Stop doom posting, get a hobby that is actual and physical, make friends that also have hobbies that are actual and physical, volunteer with a charity, do actions not just words, step away from the negative internet, learn to laugh more, gravitate towards positive examples of society and not negative and stop bring ready to lay down and die.
I love this site but there's so many exhausting whiny faggots who lose their way and think being accelerationist/black pilled/ no hope why bother-ers is the best way.
No. You aren't unique, this conflict atm isn't unique and it will pass. Like it has done in all of history before you.
Find old school lolcows to laugh at - contribute - stop doomering. Turn off the T.V.
I work in politics, it's what consumes my professional life. But I've learned you have to shut it off and bring positivity in. You can't wait for society to calm down, coz it never will. It's the nature of humanity.
The riots and associated bullshit feels doom like because everyone is magnifying it by constantly talking about it, watching it and consuming it.
Stop doing that and do something else. Like making Kiwi Farms amusing again.
My doom isn't from watching TV or shit. I actually pretty much get my politics by being forcefully exposed to it, or this thread. My dooming is coming from actually interacting and talking with regular people. You say it's all the same shit all over again, but no, the world has and will continue to change in permanent ways. We ended widespread, legal slavery in the west, an institution that has been around forever, we entered the information age where we can communicate across the world in seconds, we now get most of our property sent to us in the mail as opposed to going to a retail chain and buying it. It's not just a cycle, shit changes and can change drastically.
It's not even the riots themselves that concern me it's the reflection of where our culture is. The people in it. Their characters, their interests, how well you can get along with them. Fuck the political shit, I'm interested in the personal shit and who we are and how we grow as people, etc. We need other people to develop and improve our own lives. What happens when all those people are gone and are walking bags of shit? The problem with all this is is that I'm spending my life in a society filled with moral panics where there isn't even really a place to escape. Maybe someday things will make sense, but the good years our lives will pass us by.
It's hard to be a social animal, a proper human, in a world where your conspecifics are so profoundly broken and ill in their minds.
Furthermore, the rot goes deeper than just politics. Music, movies, everything is shit, and now every other person is a fucking "nerd" or "geek" that swallows up pop culture. I don't like where pop culture has gone. In the past if were some way, you could just go to the place where there would be some people like you. I think music peaked mid 60s - very early 90s and movies peaked 70s-90s. Books, our best author is JK Rowling? I think in all dimensions we are a dark age of a society. I think the internet has had some very profound changes on humanity that we couldn't have anticipated but nonetheless are there.
Look, I know things may return to normal, but they've been getting worse and worse my adult life and I don't see them improving soon. The silver lining I do see is the rise of a new counter-culture that isn't afraid to be edgy. We got the punks and then goths from disgruntled youth that felt they didn't belong and that they were suffocated by stodgy and uptight British society, I'm desperately hoping for a new counter-culture that that is apolitical at its core but willing to tweak the noses of stuffy mainstream society. I just hope it doesn't end up faggy like the SJW ugly rainbow bullshit. I'll just be too old to play a part in it if it does come about.
If you want to talk about cows, I invite you to my
Delena Christ thread on the prospering grounds. There's a woman that is trying to start her own religion while eating her own shit, spreading it all over her, and also talking about how she would vote for Donald Trump if he did the same. She's gotten kind of passed over but I think she is quite the gem.
