I mean its all so tiresome, its all gone to shit. Music, TV, movies they're all just trash reinforcing the same narrative, and the ones that start out as different end up poisoned in the end because their initial difference makes them super popular, and then that super popularity kills them.
Not that long ago, i hoped the best for people, for society, i had faith they would make the right decision and turn society around for the better. But they didn't.
Now i dont care, now i dont necessarily want people to come by hard times or harm, but there is no longer any reason to warn them of any incoming hard times or harm, they made their choice and they chose poorly, they deserve what they get.
Fuck people, look after your own liberty and your own prosperity.
you got to have some type of driving purpose in your life. i don't know what to tell you user. even if you don't have hope to gain friends and maybe even form a half viable intimate relationship, surely there is some skill or passion of yours that you can pursue and profit from (eventually at least).

There are plenty of good books and movies and lots of good music from before it all went to shit. I don't watch TV and I practically live in the past when it comes to media these days. Outdoor stuff is good too. Just live life and do your own thing. While you're living in reality, you might come across some like-minded people, or you might not. The world's pretty fucked.
Benjamin Butler
You're not wrong, so now what. Every redeeming feature of society is being lost. What do?
Levi King
Agreed, not OP. What gets me out of bed in the AM is knowing I'll get a many mouth loads of creamy warm cum. I love sucking cock and getting oral creampies.
That rush of warmth in the back of my throat is what keeps me going in life.
Gavin Perry
Agreed. There is still good music, movies and books being made. Just the ratio of 'high quality' non commercial dog-gizz is rather lopsided. There is even decent TV shows. But like you I don't watch TV.
Agreed. I see OP's point slightly (not is all art is shit now) but that it is becoming increasingly difficult to get people to engage in meanful action to change our current situation.
I think the root cause is multi-faceted, but surely readily available amount of entertainment along with most people have all basic needs met is a massive obstacle.

You're plunged deep in the Nigredo phase... just listen to your soul and get rid of all the material bullshit.
Thomas Miller
Exactly. I'm not complaining about the decline so much as I'm a little lost as to what to do with all the undedicated time. I don't need to work. I have everything I need and more. What now? What's the point? I'm becoming a bit too sadistic and mean for my tastes since I'm getting bored. What the fuck happened?
Joshua Brooks
Nah, the longer we go along the more advanced things become. Technology to social situations, shit is changing and it's interesting to watch even if it's in a direction I don't like.
Gotta see shit through, I was gifted consciousness and I'm not going to let some basic bitch ass understanding of human autonomy keep me from enjoying my big fake anime titty girls and jerking off.
Fucking, read a book or something dude.
Adam Cooper
Go volunteer. Get s job. Wut da fuck do you want nigger? Talk to a psychogolist.
Connor Russell
Don't be an ass. I'm just curious what other people are doing to find meaning. It's not as if I need you to solve my problems so it's like you're on the hook for anything so drop the attitude if you got nothing to share. What are you doing to handle the decline?
Grayson Brown
I think we made a miatake by giving smart phones to dumb girls...

Ethan Collins
I have great news for you. You had no affect on anything to begin with, so you giving up wont change anything.
Jordan Evans
Seriously. How are you handling shit falling apart right in front of our eyes? I'm curious. Are you ignoring it or do you have a strategy?
Logan Rogers
You don't actually know that. History doesn't support this claim. He's not special as in "snowflake gonna change the world" but history supports the concept that the most unlikely motherfuckers have made weird changes to the world unexpectedly. Marx wasn't exactly a mental giant but his little red book of communist wet dreams fucked over the world in ways no one could foresee whereas Einstein made very little tangible impact on modern life.
Justin Collins
Eh yeah but I just don’t really care anymore, I try to stay away from people who watch tv constantly and are straight up airheads. People aren’t that bad, just live life outside of technology and you’ll be okay. Stop being a grumpy faggot OP. Don’t take life too serious.. it’s just shits and giggles for the experience and of course not being homeless and having food to eat, a gf etc.
Jordan Watson
Give up now. It's not worth it. The world's most powerful supercomputer totally devoted to discovering strong AI goes online in the next couple of years. The human race will become biological slaves to this superior intellect. We done fucked up.
Luke Bailey
Yes, I'm done.

The decline is unstoppable: there is too much momentum, Western Civilization is circling the drain. Adults are taking their behavioral cues from children, face-down in their cell-phones huffing the farts of their own self-obsessed narcissism. At least you do realize you are "becoming a bit too sadistic and mean" for your own tastes, which not generally the case with the rest of society. Most people don't have this level of self-awareness, and continue to gleefully push the envelope of rudeness and self-centered bullshit in ways that were not encouraged before the rot of Political Correctness took hold. For now, I'm trying to avoid people as much as possible. I don't see the need in further producing/creating anything lasting for the benefit of society, as entertainment/cultural information etc will be of little value in the near future when the shit is fully in the fan. Meanwhile, the curse of this foresight is making it difficult to find motivation to even entertain myself. For now, I'm making the best of the daily schadenfreude and wondering how soon civilization is going to hit the wall.
Bentley Collins
Can you be more specific? What messages in modern media do you find so troubling?
Gavin Anderson
sounds like another nitpicker who didn't like the latest episode of game of thrones.
Christopher Ramirez
Smart phones in the hands of dumb people is one of the worst things to happen to Western Civilization in recent years.
Ummmmmm, put it into my art. This year decided, my focus is documeting the times vs changing them.
I still do some activism. But overall the tide is for apeing out. But I keep hope that enough of us will over come this shit. You can't lose faith. But that doesn't mean I'm not a realist.
Plus I study history. Not the first time we've when sideways.
Well maybe one is hard but two niggers surly made a massive impact. For good or worse you can't discount want Marx and Engles set in motion. Two monkeys that's all.
Lincoln King
Have you watch anything on TV or watched z movie lately?
Most OP here either. But here's a softball.
The recent proliferation of comic book movies. It's sets out the narrative that in tought times the only solution is ONE magical person emegring from the crowd with SUPERHUMAN powers to save us all.
When in fact truth is. As has always been, only when many people come togeather, can massive problems be tackled. These movies numb people to be passive.
Agreed. It really did a fucked number. The spread of the internet to the dumb hasn't done us any good.
Aaron Brooks
You sound like a disillusioned hipster 'intellectual' who likes to blame everyone else for their unhappiness. You want everyone else to be better? Start with yourself, you narcissistic loser.
