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

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.

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.

Everybody can achieve absolute inner bliss, while still recognizing the world is in shambles.
Being overly concerned with the state of the world though is a sign of inner imbalance. It means you spend too much time thinking about other things, while there could be something wrong within you that you are avoiding

I don't mind driving but car-centric city planning leads to tons of wasted space and suddenly everywhere is a giant parking lot where instead you could have nice parks drizzled throughout. I think suburbs should be more dense so you can walk to the grocery store / other essential stores without a car. In my US city everyone is a fat landwhale. I'm always thinking "man if it wasn't impossible to go literally anywhere without a car I wonder if more folks would walk around and get some exercise in". Plus it hurts the ability to just run into people walking around and have spontaneous conversation

My will has been exhausted.

The lockdowns (2020) combined with discovering /pol/ as well as other alternative outlets and learning the truth has crippled me.

Always was an outcast but when I finished high school and went down the self-improvement road I had a plan and hope for the future. I spent 2 days in college before the lockdowns began and both men and women swarmed to me.
Weight loss, strenuous exercise, grunt jobs, martial arts, cold showers and austerity beyond normal, all self-imposed for years combined with surrogate and academic education on all practical subjects was my path to becoming what can only be referred to as Nietzsche's Overman.

But my will has been exhausted. The veil has been lifted. Reached the conclusion that I am a tax-cattle serf in a prison nation where everything human and masculine is either illegal or prohibitely expensive. I can't hunt, I can't own firearms, I can't drive a motorcycle at full speed. Can't be a man. My only options are to drink, smoke, do drugs and gamble. If you keep up on global events you can see everything and everyone has gradually become gayer and more retarded and insane. Consequently I have become more alienated and ostracized.

I'm fine with being alone. Fine with nobody remembering or caring about any important conversation. I'm fine with life being cruel and unfair. I'm fine with at 24 never having had a social circle, a woman, real friendship, or any other milestone. I said it'd get better. It's fine. Life doesn't guarantee "Happiness".

Being able to centralize things like stores is just more efficient. NYC has bodegas and things but they just aren't as good. The selection is ass because of pricy sq footage and if they had too much to pick from the produce would go bad before they sold it. You have to carry your groceries back home meaning more trips out to the store wasting your time.

What you are really complaining about is that life in the majority of the US is too well designed and therefore too comfortable which leads people to get fat and lazy. Making life harder is never going to be a popular issue.

The good news is that OP is a troll, most likely of the Yuropean kind. No American starts a post off like this kek. The ones who went to a good Uni will usually state the Uni’s name, as they tend to assume people have heard of it (even if that’s not what they assume, most alums make a point to brag). What’s more,

The one thing Americans take wholly for granted is their citizenship. They have no idea it’s something that’s largely coveted worldwide.

But anyway. Carry on, I suppose. Not like anyone here is old enough to know how to handle being trolled by some Yuropeein wanker.

I used to be that guy. No job, no clue, just stuck doomscrolling and wondering why nothing was working out. Life felt like a co-op game where I forgot to pick up a second controller. Then I tripped over something kind of wild the army's got this #QuickShip thing where you can pull in $40k just for signing and showing up. Not even joking.


I'm not trying to LARP as a drill sergeant or something. I'm just saying: if you're sitting around wondering how the hell to get ahead, this is one of those options that somehow exists but no one talks about unless your uncle brings it up at Thanksgiving. Except now they're throwing real money at people who are willing to step up.


I know what you're probably thinking. Military=war, scary stuff, not for me. I thought the same. Full-blown tech nerd over here, never touched a weight, social skills at 15%, maxed out in sarcasm and caffeine dependency. But the truth? Most recruits never see combat. You're more likely to end up learning stuff, getting in shape, and figuring your life out than you are running into anything risky.

It's more "life reboot" than battlefield. You build structure, get confidence, and yeah people actually treat you with more respect. You stop feeling like a background NPC energy and start showing up like a main character.


And the kicker? After your time's up, you've got $40k+, free education, benefits, the works. Start a business, buy a house, whatever. It's like real-life NG+ with unlockable perks that don't expire.


