I don't think any of us will ever feel normal again. It's so exhausting. I just want to go back to, like, 2009 so fucking badly.

The firehose of lies we're all being blasted with 24/7 is taking its toll on people. When Boeing murders a whistleblower right in front of everyone and we all know it's a murder, but we also know nothing will happen to those responsible for the murder, it shakes all the foundational bullshit we were all taught about living in a fair and just society. Once you start thinking critically, you see that almost everything we were taught about the world our entire lives is a lie.

We are cogs in a machine designed for the sole purpose of enriching the already-wealthy. The misery in the world- the poverty, the endless wars, etc., is the result of the system working as intended.
