Bruh this isnt a matter of people closing their eyes and humming loudly, this is a problem of mental health. The world is going really poorly right now, dystopian bullshit all around and people feel powerless to change it meaningfully. The constant barrage of terrible news can seriously fuck up peoples mental wellbeing. Take reality in moderation these days.
That in no way contradicts what I’m saying: People don’t want to be confronted with reality.
The problem with that, however, is that burying their heads in the sand instead of joining forces to change the situation doesn’t help anyone—it actually hurts anyone.
An excellent example of what happens when people don’t band together to put a stop to those who harm everyone out of ruthless self-interest is the U.S.
It is simply wrong to resign oneself to injustice. People can change things together—there are more than enough examples of this in history.
To say, “That’s just the way it is,” is the worst thing you can do, because that is exactly what the powerful of this world want—and they want it because they are so vastly outnumbered.
I say this myself above, and unfortunately, it’s because I’ve pretty much given up hope— because even on the most niche platforms, you’re still confronted with people’s hedonism.
I am explaining to you why people dont want to be confronted with reality. Genocide, neo nazis, war, literal pedophiles and/or billionaires in power, political drift towards ever more hate and destruction of social systems.
I know all about that, i really do not need to intently consume every single piece of dismal news. All that does is make me feel terrible because i cant change it like that, and it doesnt open my eyes to anything, my eyes are open already.
