For people born in 2000-2008.

I feel like there has really been a hidden apocalypse in the modern consumer era, exploitation era, the era that no longer cares about humanity or it’s mental health.

From food to entertainment to supposed freedom to so called advancement of the society, we’ve only seen a steady and constant decline in the psychological and mental state of the society as a whole.

I can’t help but notice how different were the things in 2007 or even 2015. The modernity and it’s bells and whistles has really been hazardous.

    Realizing things aren’t getting better, global warming is going to get significantly worse, and that we’re probably far too late to dismantle capitalism. All my hope lies on the baby boomers finally dying out, they’ve ruined so much of our lives and refuse to let their positions of power go.

      Capitalism and neo-colonism has really been there for some decades and has significantly damaged the societal structure controlled by selfish and inhuman being and portraying itself as a liberal and democratic tool. The horrors it has brought are now irreversible even if the social psychology and consciousness understands it because those people can never think of letting anyone reverse that.

      It reminds me of a Simpsons episode where they are taking riches and celebs to the other planet while poor and unpopular are stranded on the earth getting blasted and in nuclear waste in the atmosphere.

      When they have basically snatched every opportunity and power from you of redefining and rethinking of a more flexible and humane society, by giving u hope that they’ll do it themselves and will fix everything. And now there’s no way out when they’ve betrayed us and the humanity for their personal and short pleasure.
