Anyone have any advice on just kind of hating people in general less? I look at people, I know they’re huge on religious doctrines and societal models I have no place in, and I just can’t see any good in them worth considering. I try to go outside and connect with people, but everyone looks like a 4channer, or someone two slights away from becoming a 4channer. I can’t restrain the fear or loathing. It’s like the past twenty years have reduced my very capacity for compassion and my capacity to respect anyone period to molten slag.

Heteronormative society and all who uphold it fucking blow, but I’m expected to keep it in my pants re: how and when I take it out on them.

    Do you work retail? Cuz not working retail helped a lot. I got laid off from my manufacturing job and had to go back to it and now I'm considering worshiping the ruinous powers to bring humanity to and end in the name of CHAOS!

      I work in retail full-time and somehow don't hate people, so that's some sort of achievement I suppose

      Retail is the fastest route to motherfuckin hating Amerikans; deep enough to consider sellin they asses out to their enemies when someone finally gets their nuts up to attack us; these consumers ain't housebroke at all.

      Night of the Consumers isn't a horror game, it's a fuckin documentary

      This is why I keep saying I can't go back to retail; I will lose everything that makes me a comrade but my theoretical knowledge if I have to work that ring of hell again.

        Seriously it's bad for worker solidarity too. The turnover rate is so high and so many employees are either teenagers or retired people just trying to make extra cash, so often surrounded by lazy and/or incompetent people who frustrate you to no end. I have so many shifts where I'm the only one working while everyone else has their thumb up there ass, some stoner fuck forgot how to use the key duplication machine despite me showing him 20 FUCKING TIMES! and a cashier who's worked here a year is asking me WHAT AISLE THE BATHROOM IS IN!!!

          Four years in food service retail here. I felt all of this. Add to that a completely inept manager who loves Israel and it's a small wonder I hate people now lmao.
