Hope is just “optimistic nihilism”.

It’s not feeling guilty for existing and just experiencing being human.

Humanoids went millions of years collaborating before language, building muscle memory for enough heat, food, water, etc. and navigating 3D space.

IMO human language is behind all human atrocity of scale. Implanting and reinforcing hallucinations. It’s 2D written form decouples us from interaction with realities color gradients, range of sounds, distribution of matter. It’s thought in a box; constrained to socially acceptable list of appropriate semantics.

Be optimistic but also don’t care if we all die. Simple framework that eschews all the human language religion relies on. We sure feel like we accomplished something learning English but humans were tackling our real challenges before language came about. Language processing feels like work but it’s really just parroting tropes that are meaningless.
