I'm an oldgay who can't get the hang of nuIQfy and the trend of completely ignoring (missing) what was said in favor of nitpicking and shit flinging. I don't really care if some anon has a weird sense if punctuation.
Accountability is quite overrated. Societies aren’t islands and people have to be urged to reciprocate others, if a man is not receiving this in order to keep the system intact, he’s under no obligation to act cordial to everyone else involved.
Not wordiness, unnecessary wordiness. And bad sentence structure. In fact I'll go the extra mile and justify myself with an improved rewrite.
I can find no word to describe the modern American male better than "torpor". He is thrust into an uncaring world where every path is decided for him. His thoughts are instructed, his emotions are medicated, and so he feels a lack of agency floating day to day in total indifference. At some point in his life, he will look in the mirror teary eyed and ask "Is this it?" Suddenly existential frustrations will well up inside him and sit like a yoke around his neck to be carried every day. Rather than fight this burden, he will resign to indifference, as has characterized his entire life, until he dies. Sometimes by his own hand.
people need to read more books, seriously. It restructures your thoughts, your feelings become complex and in no need of medication, it helps when tragedy happens - both to interpret it and to accept it. You need to read a lot of good novels and good poetry, and in general interact with high culture. Americans don't do that because they have watched hours on end of movies where everyone who thinks is evil, where the status quo is always re-established by gun wielding do-gooders, and because in general american media pander (paternalistically) to the "people", which they believe to be stupid, and for which therefore they produced stupider and stupider content through the years trying to appeal to their basest desires. "Torpor" is what you get when you build a society where sophistication and complexity are looked down at from the height of moral "simplicity". To think that this country produced Whitman makes me sad every time, because he really proposed a virtuous version of american individualism which in itself could have significantly advanced human culture if properly followed. Instead, America has chosen the individualism of eating junk food in front of trash TV because it's your god given right to do so. Thank god the idea is out there, maybe in a few centuries it will develop into something new. Right now, all you can do to break the conditioning of american society (and american propaganda, if you don't live in the US) is stop buying as much stuff as possible and read WAY more books.
The person anon is describing is an npc and they have always existed. Sure, it's harder to find meaning now that church, family, and community have been effectively destroyed. Real homies like me grinding in the forests and deserts of meaning, warriors with rare esoteric armor, take all this in stride. The core of our being, our ancestral blood memory, can never be erased. >existential yoke
How gay. There's no fricking yoke. The path is clear. Git gud scrub.
That’s probably why so many of us (but not me) reject the concept of free will because the powers that be don’t let us have one. However through my written insights I intend to change this.

Standard narcissistic interpretation of the world
>it would make me miserable so they are miserable!
>completely missing the point

What point? That you're a homosexual? Bang roasted gtfo my board gay b***h
Why not just do something else? lol
That would require taking accountability for oneself and growing up.

It's worse yet not worst yet. Spelling aside, his writing is terrible. Use less words.
>Use less words
So your main criticism is wordiness?
How so?
Not wordiness, unnecessary wordiness. And bad sentence structure. In fact I'll go the extra mile and justify myself with an improved rewrite.