Not saying it's for everyone, but if you're even a little tired of sitting on the bench while life keeps loading might be worth looking at. No hype, no pressure, just putting it out there like someone should've done for me.

If you're curious, there's a site I found that breaks down how #QuickShip and bonuses work. Look it up, do your own digging. Just maybe don't dismiss it like I almost did. goarmy.com

Looks like you have some great taste. That's worth a lot

Embracing the doomer pill has a season. Don't adopt it full time.

Let me help set you on a better path.

Ride a motorcycle as fast as you want, in another country. But I seriously don't recommend going over 80kmh. Faggots exists.

Hop off /pol/ until you can laugh at it. That shit will rot your brain.

Those are not your only options. Those are the options losers choose, and then get mad their life is shit for some reason. Don't take the goynip. Do not.

Do stuff because it's fun. Travel to Asian and have crazy sex, ride motorcycles, eat like a king, and lift.

Save lots of cash in your 20s. Invest in ETFs and GICs asap. It will make you feel so comfy in 10 years after you get a free 100k from gains. You really don't want to be stressed about cash when you hit 30.

If you like gayming, do some of that, but you really need additional hobbies you can continually get better at with time.

If you don't enjoy sex, life will not be as fun, but you gotta find your obsessions to chase. That's what makes life worth living.

It all seems so pointless now. What's even the point of being alive when everything that is beautiful and human is going to be created by machines soon?
Do I just hunker down and hope Skynet kills us all? Please give me something to do with my life.

>>the realization that the Chinese race is so superior to the White race despite the latter's obvious dominance in arts etc.
As a Chink-American I hate when people make these things a racial difference rather than a cultural difference. I was born in the US, grew up in an environment that encouraged my creativity and critical thinking rather than suppressed them, and have no interest in worshiping Grandpa.
I share a few of your complaints about the world and am upset about them too, but you're still making yourself miserable with the racismbrained notion that race ought to be such a big factor in your self-esteem and how you evaluate others. Even your assessment of the political parties is obsessed with race when for most people it's more about economic policy and differing definitions of fairness.

Also, if it's any comfort about the other things, every time period has its own problems. If it wasn't this set of bad things, it would be a different set.

If you want to hate life, spend time online. Watch the news, doomscroll and stay REALLY focused on what the internet force feeds you. The Internet is a tool designed to demoralize you, keep you angry, afraid, antisocial, and distrustful/resentful of your neighbor. It's the perfect tool to make people complicit through sadness.

If you want to enjoy life, go live it. Put your phone on power saving mode, restrict the apps to the bare minimum. Go for a walk, hold the door for someone, go dancing, see a show, check out a small restaurant, smell flowers, pet a dog, go lay in the grass, sing a song, go to a night market and buy some stupid little trinket. Make a girl laugh, learn to make some wicked pancakes, wear a really good sweater, go for a swim, play an instrument.

Technology is cancer to the human experience, go outside and live.

>If you want to enjoy life, go live it.
Circular. The wanting is already intact, what's broken is the bridge from wanting to doing. This restates the problem as if it were the solution.

>Put your phone on power saving mode, restrict the apps to the bare minimum.
Removing the distraction doesn't conjure a fulfilling life. You trade scrolling for silence. The phone was the symptom, not the load-bearing cause.

>Go for a walk
Gated behind activation energy you don't have. If you could reliably stand up and go, you wouldn't be reading a list telling you to.

>hold the door for someone
A two-second courtesy for a stranger you'll never see again. Many feminists will complain anyway.

>go dancing
Presumes a body you're comfortable in, a place to go, people to go with, and the disinhibition to actually do it. Four prerequisites, none supplied.

>see a show
Passive consumption. You sit in the dark watching other people be alive, then it ends and you're returned to exactly where you started.

>check out a small restaurant
Costs money and is built for company. Alone it's just eating in an unfamiliar room, everyone noticing and judging.

>smell flowers
The sensory-gratitude move only lands if the reward circuitry is online. When it isn't, you smell the flower and register nothing rewarding.

