>>7309280TL;DR: Basically, it's a human nature problem and the solution typically used to remediate it (religion) is no longer valid for most westerners.
Explanation: There's really no reason to live once come to terms with the undeniable fact that solipsism is the only logically consistent philosophy. It's no coincidence that people who are happiest (women, children, Muslims) are also by far the most ignorant and lacking in critical thinking skills. A religious motivator can counter this (because religion is based on faith, not reason), but Protestantism put an end to that in the west. Translating the Bible from Latin (taught only to the clergy and upper class) into the common language of the peasants was punishable by death for a reason - once you read it, you realize the whole thing's bullshit and the scam is done. Islam gets around this by making an entire religion of purity spiraling where you're encouraged to murder anyone who isn't a holier-than-thou faggot and that's why it's the world's largest religion, but I digress.
