i don't need to list them out, anyone here knows what i mean

i mean -- just a specific example - this post. i'm going thru it rn, and it's so nice that on lemmy i can be in my feels, type this, post, and hopefully people see it. but if i try to post this on reddit, it'll get removed from place after place, even shit like /r/depression has fucking automod horseshit making it a goddamn tribulation to post a post!

but that's very granular. the internet is dying -- no, actively being killed by venture capitalist scum. the planet is dying. democrats are running 90 yo joe brandon again, there is no meaningful progressive pushback anywhere because that's how the system is designed to work. voting or calling reps is akin to writing a letter to santa. actual protest meets militarized police.

fun living through the end times.

Things are bad, and they will get worse. We are nearing a tipping point towards absolute chaos, and after said chaos, we have the chaos to reflect upon for building a better world. Things aren't in turmoil because majority wants turmoil, it's in turmoil because it upkeeps the status quo, and most people who are unwilling to change the status que are being misled to believe the status quo is okay. It is just part of the cyclic nature of the world and human existance, and eventually, when the tipping point is reached, things change to better fast, and radically.
