Is Moral Nihilism a Morality?

RE: Is Moral Nihilism a Morality?
(June 11, 2019 at 6:56 am)Gae Bolga Wrote: I'm giving you examples from your own comments about nihilism that present themselves as normatives. 

Can you explain how any of those comments are actually expressing anything normative?

Quote:You're building a list of what a nihilist can and can't do, here. 

How so?

Quote: Normatives don't have to be coherent to exist, and they don't have to arise from a coherent position to exist.

Did I say that normatives have to be coherent to exist or did I say that a position has to be coherent in order to coherently express something normative?


Quote:There are things a nihlist shouldn't do, and things a nihilist should

Does this imply that a nihilistic position expresses something normative or says that anybody ought to do or avoid doing anything?


***


Does talking about what Nietzhere believed about nihilism actually answer my questions?

Have you given a single argument for how I've made any normative statements and how nihilism and Error Theory are implicitly normative? Have you merely asserted such things and failed to back those assertions up?

Have you answered a single one of my direct questions? Have I answered all of your questions?

I am going to keep responding in questions until you start answering them rather than avoiding them (because you either can't or won't answer them). If you continue to fail to answer then it's clear that you are just a timewaster and I should discuss this matter with somebody else instead, who is both able and willing to discuss it, no offense.
