I wonder if we’re actually getting worse or if it’s just easier for the scum to coordinate and to some degree also be more visible due to the internet.
It is starting to feel like things used to be better, like we’re spiraling out of control.
There were more and more mass shootings, the alt right/extremists are spreading like a wild fire all over the globe, shit like this keeps happening.
I mean what the fuck? Where are we heading? And why? :/
I disagree with this line of thinking. I see humans as generally good, but sometimes far too easily swayed and influenced, as well as very vulnerable to mental illness. It’s easy to have a pessimistic and nihilistic view, but it’s important to keep in mind that the vast, vast majority of people, if not all people, are victims of circumstance.
I feel like the pendulum swings on the cruelty (at least in areas of the world we pay attention to…), while the damage caused by human civilization just keeps growing and growing. And it’s definitely easier for the scum to coordinate through the internet, but also to recruit and infiltrate minds.
I’m just sitting here being nihilistic, “Après moi, le déluge” about everything, and listening to my “collapse” playlist. The relatives I used to love went full Qanon, so I only have my cat to worry about, now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My theory is that we were created by whatever most mythologies define as the devil, or altered / modified genetically by such a being into what we are today. The nice people who are altruistic are genetic throwbacks that the devil tried his hardest to breed out of the human race, but he wasn’t 100% successful.
Also, the true purpose of humanity is to destroy the earth via pollution and by killing and eating all the animals rather than to save the earth / take care of the animals. Things like cognitive dissonance were installed via software reprogramming (brainwashing) to take care of the remnant “moral feelings” that couldn’t quite be gotten rid of through DNA tweaking.
If you look at what the vast majority of what humankind are doing (rather than the small vocal minority of environmentalists) it honestly makes sense. Then again, I’ve come to see “God” as a mad scientist / absent minded professor who was all “Let’s move fast and break things, it’ll all probably work out post-beta” rather than an all powerful creator being. One of the many reasons I left the church.

No. The purpose of a system being what it does, the purpose of life is to consume low-entropy states and excrete high-entropy states (it’s thermodynamically necessary to do that if you want to decrease the entropy in a localised system which is all that life ever does), overall accelerating the generation of entropy in the universe and thereby hastening its demise.
Humanity’s role in all that is to colonise the stars to do it all even faster.
Why the fuck is humanity so completely deranged? :(
I have no fucking clue but it gets tiring…

It is, read through history books. Humans always been absoulte scum of the earth
