I think that’s the shift in my mind when I woke up this morning. That with everything, I honest to God believed that people were done with everything and that we wanted to stand up for things like women’s rights and lgbtq rights. What instead we saw was a wave of anger, hatred, and selfishness that I have never seen in my life.
And I’m just kind of over it. I’ve fought the majority of my life to protect programs that help the needy, the disenfranchised, programs like unemployment, welfare, and dei programs. And what I saw yesterday is that those ideas are the minority in this country. Most people in this country want something short term for them and don’t have a care in the world about anyone else. They don’t care who is hurting as long as they get to go to Walmart and save a few cents on gas. And I’m over it.
That’s who we have built up in this country. Selfish entitled children. And they’re the majority.
The funny thing is that for me, Trump will probably be great for me personally. I make decent money, I’m white, and straight, and his policies are very favorable to me. That is, if I threw out all of my concerns about who gets stepped on along the way.
When you look at what humanity has done to the planet, especially in the last century, an extremely selfish humanity — deserving of the suffering they cause themselves in their confusion — was always self-evident.
We’re quite literally killing the planet to the extent that it will likely become unviable for human civilization within a century or so, most living species will be exterminated, and billions of people will starve to death … and every day most of us choose not stop the destruction because it individually grants us a constant stream of dopamine hits from consumption and consumerism; the consequences are out of sight, and out of mind.
We’re extremely ignorant, arrogant, dopamine-drug-addicted, talking chimps on a one way trip to oblivion. If it makes you feel any better, we never really stood a chance.
I think that’s why we’re leaning against having kids. Because at every turn I tried to make this world something better for the next generation, and I just don’t see it anymore. So why not just ride it out. Maybe adoption, but I just don’t see how we’re moving at all in a positive direction.

Yup. I already had a vasectomy years ago, in my late 20’s. I wish I did it at 18.
At no point was I on-board with accelerating the collapse or forcing my own flesh and blood to experience it.
