These are all huge political problems that are impossible to grasp at a time - either because they interact with eachother in unexpected ways or are overly complex with lots of moving parts.

Ask yourself what can you do to your immediate surroundings... If you can one lay one brick, so be it. One brick.

anon, someone in your position is more able to make a change in the world than 90% of people ever will
consider all those things you listed as possible motivation, maybe

failing that, your best bet is still to take advantage of the position you've attained & try to play on your own terms, create/protect things you care about & which make you grateful

at any point you can make an infinite bullet point list of things which are fucked, and of things which are good
things could also be infinitely better or infinitely worse, no matter what position you're in
it's not really worth thinking about, just do what you can & try to remove things from your life which give you a headache & add things which make you grateful
if everyone collectively did this the world would become good


don't let the fucked state of the world make you pessimistic, and don't blame "humanity" or whatever else, those are scapegoats
the state of the world is caused by individual criminals & incredible weapons, it's not natural in any way
know that

they want you to relinquish all the power you have in this world & be dissuaded by the unassailable octopus
but it's self-fulfilling
never give up

reminds me of that scene in the dark crystal where the skeksis make creatures stare into the power of the crystal until their life essence is drained & they become dead husks

Otaku culture existed before the internet, it will keep going after the internet.

Stop looking outward and start looking inward. No one has ever lived a happy or meaningful life by chasing externals. If your sole concern in life was to make your own conduct principled, beautiful, compassionate, patient and just you would go through every day with unlimited possibilities for personal growth and achieving your goals. There's absolutely no point in looking out at the world and criticizing it before you've perfected yourself.

>UK censoring internet, banning SM/phones, etc., rest of world likely joining in
Not even relevant to you since you're US. Why would you give a shit. SM isn't getting banned in US, they're all US companies they need their profit. SM is fucking gay anyway

>Love & Deepspace scandal
Just googled, so a character got cancelled because fans didn't want more new characters. Why on fucking earth would you care about this gay shit

>Google banning sideloading
>recent HiAnime arrest

Just fucking use nyaa retard

>I fucking hate both US parties

You should hate the debt spiral your country is forced to face regardless of who's on the podium

>car-dependent suburbs and their consequences (and I'm not even going to pretend that's an American-only thing)

Huh? Just get a car or move somewhere with public transport. The fuck are you whining about this time

>the impossibility of affording anything for anyone, esp. relative to even our parents or even MILLENNIALS

More reasons why debt spiral is so fun

>goals becoming unrealizable, like the fucked up dating market makes it impossible to date anyone (and "return to tradition" to like courting, etc. I disdain for the same reason I disdain the anti-phone movement), or travel feeling increasingly unmotivating

What even are you complaining about, the modern dating market, and also the historical dating market, and also the anti-phones, and also travel, like what? Maybe you're just too ugly and nobody wants to touch you with a 10 foot pole, sucks to suck

>the realization that the Chinese race is so superior to the White race despite the latter's obvious dominance in arts etc

What? I'd say the Japanese have far more dominance/better in arts than any of them. How is that even relevant to race superiority? That has little relevance to actual genetics, but you aren't even using any proper measurement yourself, so. You're just making baseless claims.

>L&DS
because I'm an Asian man, and L&DS has been great Asian male rep - I've experienced plenty of this IRL

>mass internet censorship + sideloading ban
the vast majority of the population isn't going to become based / install Graphene / use a VPN, I'm afraid you seriously underestimate how cucked the average normie in America or just about any country is. And I know this better than you because I'm Chinese American and have visited family tons of times in China. As long as 95% of the population doesn't evade the Firewall, WHICH IS THE CASE, the Firewall ends up working.

>hating both US parties
then where the fuck do I go?

>suburban hell
this is an America-wide problem, and I already have a job in the burbs locked down that I need to drive to... rn what I'm to do is borrow my folks' car and live at home for a while (could be rest of 2026), then buy a car / move out at the same time (which sounds like a lotta money ngl)

>debt spiral
well wtf am I supposed to do? kms?

