I was "deradicalized" (if that's really the right word) for several years but relentless spam and attacks on places IRL and online I still cared about finally made me snap.
We're in a state of cultural cold war involving many factions and it's become impossible to ignore any longer.

Unironically going outside
It turns out the vast majority of people aren't insane freaks, it's just that businesses promote said freaks because their outrageous behavior drives engagement which in turn drives ad revenue/sales.
The internet gives every deranged asshole a platform to spew their nonsense. Cutting social media out of my life and just sticking to talking with my group of friends has improved my morale significantly. Even this shithole I only really visit out of habit these days, for the two weeks it was down I didn't really miss it.

Look at their behavior anon, that isn't fear, it's "look at me look at me look at me" mixed with "you are doing the wrong thing so I'm allowed to mistreat you". Sadism and narcissism.

The war happened and i just decided "I am legally undraftable (disabled) unless shit hits the fan really bad, so i really have nothing to care about" and i havent given a shit ever since.
It really is a nervesaver while everyone else argues about piggies and ziggies all the time.
Seeing other people in my family who arent draftable either discuss shit that literally has no relevance to us personally and literally whos unrelated to us dying is fucking annoying though. I wish we could just discuss something else most of the time.

These same petty tyrants also spent the previous four years wailing how they were “The #Resistance” and fighting for “the common folx.” The people who made the “boys will be boys” commercial are the same ones who begged us to “come together.”

you are in control of your life. you are capable of making decisions on your own. the only thing stopping you is yourself. stop being a pussy and blaming your problems on something else. you are a human with free will like anyone else. absolutely nothing is stopping you from excercising it. seriously stop making excuses. go do something to make your life better rather than sitting on your ass saying you can't because of past trauma or whatever other bullshit. i was so depressed in high school that i dropped out 3 times, but that has nothing to do with the decisions i make today. i do hard things because i know that i have to, and if i don't then my life will be worse. you need to do those hard things. i'll tell you one more time - go do something new today and break this pattern. nothing is stopping you. Lazy faggots

So? Keyword here "each other". Gang squabbles with hood niggas shooting their opps doesn't affect me. This is different to yuropestan where Muslims target non-muslims indiscriminately.

At least hispanics come from a Christian culture, they aren't going on mass stabbing sprees or running over people with trucks like the muslims now are they?

There is a literal group of niggers outside my house trying to open car doors and house doors to see if they're unlocked and they are armed. I see them all the fucking time. I used to take night walks, now I'm afraid to go out at night because I live in a pussy liberal city that doesn't like guns (Chicago). My neighborhood has gotten fucked with so much that private security was hired by the richest people here before they left and now there isn't enough money being put up to renew their contract. Someone was literally robbed and carjacked, at gunpoint, 25 feet from my door on the street after they got home from vacation IN BETWEEN SECURITY SWEEPS BY THE PRIVATE HIRES.

People always blame it, and I get why, but it begs the question: why the fuck are so many people completely hooked on this shit? They are CHOOSING to engage with it in the first place. My mother and my sister both used to have several different hobbies each, now all they do is stare at their phones 14 hours a day and then bitch and moan about whatever dumb political bullshit they saw on it. They are much less happy than they used to be and I just don't get the incentive to even glance at this crap at all, I get nothing from it but annoyance.

I just don't feel like I belong to society and haven't felt like I do for a long time, feel myself compeltely detached from whatever people are usually worried about.

I went outside and realized I’m the last white man in my neighborhood. It doesn’t feel empowering like the commercials insist diversity should feel. I’m isolated. Alone.
