Older anons: how has your mentality and views on politics/society changed from when you were younger?I'm turning 35, and reached a point where life is moving so quickly, and youth has passed, and I really have little tolerance for people wasting my time, minor interpersonal issues, even random political events just mean less and less. Not sure if this is creeping nihilism (I keep thinking "man in 100 years this will mean nothing" and stuff along that line of thought) or whether it's just getting older and more grouchy. Politically I'm really only drawn to people/parties/movements who hate what I hate, more than people promising a better future.
>>534695959I didn't care then and I care even less now. I thought then that people that talked aboutp politics were retarded and wasting their time being scared. That's only proven itself to me. How is anyone able to stand in front of the crowd that is the internet and declare only their way correct when the opposite is visibly true? Because they lie and only lie. This is the basis of politics. To lie better than the other.
>>534695959Libertarian at 20. Fascist at 50. See attached.
people told me i could just put off having a family and it would happen naturally once im successful but now im making $150k at 40+ and balding and the only way i can have that life is if i go to mexico or something. I really feel like i was betrayed by my entire so-called "community"
>>534695959>I keep thinking "man in 100 years this will mean nothing"Do you have kids anon? If not, hop on that ASAP.You'll only start hating more, but at least you'll find yourself driven to positive solutions because you'll have an investment in the future.t. 45yo dad
After Obama ballooned the debt by 11 trillion dollars, I thought Trump was the guy to turn it around. Never really liked him, but I liked how the establishment hated him. Then Trump proceeded to outspend Obama. When the national debt went past the tipping point of $22 trillion, I realized it's just theater and we are fucked. My goal now is to get out of the city and own some land in bumfuck nowhere to ride out the coming collapse. I look forward to living in the Balkan region of Texarkahoma.
>>534695959Along the way the one big realization for me wasHitler was right
>>534695959im early 40s and just dont care anymore. if i find out tomorrow i have a terminal illness it wont matter much and might actually make things interesting for a little while. fuck it.
>>534695959>older anons>turning 35Isn't the average age like 30 here? There's barely anyone under 25 on /pol/. Zoomers are too cucked for that.
>>534695959Society was people I went to the pub with when I was younger.
>>534699878
>>534699868>Isn't the average age like 30 here?More like 40+, from my extensive lurking experience.
>>534695959I really just wanted people to get along, to be conscientious of each other and the happiness that we could all share. Failing that I didn't want to be at the throat of anyone. To have a house and a wife who loved me and kids. Thought maybe for while that maybe I'm not worth love. Still think that way sometimes if I'm honest. Had some real hard times. Existence weighs on me. You start realizing that things aren't getting better by design. That we're coming to the end of the road and the road was designed to extract as much wealth out of a nation before a cosmopolitan elite absconds with all of their ill gotten wealth and then laughs while we eat each other. Gradually, I grew to hate them. I don't want to hate them. But their actions show that they care little for my hate, only for my subservience. As long as I lick their asshole and call it candy they will allow me to subsist.We won't even be allowed to remember the names and the faces of those who escape to other countries when it all literally goes to hell around here. Don't you ever forget them anon.

>>534700809I was being very conservative with the estimate. 40 is definitely more like it lol
>>534695959Yes
>>534696912shame on you, you're old enough to know the correct definition of fascism, you know, the one from before Noam Chomsky & co were instructed to tell everyone that it cant have anything to do with international corporations running your governments
>>534697461>then Trump proceeded to outspend Obama.fuckin retard blaming globohomo's release of ronas to steal the election with masks on and double plus'ing the money supply cuz muh ronas....all on trump....plebbit tier retardation
>>534695959Grew up without father, was a stronk national socialist with 13, went to existentialism, nietzsche, homo superior until 18, then slowly shifted to the moderate liberal left in university because foid business. After university I became more and more financially independent and found myself drift to the right more and more the freeer I became. When I was rich enough to not care about anyone's unqualified opinion anymore, I had left the political spectrum entirely, didn't give a shit about the empty promises of politicians, just did what I wanted, followed my own ideals. Then I got kids and started hating the leftists with a passion, because they sexually abuse and sterilize other people's kids and they think it's funny. Nowadays I just want to see the leftists exterminated in camps. For a safer and more civilized world. Beyond that, I don't care about politicians anymore. They're all lying frauds and they don't even try to pretend anymore. Democracy is fake. Always been. Politicians' "freedom" means nothing. Real freedom has to be earned in the same way men earned it since the dawn of time. Strength, courage, wisdom, power.
