Pop Nihilists Invent a Devil

pop nihilists BE LIKE “the uncaring cruelty of the universe is soooo scary” “my brother in christ” YOU MADE that shit up. the universe lacks both cognition and volition and therefore can neither be uncaring nor cruel — you claim to believe in no god yet you invented a devil to scare yourself

A large sandwich is shown beneath captions mocking pop nihilists who describe the universe as cruel and uncaring. The punchline argues that an unconscious universe cannot be cruel, and that calling it a cruel force contradicts atheism by inventing a devil-like enemy. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to overly dramatic nihilist claims. EN: A large sandwich is shown beneath captions mocking pop nihilists who describe the universe as cruel and uncaring.
