Are we ever going to find genuine sanity in society again? - Did 2014 really break us?

[CreamyHerman’s]

Big Bang Theory premiered in Sept. 2007.

Coincidence? I think not!!

Maybe you're looking for sanity in the world when in all actuality the majority of it is, it's just you are so out-to-lunch that anything normal seems insane to you.

The term 'white' was actually invented due to social Darwinism, during the industrial revolution

Like legit, do you think the American South, pre-civil war, pre-industrialization didn't think of the black and white divide?

they invented racial science to explain their position in society and somehow assuage their conscience that it was 'natural' for them to be at the top.

Slave owners saw themselves as morally righteous as they claimed the Bible justified theirs subjugation of an inferior race.

What do you think the ESG (Environmental, Social Justice, Governance) ratings of corporations created by Larry Fink, a man who single handedly controls $1 trillion dollars and has turned the housing market into rental hell and is probably a source of massive human misery and destruction? Why do you think he did that? (By the way, Nestle has a high ESG score even though the CEO has said multiple times clean water is not a human right. You know, something that is necessary to survive). Because he is obsessed with finding the 'social good' of corporations (lol there isn't any).

Yes, but it's not ideological, it is for money. The CEO of Disney was happy to pay DeSantis even after proposing the "Don't Say Gay" Bill, it wasn't until Disney employees threatened a mass walkout that he pulled his money and made a public statement.

Also look at the slate of articles coming out saying that unionization would 'destroy diversity' and 'progressive initiatives'. I'm the crazy one? This world is fucking crazy.

So let's look at the organizers of these new unions:

All of those brave union workers fighting against the woke anti-poor pro-degeneracy companies.

I would have thought half of the shit that's happened since 2021 was too crazy to happen just before it happened. Let's give it a few months and then see if he's got a few screws loose...

You're right, a large portion of people thinking a pandemic does not exist as it's happening, republican regulars calling for the genocide of an entire group of people, the hiking of gas prices despite making record profits, the increase in hate crimes, the repealing of Roe v. Wade. Yeah, maybe you would have thought that stuff is insane a few years ago, but I guess that's not what you mean, right?

I think we're well and truly in for a massive western world collapse. There's too many parallels to the late roman empire and weimar germany to ignore.

It's unlikely but if the western world ever had a true crisis that destroyed it's influence overnight quickly it would not be a Roman Empire situation, it would be a Bronze Age Collapse style catastrophe. With globalization and interdependency, so many countries have Sharmerica and company as their surrogate economy/military, and even it's supposed enemies need goods from it.
If it all was gone overnight, not a single country would be spared from the fallout, and several developing nations would collapse.
Now while trannies and co represent societal decay and shit, they are not enough to cause this scenario, at least for now.

Now now, we all know that blacks were HAPPY to be slaves and that slave owners are the ones who deserved reparations after the evil North convinced niggers to turn on their benevolent masters who were only putting them in their proper place under God and Jesus.

Wrong! Racial superiority was because of WOKE ATHEISM!!! Nobody would ever go to the Bible to subjugate or belittle any group of people! Oh, except for prostitutes, petty criminals, and LGBT people, those are ok according to me.

 

[Flavius Anthemius]

If it all was gone overnight, not a single country would be spared from the fallout, and several developing nations would collapse.

Globalisation would basically have to crumble, and the needs and wants of society would have to drastically change, most likely because of population dispersion and the flaws in the economic system. Tbh I think we are heading in that sort of direction already as we see the United States basically pulling out from the world stage and not getting involved in another Iraq/Afghanistan situation again, but it won't be because of some new war on a global scale or some natural disaster catastrophe, it won't pull in every single country on the planet in, but when countries start getting more greedy and selfish, failing to address the shortcomings of massive income/wealth inequity, hoarding more resources for themselves etc. I think that's when you'll see nations true colours show, it will be a every man for himself type scenario, new states will rise from the ashes as regional powers, but we might not be alive to see that happen (maybe) so I guess just enjoy the good times while it lasts.

