  • This is very much it.

    I’m not trying to dismiss OP either. I’m glad they finally notice. But for a huge population of the world, it’s ALWAYS been there. There’s been a lot of evil shit. It’s just it was never on their doorstep until now.

    But this isn’t a “The world is all doom and gloom”.

    There is a significant amount of positive upswings. Looking in the past 10,000 years, we are absolutely in a better era. We can make jokes and shit post about it, but the average person’s quality of life back then no where matched what we are doing today. We tend to be relatively safe. We can get a variety of food anywhere.

    Humans unfortunately only have a small window of time and don’t see it, but there’s a lot of good in the past hundred years.








  • American here. Maybe I’m going through the five stages of grief and now I’m at acceptance.

    Everything in your first paragraph sounds accurate and maybe something that probably needed to happen. America as the World Police is/has been a problem. There were some positives, but a lot of negatives.

    The sooner America gets off the stage, the better. We don’t deserve the recognition. We can’t even feed our own people and yet wield tremendous influence internationally, and maybe it’s a positive thing that it ends soon.





  • I’m sure it’s some psychology name to it.

    Thinking through it from my perspective, it’s because we put up barriers with anything new.

    First thought: “Does this fit with what I know this musician for?”

    Second thought: “Does this hit the vibe or energy I want?”

    Third thought: “What is the hook or thing that makes it memorable?”

    If any of them fail, I immediately feel disgusted. Not to say I won’t change my mind.
