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.

Yes life is meaningless in a cosmic sense! I'm merely mentioning our inability to live it. We can recognize nihilism, yet we can't employ it, at the end of the day, our pupils dilate and our hearts race regardless of our conception of meaning.

By 'live it' I mean, employ nihilism in our lives. It is biologically impossible.

just the opposite, you haven’t escaped it — you point at your stomach and think it’s sounds are “meaning”, but they are just a hungry growl

It never was meaning, and it never will be. Yet we can't act like we have the ability to recognize 'meaninglessness'. Doing so is a gross distancing of humans from their own nature.
