that people deeply feel, but cannot really express
people did not just get "sick of the way things are" in so many words
to spur something like Brexit
I mean, they did get sick of it
Sometimes, I wish to live as a ghost, and see things get a hundred times worse
but what that means is a lot more than what is realized
I'm curious how far things can be taken
you can already do that in a way
in a sense
by actually absorbing how bad things are now
it will feel a hundred times worse or a thousand times worse than your previous apathy
and simulate that experience thusly
it still stuns me how I didnt have to learn anything
nothing had to change, just my attitude
It's not so bad that this appreciation could be reached without such practices.
I don't think that always could be the case.
that's sort of the point
the tragedy of our damnation now is
we dont feel its a big deal
I dont feel it too much
I'm fine, things are okay
and I will feel this way when things are a million times worse too
unless I was allowed to keep my current perspective, unchanged
then MAYBE
How do you know whether it is things not being bad enough, or that bad necessarily proportionally numbs you to badness?
you compare to the past and you check with what you know is true/right etc.
so faith, history, introspection
how much worse could things be in terms of basic rejection
not its effects
just rejection
Not much worse.
yeah, exactly
If any much worse.
exactly
damnation doesnt have to mean trannies in the streets at all hours
maybe that will come with time, maybe not
but in the metaphysical sense, the damage is already done
we're already in the end times
the scary thing is being in the end times and feeling that things are fine