Anyway, with how information is exchanged these days, it really does seem like the "selection for societal sanity" shit in MGS2 has really come to fruition, there is no going back on the damage that's been done and we've given too many privileges/rights to people who quite frankly shouldn't be allowed to type on a keyboard, call me a pessimist but there isn't really anything we can do unless the people up top who make these decisions pull their pants up and make choices that benefit the online world as a whole and not make it a detriment.

The world might be doomed in the long term and the online social media boom might just be a mild precursor to that, but I wouldn't worry too much, what information you see being exchanged is just a small subsection of "bad news" on the internet, I mean unless aliens start invading or the lizard people announce their plans for world domination we'll endure but things will look different but that's normal, considering how things develop these days.

there's kind of a network pressure effect. This was especially noticable in young people on tumblr. You were fed a constant drip of your peer's opinions. You were rewarded with dopamine hits in the form of likes and reblogs if you said things people liked, and attacked voraciously if you expressed heterodox opinions, even on stupid shit that wasn't important.

You are just describing female nature.

Internet didn't cause women to exist and the acceleration of this stuff was already well underway with affirmative action, women voting.

People grasp around the elephant in the room, it's the Internet, it's Gamergate, it's Trump, it's young people, it's Tumblr, it's Demonic possession etc but the elephant is big vagina and its simps. (Note that big vagina does not mean literal women it also encompasses feminized males like homosexuals, pedophiles, transsexuals and all the way up to black men crying about muh BLM I didn't do nuffin etc, conversely you can have women who are buck broken by men and don't behave this awfully hence big vagina wanting women's "liberation")

 

[Mayor Adam West]

The West hasn't been a sane society since 1517. We're fucked.

 

[Syaoran Li]

The West hasn't been a sane society since 313. We're fucked.

Fixed that for you, bro.

 

[Sweetpeaa]

I really don't think it's ever been that sane in terms of toxic internet politics. We see things through rose colored glasses when we look to the past. Things are worse now but that doesn't mean they weren't bad before.

I remember finding political threads in the 2000's during the stem cell Michael j fox controversy in 2006 that were absolutely insane.

People were just as mean, vindictive and short sighted back then as they are now. They haven't changed that much. Anything involving a "fetus" has been triggering for people for decades - just go look at the stem cell threads of the past. They are crazy. Stem cell research back then was what abortion banning was today. Back then it was stem cell research banning.

I was thinking about this today, as much I hate it and it's not politically correct to say, giving women the right to vote and a lot of power to shape society = women just being manipulated by men anyway but in a way that makes things worse, because now a minority of men are able to push forward evil agendas that wouldn't hold water with men, but women can be emotionally manipulated into falling for it.

Look at Trump and how all the media attacks against him were purely based on hardcore emotional manipulation and not anything logical.

Look at how the world's most famous female politician, Hillary Clinton, is an obvious scumbag that makes your skin crawl.

Sorry ladies, just doesn't seem like certain leadership positions are what women are naturally equipped for, maybe I'm wrong, but it also seems like women who really bust their asses to be CEOs or whatever aren't even happy anyway, so what's even the point?

I don't think it's 'evil weevil men manipulating those poor women'. Women are being manipulated, yes, but I'd say it's partially because they use it for the sake of their egos,

Yea, what is the point of achieving financial independence in a capitalist society and the freedom that comes with not having to worry about money?

Also, how do you know how happy they are? How many have you talked to? Had a drink with or broke bread with?

 

[Dom Cruise]

They don't need to worry about that, all they need to do is marry a man that makes enough income and BOOYA they don't have to worry about money.

Now there are plenty of exceptions, sometimes a woman will need to work too because the man doesn't make enough money, but that's not a matter of "financial independence", what woman in her right mind want to be independent from men? We're literally made for each other.

I'm not ultra hardcore when it comes to this, there's plenty of careers I think are appropriate for women, I just don't see the point in women being CEOs or politicians, men are natural born leaders.

We need to start getting in touch with nature and not our idiotic pretense.

Or at the very least, if you really, really want to be a CEO or a politician then you have to earn it like men do, don't expect an easier time of it just because you have a vagina, it's not obligatory that we have women in these positions.

