human nature is the source of all meaning in the universe excising it, to better conform to your conception of good, is paradoxically nihilistic and authoritarian you are a person, these fundamental problems are intrinsic to people

This is not tightly reasoned. First assertion wrong, second assertion pointless (almost everything is "nihilistic" from some vantage point, authorianism is a bullet I'm willing to bite in this context), last assertion depends on a circular definition of personhood.

try to unpack that so i can see your reasoning

1. Everyone accuses anything reductionist of being nihilistic. But reductionism is a matter of degrees. Believing in one less "thing" than someone else doesn't make you a full blown nihilist any more than believing in one less god than someone else makes you an atheist.

2. Human nature contains whatever the source of meaning is but not everything in human nature is necessary to whatever the source of meaning is

you're asserting your authorial prerogative to a final understanding of human nature and meaning, and from where it is derived you don't want to inhabit this tactical position

Look. Every second I exist is coercion. My existence is coercion. I don't care that my only consistent position is to answer back in the same terms as my enemies. It doesn't matter.

the schmittian stance isn't the only coherent political stance if all you will *ever* have is what you have, then it makes sense but if, through creation, there is a better for all in a conflict, then it becomes absurd
