I wanted to be a developer, and create the kind of games that I wanted to play. Now, I just want to survive.

I feel that there is some world that others were brought into, that I was left too long to believe that I am a part of it, and I suffered a lot, trying to have the normalcy that others take for granted.

This is not my world, I don’t belong in it. My goal is to become independent enough to not have to worry about other humans exploiting me at all, or die trying.

    Ok, so if your country goes to war, I expect you to instantly start shooting your own troops.

    I just know that your way never works out in real life. The amount of death, destruction, horror that would come about of applying your ideology would be incomprehensible.

    You can’t view everything so black and white. These are normal people who signed up to do something they thought was right, only to be pushed into an unexpected war, their lives and livelihoods, their honor, their people at stake. But when push comes to shove, many of them just won’t co-operate in the war, and those people aren’t typically televised.

    Many of us willingly or unwillingly participate in questionable systems, burning fossil fuels as a side-effect. This does not mean we want to, self-preservation is a thing. But for example: even though I depend on many of the goods going through the suez cannal, I root for it’s closure, for the destruction of fossil fuels. I have a portable solar panel, and I want to transition to 100% energy independence and my own grown food.

    Look at the army for freedom of Russia that is fighting it’s own country. Quite a few defectors helping Ukraine.

    You only make things worse by rejecting these people as scum, by not leaving any room for their humanity. You kill who you must to protect yourself, you try to get them to defect to your side, and you can’t do that by damning them right away.

    These people were just like you, believing they would rise up against their tyrannical government, and lay down their lives for the greater good, but it is not so simple or easy.

    I’m a misanthrope, less men = less people long-term, less rape from men due to less men = less hate for men, works for me all-around. Humans more isolated in general, also works for me, because my entire thing lately is I think humans will exploit each other as long as they are allowed to, a.k.a as long as they keep being together. Men and women isolating themselves is not the ideal way to achieve this, but it is a way.

    I’m not even going to hide it, it serves my other isolationist agenda. Plus, If women can no longer trust men, and men tend to be pretty upset about it, them just not being together would solve this problem pretty fast, this also goes in line with my belief that supply and demand does apply to humans too, so the less of them there are around, the more valuable all of them are.

    Any time there is a thread speaking about independence, cutting people off, growing your own food, etc, I tend to get right on it. I didn’t even get upset that women want to not interact with men, because I am primed to accept not being wanted, I don’t consider this world mine.

    There it is, no lies.
