No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming “wokeism”* for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

*Woke is a useless term promulgated by fascists to dog whistle the things they really want to hate - feminism, socialism, LGBTQIA+, immigration, brown/black people, equality and diversity.

      Believe it or not, you can do more stuff than just vote. However, you can do nothing about problems that you’re unaware of, even if they’re problems that affect you directly.

        Like what exactly?

        I seriously don’t think people have any power to change anything at all. The game is completely rigged. I understand that people want to have hope that things can get better, but I don’t see any sign of that.

        I’m more like the guy who watches the titanic go down and enjoy the last year’s before it sinks.
