>Then you my friend have no understood Cioran. He was an irrational thinker.
I get that. But Cioran doesn't represent the whole pessimism. He himself just wants to write to cope with being born and to make people think about his aphorisms. Thus he himself contradicts himself frequently.
Pessimism on the other hand is logical. I haven't found something where they contradict themselves.
>Cioran not antinatalist, but moral relativist skeptic
I don't see how the quote explicitly talks about his view on antinatalism.
>"Why bring into being a creature destined to suffer? To exist is to be condemned." (On The Heights of Despair)
Look at the quote OP gave. Look at the name of the book. It seems pretty obvious to me that he hates being born and doesn't want others to suffer the same fate. You can get this feeling in all of his works.
>Logic is mental castration.
>It is a modern disease that "logic"=being correct.
How? Care to explain your thoughts?
"A or not A is always true" seems pretty logical to me. That is just what logic comes down to.
Do you next want to tell me that Wittgenstein was wrong with his "The world is all that is the case." The truth is always logical.
And btw. A guy I argued with about Cioran maybe last week used to quote the same way you do with the same quote. Are you the guy that said Cioran wants to go around killing people and that he wants everybody to kill themselves?
