There should be a word, and I’m sure it exists in German or something, for when you agree with someone’s assertions but simultaneously know for a fact they’re just doomer-venting and sound like an edgy teen trying to describe to their mom why they wear black.
I already said I agree with the assertions, I just don’t agree with the bleak, hopeless, roll-over-and-expose-belly-for-master resignation. We’ve struggled through worst in the past, and generally if you look at all metrics, our quality of life and freedom has only increased over the last several centuries and most unrest and destabilization are just the pendulum swinging, but that pendulum doesn’t wind down, history shows it gradually moves forward.
We still owe it to the people who will come after us to do all we can, we still can see change in our lifetimes towards better outcomes we can still help push the needle, we can see grand outcomes when we actually try, we can still involve ourselves to the extent of our ability and comfort, and/or we can have individually great experiences and set aside what media shoves in your face all day, learn to diet and just focus on the problems for a certain amount of time every day.
Go socialize, meet people, create love and safety around yourself with others and see sights in the world while you can.
Yes, shit is going to get bad, maybe worse than anything we’ve seen so far. But the mountain of skulls we live on to have gotten to this next struggle shouldn’t be wasted.
I’m an older person. I have a family and friends and I do lots of things but I’ve also seen my friends and family ground up in our system. I agree humans have survived a lot but we really can’t underestimate the dire situation we are in now. We can not allow this genocide to continue on our soil it will only escalate if we don’t stop it.