>pet a dog
Borrowed warmth that walks away when the dog does.

>go lay in the grass
ONLY good accessible suggestion here

> sing a song
Performing cheer doesn't manufacture it. You just get to hear your own flat voice in an empty room and how embarrassing you are at modulation.

> go to a night market and buy some stupid little trinket
Consumption as mood repair. It's landfill by Tuesday and you knew that at the stall.

>Make a girl laugh
Presumes access, fluency, and a girl. For a lot of people that single line is the entire problem. Girls don't like or want to spend any time interacting with us, even asking for the time gets an
>I already HAVE a boyfriend

>learn to make some wicked pancakes
Pancakes are good one at a time, then they suck and you have too much batter leftover.

>wear a really good sweater
Aesthetics standing in for interior state. You can be well-dressed and hollow. /fa/ and hundreds of other "nerds autistic about style" forums prove it

>go for a swim
Expensive or contaminated

>play an instrument
Expensive grind through months of unrewarding practice first, which takes the exact reserves you're short on.

The unifying flaw stands: every item is an cargo cult of performing a good life. Well people do these things but doing them doesn't make you well.

>>34692908
Well, consider that with global warming running amok it's very feasible that we're going to reach +3° by the end of the century or even 2050 so it's very probable that the bipartisan US system will stop existing (and possibly even the US itself). Then everything will probably self-correct.

FYI just for clarity this isn't OP. I'm the OP.

I wonder if HRT would make things better lol. Problem is one of my problems is being stuck with anti trans or LGBT parents. They'd fucking flip if I did anything to transition - even only socially.

Just go for the money and that will make you happy

I feel like when I get off from work I go back to work

Very first thing that happened in my parents' house after I got off from work today was that they were bitching to each other + a sibling about "oooh la la do your fucking SATs you fucking cunt" and calling it "helping" or "for your own good"

This drove me crazy and made me feel like I hadn't progressed since high school

I have coworkers who really love commuting and I can scarcely see their problem

life is meaningless (nihilism); so you make up your own meaning (existentialism).
if there's any meaning to life it is natalism (procreate).
you can make your own choice whether you go to heaven/hell, reincarnate, or just process down into oil and become a mile of fuel for a fat boomers adventure fan.

where you are retarded is you have a rabid case of /pol/ brain.
any time population peaks, quality of life for the individual tanks. you're worth nothing.
unironically mass disasters are when quality of life goes back up (black death, ww2, 30 years war) because even the shittiest serf is now knighted to peasantry.
politics is gonna get worse. it just is. the entire west gave up and we're still in the world war 2 timeline. there's good in the bad though. in the us, move to the northwest states like montana idaho wyoming alaska. hell even eastern oregon isnt that bad despite retarded state politics.
you gotta serenity prayer your life and let go of the shit you cant change. for me it was the 2020 elections rigging and then realizing both parties were compromised. if you're not going to be the leader to change things, then wait for that day to come that a leader shows up, and fix your own life and problems in the meantime. buy an ar-15, train, get fit, pray/meditate, write, walk, enjoy the simple things in life and retardmax.
people hate politics because fags that get into it act like the world is ending and they are exhausting to be around.

bro i wish guns were legal here why do we must so suffer if we want to end it

Instead of using the world's problems as a shield to justify your own failures you should realize that nothing matters for real. And with that go have a beer and do a bbq for yourself on your porch and smoke a cig or weed while doing it. Enjoy the sun. Nothing matters, god isn't real, there is nobody watching you, nobody cares. What does this mean?

>>34692908
Because things often get very bad before they get better. Go see the world, and realize how easy you have had it to some, and how much wonder there is out there. Living behind a screen and polluting your mind with current events isn't good for you lol

To elaborate: there are so few 3rd spaces in the US that (((church))) often serves as one.

If your parents are calling you useless for not driving your siblings to fuck around with their jeet friends or cleaning the toilet, and you have a well-paying job and are employed etc., does that give your parents the right to call you fat and a loser? (Literal words btw)
