I hate the state of things, but what drives me crazy is pushing it in people's faces and still watching them go back to school and work and talk about whatever typical bullshit they're thinking about.
That is pretty much how the mechanics of human consciousness works. We also know we are going to die some day, and that it is most likely not going to be very pleasant leading up to it. But we still manage to block out that knowledge of finality in our daily life.

But Momma, that's where the fun is
"We live in a dystopia"
Said the dude
With access to running water
Food
Medicines
Rights
Technology
Opportunities
Privileges
That 99% of the whole world population doesn't have and won't ever have access to, even in their wildest dream
This dude doesn't need to worry about being sold into slavery
Or leaving his country just to avoid persecution be it political or otherwise
Or working 24/7 non stop
Or being caged just to be a source of entertainment for others
Having his limbs chopped for food.
Being used as a tool to relieve sexual stress
Being extorted into war and crime just to save his family lives
Being forced to murder and rape perks just to not be murdered himself
Or being used as a human shield against his will or else
Having his organs harvested to pay debts
Murder his own family and children to avoid them the pain of being abused and tortured to death
All things that happens daily in our current world
And yet he says he lives in a dystopia nightmare
while sitting on his couch
At his parents or his own house, owning property
Stoned out of his mind
On his latest generation phone that he probably got to pay for on easy installments or was gifted to him
Having had breakfast and a good night sleep
While having access to the sum of the whole world knowledge at his fingertips
And working a couchy desk/customer service job which requires zero skill whatsoever
Yes we hear you and feel so sorry about your pain. Let us commiserate together about how bad YOU have it.
I'd like to think people like this are not real, but in case they are, I just wish them to experience the most slowest and agonizing of lives
