it's a convenient answer

and typically they are nothing but a negative impact on everyone around them, either emotionally or with their bad decisions

this is just sour grapes logic

even if they are human trash, I don't know and you don't know, quite simply

how to address the issue of their anomie?

weakness, simply put

okay to clarify

"nothing special is happening, these are just weaklings who deserve to die anyway"

is this the gist of it?

the person who posted that is likely smarter than average

i dont think it would be optimal to just off them, because they can be put to work and ordered to do menial yet constructive things

but most people really are nothing but shit

pointless, irrational, dead inside.

is this normal @sampletext ?

I accept most people are followers, rather than leaders, that there is a hierarchy in all domains in man

governed by merit

but is it normal for most people to be pointless and dead inside?

no, definitely not

so that's a start

if it's not normal, was it normal in the past?

it is the model of civilization that leaves people feeling hopeless and succumbing to their chains

as in, were they in a normal state?

when was the last time people felt this way

in any civilization

surely we should have some record of it

in any financially and politically oppressive government it is this way

even if its in the form of myth

that's a hypothesis, maybe I accept it but

what's the basis?

my point of view is, alienation is exceptional

even in the throes of decay, alienation was never a feature of the human experience

do you accept that?

people working 9-5 jobs know deep down what they do is stupid, but they go through a series of mental gymnastics to rationalize it internally so that they dont have to face reality

and they have plenty of distractions to help them with this

sex and the city, green day, the walking dead, etc.

maybe that's half true, is the life of a family man, a salary man really so unhealthy and pointless?

and yes i do

yes it is

as the saying goes: jobs are jail

I think that's pretty silly, on its face

jobs can be jail and that can still be wrong
