Technically, you don’t “need” much to live (one can live unhappily) and if you kill yourself, you don’t need anything anymore! Whenever I hear something like “I’m better off alone, everyone’s annoying” or “I hate people, they’re overrated”, all I hear is “I’ve been hurt and I never learned how to cope with it and move past it” or “I’m extremely afraid of opening up” or “I’m poorly socialized, frustrated and probably autistic” or “I have unrealistic expectations of people because of emotional needs I cannot meet and nobody else can either” (or even “it’s hip to be misanthropic, it’s a sign of wisdom and not just immaturity”).

An honest person would just say something like “I’ve been too hurt to get close to people, at least for now” or even “idk why I can’t just be normal and enjoy/tolerate other people (it’s probably related to my attachment issues and childhood trauma) but evidently this is more of a me issue and not the human condition”. Don’t ask me how I know 🫣.

I’m sensing some resistance here, lol.

I feel like it’s always not POC who feel weird about it. Lemmy is a Western site, Westerners are known for being not just racist but violently racist (white supremacy is the “ideology” that allows for colonization and Transatlantic slave trade after all, and places like America have ICE for brown people and the police for black people, many of these folks will just end up being incarcerated and enslaved like back in the day), plus American current admin is openly and loudly racist amongst other things so why should it be surprising that some racist takes/vibes would be felt in a Western (mostly American?) site? You might not notice, ofc, the way a fish doesn’t notice water, but you should expect it at least in theory.

You’re telling on yourselves: you’re either a POS white supremacist in denial, or you’re weak minded and scared of potential accountability to the point you’d rather deny the experience of those who have suffered because of an ethnocultural trait of your peoples. Of course, it’s better to be the latter than the former. 👍

I drank for most of my life but once I met my now wife I didn’t see the point of it, since it was entirely related to my horniness and trying to get in a skirt chasing “wolf mode”. I also converted to Islam so that definitely pushed me more in that direction, lol, and I haven’t drank in almost a decade. I’m not shy and/or self-conscious so it doesn’t benefit me in that way (a couple of drinks is more than enough for these kind of folks, or at least should be) and I’m too reckless and easily triggered into aggression (way more so the past but still) so nah, not for me… my substance has always been cannabis anyway. 🫣😅

Are you making a meta joke that I’m just too dumb to understand? Where exactly is the misogyny here? Half of the world is women, some of them will do things that are questionable or just plain silly/funny, and jokes will be made. 🤔

Nooo, just weird videos on YT, lol. Let me show you a classic, “Welcome to the real world” (misspelled in the video), an introduction to the concave earth “”“theory”“”: https://youtu.be/WLnSRWaPu3I

“Woo” unintentional ASMR, for me. Love hand reading and concave earth nonsense, it sends me straight into Morpheus’ arms.
