(Any/all) I get nosebleeds alot, big bug enjoyer, garlic eater, all my homies want you to have hope in a better tomorrow
I think why I find this rise in nihilistic violence so interesting and horrifying is that it’s mainly driven by despair. Violence not motivated by anger at the world, but just pure despair that corrodes you until you become this ball of violence, it’s awful and shows how much we have to fix

A lot of people think that societal change can only occur via institutional change so the minute it becomes clear that said institutions will not save us they fall into “well shit nothing we can do but roll over and wait for death” it’s like a whole other level of learned helplessness

Just sincerely wish they’d fuck of into the sunset to create their own misanthropes paradise while the rest of us actually try and make things better with love and kindness in our hearts for ourselves, our planet, and our fellow humans

I hate these types of environmentalist with every fiber of my being. Just such a fucking blight on the environmentalist movement.

To clarify it though I’m not shaming these folks for being depressed, I am shaming them for trying to drag others down into that same pit and framing their thoughts as truth. Shit not only prevents meaningful political action it’s also just prevents you from living life to the fullest. It’s sad :(
July 22, 2025 at 2:31 PM
Yeah, they also always frame it “it’s better to live this way” and then when you scroll through their post history it’s always shit like “I’m miserable, I’m lonely, but I cant change anything so I just have to go through the motions until I die I guess”

Peak rationalizing depression type shit

REAL

I swear if I see someone say shit like “Americans are like dumb docile cattle” again I’m gonna fucking throw something.

Like these folks don’t realize they’re also being dumb & docile, they think their apathy is unique and intelligent when it’s the same as any other suburban griller

It’s sad especially when it’s people despairing and spiraling being told by others that they’re just seeing the truth of the world. And having that spiral reinforced.

And it gets really bad when they start dipping into misanthropy and start commenting “humanity is a virus” type shit

Yea, the entire site feeds into pointless arguments and a site wide culture of smug “realism”

It’s like a cargo cult of realism which is mainly cynicism based on pop culture consumption. And then they act like they’re unique and smart for having the most cynic take on (insert topic)

I honestly would extend that to include a solid two thirds of the entire site lol, shit is a doomer cesspit or at least very fertile ground for forming those kinds of communities
July 21, 2025 at 11:36 PM
I don’t think so but shit is gonna get hairy as all fuck to say the least

Not to mention that he is covered in bandoliers. And the pit organs on his face are meant to look like a thin mustache

just so fucking peak

This segment was so ass I straight up completely disconnected myself from him and his community lmao

Just in time too cause right around the time his whole community really plunged into the nihilism and apathy (at least I think?) he tried to criticize

Got not time for that shit tbh

I see it as a complete betrayal of progressivism as a concept imo. Like if you concede that a better future is not possible your conceding to the main throughline of fascism.

Fuck that, a better future is possible and we need to fight tooth and nail to get to it, resistance is not futile
May 13, 2025 at 10:38 PM
For real, it’s honesty really sad when a person falls into a doomer mindset but it’s really scary and gross when they start willingly spreading that shit to other vulnerable people under the guise of “realism”

Like this shit actively harms people and kneecaps resistance

Bluesky has it moments but I do appreciate that the conversations around here at least give room for optimism even in these exceedingly bleak times, it helps to known or at least feel we have a shot at getting through this and finally things getting better for once lol
May 10, 2025 at 7:21 PM
Yea I notice specifically how bad Reddit is for this attitude, like I go into any even mid sized leftist community and see “why aren’t people resisting” paired with “we’re so cooked nothing can stop this, everything will get worse forever”, like god we need to work on morale so much
May 10, 2025 at 7:21 PM
I just want to live to see a day where people can have hope in a better future again. Without this suffocating cynicism of the modern day making the notion of anything less than a dystopic apocalyptic future as irrational
May 6, 2025 at 4:21 AM
I do feel this in my bones though, it really hurts to see so many folks my age just resigned to the future being shittier than the past. Like I have genuine hope that the future can be good, but the cynicism is suffocating and bleeds into my own nagging sense of doom.
May 6, 2025 at 4:21 AM
I feel like political doomerism is just not a productive mindset to be in. Like legitimately how can you actively push for progress when your headspace is “we’re all so fucked”. I ain’t gonna concede the future to the fascist, they can pry my solar punk ass future from my cold dead hands
