I feel like I'm going fucking crazy because working retail Christmas just becomes the most dystopian shit imagineable. Everyone is fighting and honking at each other in the parking lot, everyone is in a rush, the lines are long, everything is out of stock...
How do people even enjoy this? It's miserable and stressful. No one I've seen today looks chipper. Everyone seems anxious and miserable. Maybe half of the people I saw today are going to go home and have a fight about some old emotional wound that was ripped open by the fact that the market was out of sour cream.
I keep thinking of what Breht said: you're propagandized to think you are the freest person to ever exist but everything in your life tells you the opposite. Do other people feel that same alienation we feel? Is there something inherently wrong with our biology that led us to these miserable ass conclusions? How do other people not fucking see this? Does it just scare them? Are they too dumb to imagine things could be different? Is everyone too uneducated?
Do Americans even deserve communism at this point?
edit: to add, I've felt like I was fucking insane my entire ass life. Even school seemed crazy to me. You're just expected to live with the society around us, and the majority of people I seem to know would literally die to defend it, even as homelessness explodes. Fuck, I remember the first time I was ever in a big traffic jam I was like "how the fuck does anyone put up with this? Are they stupid? Do they just not get it? You're losing hours of your life EVERYDAY being miserable and frustrated just for the egoic pleasure of having your own space, which IS A MISERABLE ALIENATING PLACE
Yeah, its crazy. My Grandpa usually buys all the grandkids a ton of things for Christmas, but this time was just chocolate and a card to use to avoid getting ticketed (he's a corrupt ex cop). He wanted to get a ton of other stuff but it was all out of stock.
