The only jobs that have ever paid me well enough to live were outside the US. Its pure indentured servitude here. I'm back in the US and its a bad situation again. No prospects, no family, nothing. There's truly nothing for me here.

I disagree where you say you blame no one but yourself. If you went to college at 18, like they told us to do, you had no way of knowing better. They lied to us. They lied to our parents. Teachers and parents are supposed to look out for their kids, and both groups basically said "FU" to us. Meanwhile companies imported millions of illegals so they wouldn't have to pay Americans. Now those illegals have families and have moved up in jobs. But we, with our fucking college degrees, have nothing.

You're not mad enough, man. Any generation before us, even the selfish boomers, would have fought over this. This whole retarded country is pacified by movies and drugs. And scapegoats. No one ever assigns blame correctly. This meme is a distraction. We all quibble over rights and can't do anything about how F'd up everything is. Its just more scapegoating.

But now I understand. I wouldn't have understood if my life wasn't like this... The problem is democracy. Democracies are inherently corrupt and they give false hope. People keep thinking, "this time our guy will change things if we win" - but its just another lie. Free markets can't coexist with a democracy. Private property can't coexist with democracy. Human rights can't coexist with democracy. Democracy, because of all the corruption and the government spending crowding out free markets, only really gives you a choice between slavery or destitution. And yes, I'm conflating republic with democracy, but for the sake of this point, it doesn't matter.

Where's my fucking "American dream"? My ancestors came here in the Mayflower. My grandpa worked on the Manhattan project, and then developed plastics after the war. But not a single person of my generation, out of all my cousins, has kids or a house. They all have three jobs, and literally nothing else. Nothing. But they're very nice, social people, and they are worried about climate change, and all the rest of that retarded shit. Shit. Stop being so fucking nice... Stop being so fucking distracted.

That wasn't aimed at you. Just saying. Everyone.

It is not that I am not mad enough. It is not that I don't care. It is more along the lines of at a certain point in time you have to look at what getting mad and fighting the powers that be gets you. During these turbulent times of misinformation and uncertainty. To truly know who your real enemies are and what is the actual sources of grief is beyond challenging. It is something that if you let it the hatred will consume you, because it did consume me for many years.

I know how you feel. I empathize with your viewpoint. I just decided after all that hatred and all of the constant stress that went along with it. I looked at this clown world and decided to leave the circus. Now I am firmly out living in the wilderness on a small homestead saying fuck the outside world. I hope things get better, but if they get worse I am more than prepared and capable of being self-sufficient in case of whatever shit happens. I have a roof over my head, plentiful wild game in my backyard, the best quality mountain spring water, and my neighborhood is full of kind people who are armed to the teeth that also keep to themselves. It is peaceful and even though I personally am poor as fuck right now with literally only 3 dollars left in my wallet. I am grateful for what I have and I know that if I work hard on my projects and keep creating quality content on Nostr. Eventually I will be in a better financial place, or if everything goes to shit I will still thrive out here in the wilderness with the woman I love.

I hope people get their shit together. I hope that the angry ones who yearn for righteousness and justice are willing to keep up the good fight. Will become the heroes to improve the quality of our country hopefully peacefully. I will support them in spirit, but I have already left this crazy world behind me. I don't plan on coming back if and/or until things have changed for the best. My sanity and personal growth demand this sacrifice, because I can not stand the clown world insanity any more than I already have to deal with in person, or online.
