Discussion Everyone is batshit insane

[cowbain]

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only who recognizes (obviously that's not true but since I'm not in close promixity with people who can see this too it feels that way) how psychopathic life/society is. Wtf is up with humans. If it's not psychopathic traits, it's some other personality disorder.. sociopathy, narcissism. Like I just can't cope in a world like this. I'm tired of the games, manipulation, mistreatment. I don't enjoy this shit. How are people enjoying this??? I genuinely can't find pleasure or get off on treating people like shit and screwing people over to get ahead. I guess I really am not human enough. And when you bring it up to people they just get quiet or try to come up with excuses that justifies the way things are "it's human nature" "it's biological" like, WHAT?!!??

Yeah, I feel this too. People are super aggressive as well, with no remorse. Like, how can people get into brutal arguments under a 10-second video of a sleepy kitten!? Weird example, but it's sad to see. I can admit I have anger issues and can see when I do things that are manipulative, but I try really fucking hard to recognize that and own up to it.

Society is fucking sick. And we're the product of that a lot of the time.

It took me awhile to get over this one . I eventually found a way to tune it out . One thing and this is not the main thing that helped but I knew if I stuck around long enough I would get to see a lot of people responsible for the hellscape die , and their families absolutely destroyed and ruined by that.

it's worthwhile to stick around just for misanthropy alone. And I don't mean casually hating average people , just more stuff like having some good laughter when a war criminal died , like a particular one did on nov 30 2018

Right there with ya, man. It's also the fake, contrived charade everyone puts on. They use this to mask being condescending and judgemental and then they could act like they aren't doing anything. I'd rather them be open and straight forward about their smug tendencies so they can't hide behind a mask that shields them from being held accountable. As long as they could act like they aren't doing anything, it can't be addressed.

They always need to be better than you, get one over on you, and look down on you. Obviously not everyone does this, but it seems to be the norm. Since we don't fit in with this and the things you mentioned, then being here will drive us mad.

My favorite refute is when people say "natural selection."

Lmao like that justifies genocide or something.

They always need to be better than you, get one over on you, and look down on you. O

It seems like at least 50% of all humans are now narcissists to varying degrees, aggressive and cruel and seeking to be popular.

Here is what you are describing:

If we work the assumption that humans have flaws then it's a easier pill to swallow. Too often we let media or religion brainwash us to think what we should be rather than what we are.

 

[WhatDoesTheFoxSay?]

Likewise, I never understood why many are willing to participate in what appears to be a never-ending rat race and paper chase. In a sense, the Human Realm is not all that different from the Animal Kingdom. We are all governed by the Law of the (Concrete) Jungle.
