Instead of paragraphs, I'm just gonna make a list of shit that I used to enjoy, but can't now:
- professional sports
- my country and its fucking holidays
- literally any film except like ok foreign kinda leftist pieces like Parasite
- most video games (if they're not full of ideology like COD, they're full of grind mechanics)
- my career (I just want to teach and go home, advancement seems pointless)
- most white people I know now, because their views are terrible
- traditionally "hot" people (see above), I'm not saying that white people aren't attractive, but generic middle class ones certainly aren't
- a homestead, I used to have a house and care about furniture and aesthetics and shit, now I want the least amount of expence and maintenance
- meeting new people, if you're not at least a radlib, I don't have time for you
- hanging out with lib workmates
- FB & IG type social media
- porn, I can't unsee a worker getting the value of their labour appropriated
Yes, Yugopnik just made a video about this recently
Edit: I somehow forgot that "enjoying things" is a regular struggle session here. Listen, no one is being attacked or judged. I assumed a lot of you can't enjoy 1-2 normal things now that you used to. I'm sorry I phrased it in a way to make it seem like games and films are bad.
Just had to describe policing and why it is institutionally rotten to a friend who has the idea that police solve crimes and make him feel safe
