alienation from society and environment caused by not keeping up common values, traditions (believing in god), and ideologies (thus being nihilist) makes human feel alone and helpless. And this is one of the scariest thing we can experience. Only thing humans are afraid more than there is someone behind their back, is that there is no one behind their back.

    +Shangori we come from a positivist scientific background that condemns the subjective as false and seeks to prove the existence of pure objective reality trough the scientific method, though social sciences have divorced or at least started to use heavily subjective methods to understand population. This mixed with the philosophical objective of well known figures like Descartes or Plato of again separating our own subjective ideas in order to understand the universe in it's pure form drives subjective knowledge as useless, however both Plato, Descartes and many more (Isac Newton for example) used the example of god as a way of giving meaning back to the universe, after all in Descartes theory he doubted of the whole existence of our species only maintaining confidence in the existence of his own mind, however once he brought the idea of a divine being to the table he started to "prove" once again everything he had doubted. without god though we still have the scientific and philosophical need to understand the universe in it's pure form, seen outside of our own eyes and mind. but without the idea of a divine being that gives meaning to our lives we are left with a big changing universe in which we are an insignificant nothing and doesnt care the least about us. our goals and self created purposes and irrelevant from a scientific and philosophical point of view, one of them at least.

    +Shangori God, on the other hand, is nice getaway from alienation. He always stands behind your back, and even if you feel alone. Death for example is frightening mainly because (apart from the fact that fear of death is biologically predetermined in all the living organisms) you are going to be alone forever and inevitably. Belief in god makes people feel that after death they will not be left alone. Heck, even sinners believing in god, often claim that they will go to hell, nevertheless they continue to believe. Because honestly, when you start to think over death not distancing, and thus feeling it, even idea of eternal torment is not as horrific as idea of eternal alienation.

    +bromo sanovo "but without the idea of a divine being that gives meaning to our lives we are left with a big changing universe in which we are an insignificant nothing and doesnt care the least about us" There is no difference between a deity deciding what meaning we have, and us making up a meaning for ourselves. Both are cases of a sentient being making up a meaning. Meaning is inherently subjective. Leaving it to somebody else does not make it more true or objective. Also, the subjective is not false. It is merely subjective.
