Everything feels so superficial, consumerist and gross. Like, it always was, but we used to at least have a counterculture to it. The only thing close to a counterculture is anti-woke shit which I think is going to bite us in the end.

I feel like I'm getting more misanthropic lately and I don't like it. But I feel like most people are just getting kind of shitty and sucked into "the game", more so than usual. Opposition to this is brushed away as bitter or "angry at the world".

But like, sometimes angry bitter people have a point? I think the total rejection of anger is dangerous, similar to not allowing people to be sad.

Everyone wears this mask of charisma, but it's suffocating and pretentious.

It's the algorithms. They only promote the monoculture and everything else stays off your feed. Either people get sucked into the game or you never hear from them again because the algorithm has silenced them.
