on A sudden epiphany. · c/lemmyshitpost · 2 pts · 179d

makes me feel better in a way, knowing i at least had a purpose. even if that purpose was to make someone else's purpose seem more meaningful.

Tell me when and tell me how.

And I'll just add, you people, who are minimizing how bad things have become are only making things worse by nurturing a culture of complacency.

theres a difference now though. the rich have amassed more wealth and power than ever before and technology has multiplied that power many times over. In countries like the US, the fascistic and oppressive systems that have been put in place have become nearly unbreakable by any realistic means. A civil war is not realistic without outside support from other countries. And that's not realistic. Smaller countries can have revolts because they don't have the systems the US has in place. They aren't militarized and policed to even a fraction of the amount. The US public only worsens the issue because it has been purposefully de-educated over many decades. We are staring a steel reinforced dystopia in the face and doing nothing because there is nothing we can do.

The world has not been this way before.

considering the state of the world, politics really should be inescapable. everywhere. not just lemmy. not just reddit. not just social media. everywhere.

people trying not to pay attention are allowing evil to go on uncontested. you are showing a lack of empathy and self absorption that is ruining the entire world.
