Exactly. The left doesn't have any morals or values or core beliefs. They switch their allegiances like changing their designer clothes. Their only goal is to destroy the status quo and they will betray any and every belief they hold dear to do it.

If I were a marxist, the identity politics shit would piss me off more than it does as whatever I am now. It lends itself more to upholding the status quo of the things that matter for a capitalist power structure to absorb every “oppressed” sub group the way it has. It even manages to redirect blame onto the working class lol. It is unreal.

is Chapo the end of the line? They're the finished product?

Are we stuck in a state of uncontested nihilism due to skeptical regress? Is there anything meaningful to take from it all at the end of the day? Or must we simply look elsewhere?

Evidence that philosophy has reached a dead end is the cultural milieu and institutions that exist today which evidence nothing but decay, cynicism, brutality, deception, and showmanship. It would appear that if I should read anyone it is Spengler.

Why should I waste my time reading Western thinkers when I could skip to the punchline (nihilism) and look for truth and meaning in fideism and mysticism?
