Just read yet another story on "blah blah my daughter saw some self harm on Instagram and now she's dead" and how social media companies need to censor all self harm/suicide content.

Regardless of your opinion on that, I notice there's never any action plan to ensure people stop being/don't become suicidal in the first place. Y'know, beyond just telling people to 'reach out' despite the fact any depressed person quickly realises that was the worst idea they ever had and they've just essentially made the bullseye on their back visible from space.

I also realise that a lot of your life is your personal responsibility and you should take that responsibility because it is empowering to do so and beneficial to the whole. But at the same time, humans evolved to be social creatures so a lot of our wellbeing depends on how accepted we are. And we weren't built to be in survival mode permanently.

In fact, a lot of us take responsibility that isn't ours in order to shield these adult children from the shit that they do. It's thankless and we need to stop. If they're so much stronger than we are, let them handle their shit.

Would it kill these people to just NOT be cunts. To take that personal responsibility themselves FOR THE WHOLE. I'm not asking for an invite to every party or to be ass-patted everywhere I go, I'm just asking for people to think outside of themselves and their paper-thin motivations so that my life ever so slightly less resembles hell.

I feel absolute contempt for these people. How wonderful it must be to think or at least collectively pretend that nothing is wrong until big bad Instagram puts a picture of cutting on the screen. Then that person who was perfectly happy and content suddenly just SUICIDES out of nowhere as if it were some B movie.

And so many operate and thrive on this childish, simplistic thinking. I don't think anybody happy really understands themselves, they just stomp all over the place with their entitlement and OpInIoNs that are based on little else than small town/mob mentality and the way in which their favourite reality stars are currently humiliating themselves online. It doesn't matter if they're basement dwellers eating tendies or retirees who have had professional careers and families, they all follow this myopic line of thinking like a train that can only ever stay on its tracks.

I wish there was a way of finding out how many of these pro-lifers bully people in their day to day lives or did at school. How many of them call people 'weird' and 'negative'.

I was snooping around Facebook the other day. There was one boy in school who I eventually developed a crush on, I've no real idea why. He was absolutely fucked in the head, he'd sexually harass me for weeks and then triangulate me with another victim (who also liked him, she told me). He'd sexually harass one and blank the other one on and off. Fairly advanced psychological warfare for an 11-15 year old and probably something that fucked up my reward system and made me go for damaging adult relationships.

Thanks, ****. Oh btw you were kinda weird looking and smelled of B.O. too but you were part of the acceptable gang and so no one pointed it out.

That's another weird thing. Ever notice that some of the twats in the popular gang are actually waaaaay uglier than you are? Just goes to show these 'rules' are fucking arbitrary, the nastier of the popular girls/women I've known have been the fugliest bitches I've ever seen.

Ahem.

Anyhow, he isn't on social media but his wife is. They have three daughters together, two of which are high school age (11 and 14). I just couldn't help but think.. I hope no one is harassing these girls the way I was harassed (though most likely these girls are bullies themselves now). But at the same time, I couldn't help but think... he'll have that mentality most parents have. "Don't come after my kids but it's okay to bully others because they're 'weird'".

Strangely, there are plenty of photos of the wife and the kids but zero of him. And no, I have no ill will or whatever towards her and her children, don't worry. Revenge is of no interest to me.

This shit is a huge problem yet these half-arsed 'anti-bullying' campaigns only show up when some parent needs social media points. I've seen them uploading photos and videos of their kid crying and it's beneath contempt. "hay i hav an idea gonna put this online so they get bullied even more an then i can get more angrier lol might put a gofundme up xxxx"

I'm so tired. I've actually grown up into one of those happy-go-lucky fuckers with a smile and a joke for everyone. I get all the surface-level 'admiration' in the world but whenever a glimmer of who I am comes out, I get ghosted and that's that. Maybe they feel mislead but what else am I meant to do.

I'm sorry, I just.. inside, I'm screaming. I don't know how to exist here, I clearly don't understand the rules of this arbitrary bullshit game.

This situation is one of many that exposes the sickness of our society and culture.

It takes someone with real life experience, or a very broad intellectual education at the very least, to acknowledge the hypocrisy of normalising cruelty and then 5 minutes later jumping on the bandwagon of virtue-signalling when the question of someone wanting to CTB arises. They want cause without effect. Action without consequence.

Part of the problem is that modern society's laws, systems and structures are so insanely complicated that people are raised to be mere a cog in a wheel with little or no critical thinking on bigger-picture issues. Education only wants to churn out a factory of slavish taxpayers. The sort of profound thinking that would be open to new ways of viewing life and death is far beyond the reach of their minds, and quite by design.

People won't admit it but they blindly follow authority while purporting to rebel against it. The authority at the moment seems to be mass consumerism and Silicon Valley working in tandem.

All the racists and homophobes from school are now advocates of inclusivity. Wild, isn't it. They're all posting the black square and the rainbow logo. All the people who called you fat are now for body positivity. Why?

Social credit is why.

It's all the same. No one thinks. They just need that sweet sweet credit. And when they need to punish you, their immediate instinct is to ostracise you because to them, that's a fate worse than death. On some level, they know that ostracisation is death but they don't care as long as it doesn't happen to them.

People ultimately act in the way the culture allows with a human predilection toward savagery. We all have aggression but some of us consider the correct way of going about things. Others, however, pile onto 'acceptable' targets.

In school, it was the person who couldn't afford Nike. Now it's the person who questions the narrative.

However, we've reached the point where it's leading into a wider problem; the elites have caught onto this human propensity for vicious conformity and are using it against us in earnest this time by manipulating what we see and respond to and suggesting ways to soothe ourselves through punishing wrongspeak.

The companies that use the rainbow logo every June and use a black logo for BAME issues still work people and often children to near death. Do these normie idiots honestly think they care?

Likewise mental health drives. "Don't say this word", "you aren't allowed here because you're white/straight/cis", "yes you are anxious and depressed, here, let me censor everyone so that you can get through the day". If that was coming from a person in our lives, we'd recognise it for the abusive powergrab that it is. "I must scare you out of even speaking and control what you believe".

But Average Joe won't even consider this and if they do, it'll be quickly batted away. They've just mindlessly seized the new outlet for their self righteous anger and when it all goes to shit, they'll just gawp and parrot "omg how dis happen" just like the German people did in the 30's and 40's while endorsing millions of deaths.

Vicious people almost always operate within the realms of 'acceptability'. But we all suffer because of this cowardice.

The elites keep pushing 'inclusivity' initiatives that do nothing but breed mistrust and eggshell-walking among the little people. And when we stop fighting for each other because the other person is too LGBT or too whatever colour, etc, we'll be absolutely screwed. They'll descend on the people who defeated themselves.

It's a famous quote by Sartre: "L'enfer, c'est les autres."

Don't you want to add this? :wink:

"Hell is other people" has always been misunderstood. It has been thought that what I meant by that was that our relations with other people are always poisoned, that they are invariably hellish. But what I really mean is something totally different. I mean that if relations with someone else are twisted, vitiated, then that other person can only be hell. Why? Because... when we think about ourselves, when we try to know ourselves... we use the knowledge of us which other people already have. We judge ourselves with the means other people have and have given us for judging ourselves. Hell is other people because we are forever trapped within them, subject to their apprehension of us."

-- Sartre

Well, my idea of hell is certainly other people. People are capable of causing us lots of pain. Humans are the cause of all our suffering, if it was not for other people we would not exist in the first place. I keep my distance as much as I possibly can.