>dating market
ideal dating market IMO was probably after the 60s sexual revolution but before dating apps took over everything

>Chinese race
Just look at China they're mogging us in every aspect. Japan is a dying fossil and if I were a young Japanese I'd have nothing to hope for, unlike if I were Chinese.

>US decline at 2013
Out of curiosity: how old were you in 2013?

Why do you care about this lmao, are you a foid?

>>34693666
Garbage advice lol "just get a car"? I'm under the impression you creatures are just miserable but get offended when someone else admits it

>>34692908
Honestly OP, as someone who's on a really hard time of life: some things are really a wakeup call. I don't meant it as another person trying to blame you or double the responsibility on your shoulders, but as an actual advice, some things are becoming worse with no sign or changing, whereas others are not worth giving a damn about (and both often overlap). I trust you to do that discernment. As for dating since it's often what weights on us the most, emotionally: genuinely just avoid most of the rhetoric you see here. If you find constructive enjoyment in your life and work your confidence (notice which clothes and spaces make you more comfortable and loose), you already solve the biggest issues. No need to go looking for some bitch who lives off of trying to have others thirsting for them and is expecting idiots fighting for it, which is what you'd find in expensive parties.

>>34694266
I'm an Asian man, and this game's helping foids actually respect Asian men for once.

>>34694289
Part of the problem with dating ngl is that even if you doll yourself up and make yourself as attractive as can be to the point that it actually works in pulling hoes... they're hoes. Half the women these days are fucking cuck foids who I wouldn't wanna date or marry. They just suck and either are brown or ACT brown.

This is why I enjoyed going back to China earlier this year. The hoes there aren't sorority girl pussy foid cucks.

>>34694355
Reading what you said, I just realized finding good people also results from improving yourself. You'll learn which spaces are worth participating in, you'll more accurately pick shitty traits from others, you're just going to better filter your social interactions in general. Funny how obvious it sounds in hindsight. I think a big issue most people have is that they aren't willing to admit they're better off on their own path, as opposed to chasing the rat race and pretending they'll eventually be the piece of shit they envy. It's so much easier and happier not to engage with the norms in general, and part of it is molding your expectations.

>>34694378
IDK. Many things about America I find dystopian. But many things about places other than America I find dystopian.

I can improve myself all I want, and yet all I keep running into are the same people. I just hate being stuck in this stupid suburb full of people I know from high school or their friends or their friends' friends.

Literally every single day in my life I am reminded of how horrible America and Americans are. I literally don't have anything to really even look forward to. Women? They all fucking suck, and none will ever match my "ex" from college (if you can even call her one, it was so fucking retarded). Literally January 2023 and to this day I still haven't gotten over it.

(And lemme be absolutely clear before you mistake me for the next Elliot Rodger: I no longer want a "white girlfriend". I just don't want a black or brown one - or a black or brown idolizing one.)

>>34694478
Yeah I won't deny your suffering from other americans, I'm brazilian lol so I guess you can imagine how well it relates. As for your ex, it always feels bad at first but with hindsight and life changes you'll eventually get over it, don't worry. But yeah, just don't let the feeling get too strong, if you notice it coming just ask yourself "why am I thinking this" without answering. I feel like this exercise helps

You probably can't prevent the internet from going to shit but you can prepare and just hoard whatever you care about.

"Love and Deepspace[a] is a Chinese mobile game [...]Love and Deepspace is an otome game rendered in 3D graphics.[2][3][...] The game is a live service game that uses a gacha system"

So it's something of zero value and people are getting upset about it?

>>34702400
are you even american lmao

dems are full of, like, new england white people who bitch about how awful they are, as well as like actual brown poor people / criminals in the inner city

while republicans are for hick rednecks from appalachia, and, like, cuban beaners who really wanna be white and so performatively imitate said rednecks and advocate for restricting immigration just to pull the ladder
