& Some of it is suicide inducing.

Hey, which one is suicide-inducing?

IMHO, Life doesn't have any meaning. It is us, our consciousness who create imaginary meaning to any event in this world.

Lions hunt to eat and feed their cubs. But do it have any meaning? no.
Same with people, they work, pursuing career, etc to live, eat, and create offspring. Does that have any meaning? no.
We need to deduce meaning to motivate ourselves. We all do it. Our lives would be empty without. Hollow; depressing : like Neitzche's philosophy : it's a worldview I find particularly unnatractive. I just don't think it's very intelligent to follow a destructive line of reasoning that makes life unbearable.

No one is talking about 'imaginary meaning' but thanks for that obvious straw man.. it helped not at all with anything. Useless. Superfluous. Imaginary. Evidence of you doing that exact thing : justifying yourself with empty bullshit.