>>534701566>all on trump....plebbit tier retardationyou're just talking emotionally, like a woman, butthurt
>>534701566Yeah man. Remember no new wars? Remember when early on in the war Israel struck first and basically dragged us into it. Now the narrative is America started it. Wish I'd saved those first articles.
>>534699868>Zoomers are too cucked for that.Zoomers have better places. 2026 4chan is for the addicted bottom feeders who failed to move on when 4chan became culturally irrelevant.
>>534701850>Zoomers have better placesDo they really, though?
>>534702331Yes. Accept it. 4chan is no longer relevant.
>>534702626If its no longer relevant why are you here? >>To laugh at you.Sure thing. I mean, I like to waste time too, its why I'm here, but there wouldn't be so many slide threads if we weren't still on target.If they're so great where are they? May I see them, Skinner?
>>534701701>calling out plebbit tier garbage & analysis is plebbit tierplebbitors have 2 responses to getting btfo:1 - no u2 - adhom u
>>534701778>yeah man, remember this other shit that doesnt have anything to do with what you typed or were responding toyou're a dumb faggot and dont understand that the mullahs are globohomo agentsyou should stop trying to think about these things, you're burning out those last couple brain cells you have left
>>534702745My name is not Skinner. Do you hold those weird monologues irl too?
>>534702745tiktok instagramm maybe discordthis place is rather soft to what im seeing on nearly every platform which young people use toomaybe not tikotk or discord since im not on those platforms but def instagrammpeople say x is also rather crazy
>replying to 1pbtid memeflagWhy do you guys refuse to learn
>>534702626Everything still trickles down from 4chan. That hasn't changed. Even people like Tucker Carlson clearly get material and ideas from here. Redditers and Youtubers repeat info from threads, people on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok steal memes from here. Pretty much every notable mem has origins here. I myself have profited considerably after filtering through and selecting beneficial information. The only people saying this site is irrelevant is someone who wants people to stop coming here.
>>534695959My fucking dad got shot when I was in middle school by some young nigger. He's lucky to be alive because the little nigger initially wanted to shoot him square in the chest but my dad ran off. My sister got stabbed years ago quite a bit, she got lucky there too. Then her husband at the time burned our apartment to a fucking crisp and I almost died along with my sister and my mother. All of this shit happened by the time I turned 18. I'm 34 now. So how exactly am I supposed to view the world and have a positive mentality and viewpoint? I don't. I don't give many people the benefit of the doubt anymore. I think politics are a very polarizing distraction to every day life. Most people just want to be left the fuck alone and to go about their lives as they see fit and according to their own internal ideology and self fulfilling prophecy of life. Even if you speak to a college aged kid like I do quite often lately, they want to do what the fuck they want to do and that's that. When I was younger, I was more friendly and a lot more socially inviting. Now, I'm not. I went to a college bar last night that I grew up having parties at when I was a kid and I ran into a girl I saw there before who wanted to dance with me. She's fucking gorgeous. And when I say gorgeous, I mean that she was naturally more beautiful than any girl in that entire fucking bar that night and I genuinely mean that. But she's at least 10 years younger than I am. Life is moving so much faster than I anticipated when I was in my late teens and early twenties. And most people my age are already established. I'm very much still that same 18 year old mentally most of the time. And to my own detriment, I live off of my own nostalgia. That isn't healthy and it isn't productive. I had a great life prior to my mom passing. Now, I feel like I'm in a purgatory.
>>534701850Nah it's more like /pol/ is the beach and X is the sparkly Ziowaters at this point. This is the year when millennials began to "take power" except there's nothing to take except from Zionists and they are leaving soon and probably leaving behind this new Hanta killer Anyone under 50 is not capable of running the West lmao. JD Vance and Rubio and AOC? At least the pressures are going away. Everyone is basically retired. 9/11 was Israel. JFK was Israel. The moon shit likely never happened and didn't just happen. "Ayys r real" and orgies and gardens and lots of coffs await
