Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

I don't think any amount of goodness humanity has can justify the evil. The happiness of everyone does not justify the suffering of one single individual.
Morality is a phantasm imprisoning the minds of those subject to moral authorities. Notice how much of the evil you speak about is perpetuated by the same people claiming moral authority. They can sleep at night because they genuinely believe they are right. If they can't, they widdle away whatever conscience they have by the same drugs people here use to ctb.
Yes. It weighs heavily on me and I have nightmares about the things I've seen. I hate that this is a world made for psychopaths and murderers and I hate how cold and hard I've become.
Yeah, i hate what it's done to me as well. It just turns you bitter, cold, and hateful.
if we weren't taught these things from a very young age on, would we still have the same ones. Most of my core beliefs have pretty much stayed the same throughout the years. Some of them have expanded and advanced with me but the main ones are still the same. I have broken a few of them along the way, mostly in emergencies or when the fight of flight instinct kicks in, and it does bother me. Sometimes to the point where I loose sleep. What other people do, if they can live with it, more power to them. I don't try to project my beliefs on anybody else. If it makes you happy and you're not in my space. Have at it. I often wonder if people were kept away from each other from birth and taught everything except wrong or right what we as humans would come up with??....
"Lucid" depression is a symptom, not the illness itself. It points to something being wrong, such as a job that oppresses a person's individuality, or a social role that nullifies the person themselves for the sake of something else.
90 percent of my depression stems from world events (the ones the effect me too). Everything sucks .
I think biology has done a pretty good job in terms of optimism bias, survival instinct, and desire to reproduce to keep the whole thing going. Then you have systems like religion that tell you suffering is a virtue and you will be rewarded for it. It really is an ingenious way to keep this whole thing going. I guess when you can see past all that, you come to conclusions like ours.
Here's another, unrelated quote from Blake I like.
Good question. The vast majority of my life have not been this way. Now it's extreme and I know I will die this way eventually. No the biology of it doesn't seem to make sense.
