Most people’s answer to this question is an Implied choice. They hold some answer to be true even though it isn’t ever stated out loud, possibly not stated to themselves either. Very rarely does this Implied choice require defending.

Not all implied choices require time to justify and defend, but this one seems fundamental. It doesn’t even feel obvious to me that the implied choice is shared by a vast super-majority

Certainly most people act as though Something Matters, but do those actions align with their answer to this question?

For the sake of discussion, everyone seems to take it as an axiom that Something Matters. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen anyone attempt to push a perspective that is truly agnostic to any outcomes (what I call True Perspective). Yet, I haven’t seen this axiom made explicit anywhere (though I probably haven’t looked hard enough).

The idea that Something Matters is such a fundamental building block of every action we take as humans, it is unfortunate that we have not attempted to be explicit about.
