I mean, saying that you stand for "nothing" is better than saying that you stand for "self-interest", at least when analyzing rhetoric and such. Do you catch my drift? Like, it's technically incorrect, but it sounds better.
Yes. However, he means that I stand for nothing of value-although value is inherently subjective, all things we value go back to self interest in the end.
I mean, your statement makes sense... given a certain set of epistemic and metaphysical assumptions, namely radical empiricism and metaphysical nihilism, not shared by most in this thread. Heck, I disagree with your epistemic and metaphysical postulates, I'm merely pointing this out out of courtesy, since I foresee... well, another argument about epistemology and metaphysics occurring soon, and I wish for you (as much as I find your epistemology and metaphysics to be, well, wrong) to be at least somewhat prepared. However, it's likely that I won't be able to participate, since one of my neighbors passed away due to cancer a few days ago and the viewing is being held tonight, which I shall be attending. I shall see y'all later, I guess?
