Thanks for sharing, I like this one!

That's very true, yes. And non-inherent hardly means "weak" or "inefficient".

Indeed, I do think the same. What I have trouble understanding, and even with close friends, is how "no inherent meaning to existence" seems to quickly become, in some cases, "no meaning to existence". I always tend to think this slide tends to exclude another possibility. A non-inherent meaning.

In my country, we simply call them "authoritarian communists" or, still today, "stals", for "stalinists".

I'm not qualified enough to approve or contest this statement, but I know for a /phisicistsfact that there was a time when great mathematicians were also great philosophers and they couldn't conceive doing one without the other (Leibnitz or Descartes, among many others). Why I changed and exactly how, I don't know, but I find it interesting.

Meh. Natural sciences and philosophy/methaphisics are quite closer/more intimately linked than you seem to think.
