Prototype notes

5092. entropicism -> the motif of a philosophy of meaning where individuals are not asked or obligated to look for meaning to their lives, they don't even have the task of looking for meaning, because all material processes have a limited form of inherent meaning that exists within their causes, results, and relationships to other processes. the entropicist position does not assert that particular models or outcomes that relate things to causes and effects are the most important ones, it only says that reality, history, and the search for happiness in life are generally about outward cause and effect rather than inward choices as they would be within early-existentialist philosophy. this means that two different Marxisms (and two more anarchisms) could exist all interpreting material reality to find meaning and none could be inherently the most correct meaning of existence yet all of them could be valid, in the sense that they are operational and each possible to make use of to each create societies all existing in plurality.
      entropicism can be compared to nihilism in that nihilism always has a sort of "floor with a hole in it" where you sit with nihilism for a while and then you fall through the floor and land on an actual interpretation of how to apply nihilism when you have to keep physically existing anyway. entropicism is one of these possible "true floors" you could land on. technically it could be considered a form of nihilism but it's entirely transformed the purpose, substance, and presentation of it to where it's practically an entirely different thing; it's practically turned into "somethingism".
