I understand where you are coming from. This totally fucking blows and I’m terrified for my children. The only constant in human life is that there is suffering. There is always suffering in life. Right now, there is nothing you can do about this situation. Understand that there is always and has always been suffering in life. That’s not new. Speculation on the future only causes more suffering. The present moment is all you have. The want for what you deem as a better political situation (and you are probably right) is causing you suffering. Choose to not suffer.
Breathe deeply for 5 minutes straight and relish in what is good in your life. Let the loved ones around know how important they are to you. Do something that you truly enjoy. Take care of yourself. No one else is going to do that for you. You are not the first human being to feel what you are feeling and you will not be the last. Whether or not you are “ok” is up to you.
Luke Skywalker didn’t blow up the Death Star with that attitude! You seem like you are a good person. Sometimes, the only peace we can find is in ourselves. Keep your head up, friend.
Luke Skywalker? Might as well tell everyone that Clifford the big red dog overcame adversity, or curious George faced challenges. Don’t be patronizing.
You are going to die someday. None of this fucking shit matters. There has been shitty leaders and political hardships since we invented farming. You are not special. You are a speck of meat on a speck of dust in swirling mess of who knows what the fuck. You do not matter to me or most of the other 8 billion people on this planet. The moon, the sun, and the stars will still be in the sky tomorrow, whether you are here or not. Your opinions do not matter to any other human being on this planet. You are inconsequential and in a relatively short amount of years there will be no evidence to your measly existence at all. You want to be a pissy pants about politics online? Go ahead and do that if it makes you happy. But, it doesn’t. It makes you afraid and angry and you’re here sitting in your anger stew. If I want to tell someone online something positive through a character is space fantasy, I’m going to do it. To live is to suffer and the only thing that matters in life is making others feel good. That’s it. Nothing else truly fucking matters. Nothing. Quit acting like a baby, get some exercise, eat the right shit, and be useful. Now get out there and make some fucking changes in the world.
Don’t take this as me being rude. Take this as me freeing you from your mental tethers of exceptionalism.
Lol, you speak as if you’re the only asshole who figured out that life has no inherent value. I’m many years past that realization. Basically, I figured all that crap out as a child. Tons of people do. You don’t have any manner of superior logic. You have the same value as a random single celled organism.
That means we are all free. If nothing matters, then I decide what matters and no one will convince me differently. Thus, I have lived a life being part of large groups working to improve the meaningless lives of as many people as possible. We often work against violent minded dipshits who talk a lot like you do actually. People who never moved beyond the simple teenage mindset you typed out. You make accusations of perpetual online bitching. I think you’re just telling on yourself. You need to get out more champ. I’m actually out there doing real work to improve lives. I highly doubt you are. Grow up

The only way out is within.
I’m leaving this comment separate:
I appreciate your kindness.
Please continue talking to me if you need it. Maybe I need it too.
I love life. I love my people. I love the strangers I meet. I love nature. I love my pets. I live to help others.
There is no longer hope.

Give me a cute tiny phallic robot I can somehow understand, and a war fighting space ship, my attitude might change.
Until then, home brew defensive microwave EMP to fend off the openAI™ Slaughterbots®.
And lots of screaming to the clouds.

Ok, I won’t be patronizing. I’ll be fucking real.

You’re so aware of this that you decide that being a turd online is the best course of action for your situation?
Just talking to you in the same manner you talk to others. You don’t seem to like it. You should maybe reflect on that.
