Nihilism makes no sense. Attempts at 'not caring' are ineffective as we are guided by combinations of instinct and physiological responses. Even if involuntary thoughts and actions aren't taken into account, rendering living as 'meaningless' is intrinsically purposeful.

meaning and purpose don’t structure the states — they’re just response mechanisms

it’s “meaningfulness” that makes no sense, you need something supernatural to get there — which is why destroying the machines with fire and erasing written language is our only hope

Yes, but these responses are what constitutes meaning and purpose to a person, in a psychological sense. Meaning is fabricated inside us despite of language and machinery.

It's innate. How do you think religion and language arose? It's instinctual to communicate and commune hence fabricated meanings.
