What the fuck even is the point anymore? I'm not even just talking about politics anymore, I'm just talking in general. What's the point in anything when the average person is a creature of pure evil with zero principles and zero value?
Don't get me wrong, it's not like I want to end my own life or something. But what the fuck am I supposed to do in this hellhole of a world anymore? I don't even want to take lives of others, it would make literally no difference in the grand scheme of things. But if I could push a button and just end all of existence, I would do it a thousand times over right now. That well-known (online at least) African proverb "the child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth" just keeps echoing in my head today. Even communities that I myself create are not free of this. It's ALL people, isn't it? Even when I try my best, I can't seem to find anyone worth my trust.
Not to mention the global situation. That only shows that this is not a thing on a small scale, this applies to the whole world.
This is the part where you put down the keyboard and go outside.
No really.
The internet has this uncanny ability to make you shoulder the world's burdens. Everything wrong with the world is at your fingertips, which can make you feel responsible. This is a straight ticket to massive depression that helps nobody. Is the outlook bleak? Yes. Is therr anything you can do about it? Likely not. The best you can do about ot is prepare and count your blessings. We're not stacking bodies, we're not facing a military invasion, we aren't being drafted into a pointless war. Despite all the blackpills, life is still really fucking good right now.
Go outside and interact with your community. Catch up with friends and family. Be with your loved ones. Maybe even pick up a hobby (musical instruments can be very theraputic). Take a vacation from the culture war. It will do wonders for your sanity.
It brings to mind a poem I once found, which I reckon we could all do to hear.
*"When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world.
I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to change my nation.
When I found I couldn't change the nation, I began to focus on my town. I couldn't change the town and as an older man, I tried to change my family.
Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can change is myself, and suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my family. My family and I could have made an impact on our town. Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world."*
