How do I stop projecting my absolute misery onto otherwise normal people, especially those in youtube videos or whatever? A part of me always thinks they are just miserable pieces of shit who put on tons of masks and aren't ever actually genuine, every smile laugh all of it just fake and that they are actually miserable? Why am I like this? How do I stop? Emphasis on why because I am curious. Projection is so weird.

If you weren't a retard, you could differentiate between the real and the fake youtubers. Not everyone is a silly people pleaser. You're supposed to lead, not follow.

Okay, I have genuine issues with this statement that unless there is a whole cosmology justifying what you just said

Is unparalleled bs told by normies when confronted

>unless there is a whole cosmology justifying what you just said
That cosmology is called not being autistic and having emotional intelligence.

Im not OP btw

Emotional intelligence, yeah right, another term without further evidence of what youre trying to paint

I am fed up with this rhetoric and unless you actually care to help, might be less vague and superbly pretentious

You have to do what we introverts call a pro gamer move and not talk to people at all.

Can't project misery onto people if there're no people in your life. Think, OP, think.

The reason they are able to wear the mask and have fun with it is because they have fun with it. They understand that the more seriously you take yourself, the harder the rules become, the harder life becomes. They don't care for the hard road of life, they prefer comfort and ease and jovial proclivity.

For people who take things too seriously, who take the hard road, yes there's something to admire their. Cynicism and jadedness is a marker for intellect. And it been said, those with more wisdom have twice as much sorrow. All true.

Except one last thing: There is a time and place for taking yourself and/or life seriously. And if you have no control over the time and place and you are ceaselessly hard of heart and sardonic and cynical with no brakes on the train, it no longer suggests intellect. It suggests a broken spirit.