Also, how do you know how happy they are? How many have you talked to? Had a drink with or broke bread with?

I can make an educated guess because they're not doing what nature put them on this Earth to do, make and raise children, when they're old and grey and they don't have any kids to show for it or don't have a close enough relationship with them because they spent so much time working, they'll regret it.

Now I'm sure there's exceptions, there's always exceptions, but on average a woman is going to be happier if she does what nature intends instead of fighting against it.

But while I can only speak so much for older generations, one thing I do know is these younger women you see with the dyed hair, the nose rings etc are absolutely fucking miserable in every way and can only survive by popping antidepressants like candy.

 

[Wormy]

Because men NEVER leave their wives, right?

Now there are plenty of exceptions, sometimes a woman will need to work too because the man doesn't make enough money, but that's not a matter of "financial independence", what woman in her right mind want to be independent from men? We're literally made for each other.

That'd fly if you didn't allow men to be independent of women.

I'm not ultra hardcore when it comes to this, there's plenty of careers I think are appropriate for women, I just don't see the point in women being CEOs or politicians, men are natural born leaders.

Ummmmm, MONEY, POWER? That's not enough of a point?

How many have you had work under you? Men, I mean. Having them under me has shown that ain't the case.

Leadership is a rare trait among people, PERIOD.

We need to start getting in touch with nature and not our idiotic pretense.

And yet funnily enough, some natures are more rewarded and independent than others. Ain't it funny that men's natures get them more rewards and glory than women's....

Or at the very least, if you really, really want to be a CEO or a politician then you have to earn it like men do, don't expect an easier time of it just because you have a vagina, it's not obligatory that we have women in these positions.

I agree as far as that goes, but at least unlike you, I'm keen to give the gal a shot at it.

I can make an educated guess because they're not doing what nature put them on this Earth to do, make and raise children, when they're old and grey and they don't have any kids to show for it or don't have a close enough relationship with them because they spent so much time working, they'll regret it.

So any woman who isn't at home knee deep in filthy diapers and doing unpaid maid service isn't doing what nature intended? I'd say nature gave them a bum deal and they'd be idiots to just succumb for it.

You also don't account for women who do the housewife thing and are depressed. Or do you think those dont' exist?

Also, again, why are men allowed options for their aspirations but women are allowed only one?

But while I can only speak so much for older generations, one thing I do know is these younger women you see with the dyed hair, the nose rings etc are absolutely fucking miserable in every way and can only survive by popping antidepressants like candy.

And what makes you think forcing them into unpaid breeding and maid service will fix all that? What sort of threat would you even use to keep them there?

Don't worry so much about nutheads, they'll get their due. You're your own sailor in the treacherous seas, man your sails!

 

[Little oak tree]

I think there's something about the Internet that makes people go crazy. I don't think it's a coincidence that society started becoming weird right around the same time the average person started using the Internet sometime in the mid-2000s.

We've always been crazy as shit but with the internet we can now archive and witness it in all it's splendor.
We have access to information as never before. The problem maybe is the saturation of information a lot of lead.
But everything is natural, this madness is natural everything is fucking insanity forever and ever.
People that believe in some golden age just used to live in a privileged closed community in blissful ignorance that they were not absolute.
The world has always been the same, the horrors and wonders are infinite.

I agree to an extent. Weirdness and depravity has always existed, no argument from me there, the difference is that in the past it would be done behind closed doors in the privacy of one's own home. Anyone who tried to bring their weird fetishes out in public would be prosecuted or possibly committed. They certainly wouldn't be given a platform to spread it to children, which is literally what's happening now.

The more closed and secretive the more stagnant and filthy.
The same or worse depravity happened but on the shadows, why is that better?
And I'd say that not even that, they just deluded themselves to believe it.
It's like what we usually think about Freud now, that he developed his theories because he couldn't accept that pedophilia and incest were pretty common and dismissed them as fantasies.
Our past generations were fucking hypocrites. This explosion and cultural prolapse is only the consequence of all that repression and incapability of acknowledging our nature.

lol, this is actually how some people see motherhood.

Getting more and more blackpilled on that finding sanity again thing guys.
