If it were legal, and mind you this is hilarious to me, I'd disappear into the woods and never return or put my coin into the suicide booth, but as I said it isn't legal. Land is somehow owned and never by the people that need it the most, and bodily autonomy isn't even ours.
I get what you're saying, but I pay my taxes and participate in this machine just like anyone else, but I don't like it. And the system isn't flawed. It works as it is meant to.
This country, US, doesn't want me and I have nothing to provide any other country so I'm stuck, and I'm certainly to weak and cowardly to fight anyone or anything over my bleak views.
I mean modern society as a whole. The serfdom, the racism, the capitalism, the voting, the suffering etc. I didn't want any of this and I'm expected to participate and if I don't there's something wrong with me and not the systems. Your gut reaction proves it pretty well thinking that's selfish and evil.
The only value this human existence creates is for a select few to live a life of ultimate hedonism. We're cattle, forced to reproduce to keep the consumptions flowing all the while having every aspect of our interests and personalities manipulated and mined for a few more pennies. Inevitably we'll be kept alive far beyond our best by date so that our failing minds can be used to pressured into voting the wrong people into power to ensure the cycle continues. It's a machine of suffering.
Also, the irony of the image above being most likely AI generated isn't lost on me.
Positive nihilism is coping. Choosing to be happy while being crushed is coping. The truth is suffering is the point and has been for nearly as long as humans have been around. Those of you that choose happiness are impling that those of us that aren't happy are choosing the pain. You're putting the onus on us. It's nice that you've found a path that works for you.
If humans went extinct the planet would find balance.
