What makes you think you matter? You don’t. Sure you have a small group of people that like you, but I don’t like you because I don’t know you. The person walking down the street doesn’t care about you. You talk tough and that’s it. You’re irrelevant to the grand scheme. When the earth begins to burn you’re going to burn along with the vast majority of the rest of the world. No one cares. You want to hate, fine. Do it. Where does that get you at the end of the day? No where. And you will continue being nothing to so many people. Stamp your feet, scream, cry. Do whatever you have to do. It will change nothing. You can change nothing. Regardless of how hard you try to impact people, you never will. And why is that? Because you’re irrelevant. You’re dissatisfied with everything and everyone around you because you can never be satisfied and that makes you miserable. So what do you do? You share your misery. You do the same exact thing that’s been done to you so many times, but that’s ok right? Because it’s not your fault right? Everyone screams for change, but all we do is the same things over and over again. So if that’s the case, why does it matter? Why do you matter? Whit makes you and your thoughts more important than the next person? You’re not good enough because no one is good enough and no one ever will be.

What I find the funniest is blaming everything around you as being wrong, you’re surrounded by bad people and enemies, yet you never question whether you’re the problem. Don’t worry about it though because it’s a new minute so I’m sure you have something new to hate

    The problem with this is, once you’re doing everything you possibly can on your individual level, you quickly see that so many others won’t bother to lift a finger, or even work actively to undo all the progress. This is extremely demotivating.

    I don’t drive, I don’t fly, I don’t buy fast fashion (or barely any clothes at all), I live in a small apartment, I changed all lighting to LED-s years ago, I don’t eat meat, I’m starting to smarten up my home with automation to squeeze out a little bit more energy savings.

    And it doesn’t help jack shit since it is impossible to get even 50% of people in the developed nations to live like that and even if we could, one multinational megacorporation still manages to do more damage than an average European country.

    Sure, we could start petitions—these will be simply ignored. We could come to streets in protest—just to be beaten up by class traitors and new legislation coming in criminalizing protests and throwing anyone who dares into jail for 10+ years. Nothing will change for the world.

    From this point on, the only way anyone could change anything would be to actually blow shit up—not once, but all the time, everywhere, until no polluting industry is left. That’s clearly not possible to do in the era of mass surveillance.
