It seems like nobody is willing here in the US to actually throw themselves into a revolt or meaningful change because our conditions are just good enough.

I still see everyone around me going for the best social status, the best job, the best car, the biggest house, and completely ignoring all the major flashing red lights.

I feel like a crazy person, like one of those people that’s missing the point. I feel surrounded by lunatics and typically that means you’re the crazy one but I just know I can’t be in this situation, it makes no sense.

Why is it like this? Why do I feel surrounded by NPCs? I can’t connect to pretty much anyone here. It all seems so trivial.

I don’t want to sound elitist or anything I just can’t see how people still don’t see the full picture

What to do?

    Honestly, that’s just how people in the US are, or that’s how I think they are, since I don’t live there, it’s not like in other countries is far better, but at least not so rampantly voracious and neoliberal as in there. If you ever can, move the hell out of that country.

    You are not crazy, they are brainwashed and alienated.

      I want to really bad. The only reasons I’m staying are because I can’t afford to and also don’t want to give up on the potential of a revolution here but it seems dimmer by the day
