    I never understood how that trope of "cursed document that immediately turns anyone who views it into a jaded soulless husk" until I read this article (warning: it will unironically turn you into a doomer if you weren't already one)

      Not that bad, really.

      Death itself, the void, and the erasure of all things? Whatever. The knowledge that bourgeois interests created and are exacerbating this problem, they're aware of it, and are going full speed ahead not giving a shit about all the suffering they've created? Now that's jading.

          What they think (or don't think) of me is of no interest to my ego; they have already declared war against the working class and human civilization as we know it.

          only to them, the blind and the vilest creatures in the world.

          we are the finest humanity can offer, the spark of love in this loveless world. We carry a new world in our hearts and we will win that world. Or we will all die. No pressure tho.

      Could go harder, what I find the most interesting in this is the processing that we are indeed doomed, and how to still go along and prolong the struggle by understanding how each moment is valuable, and getting out of our bubble that will crash whether we want it or not. What is to be done, even if we're dead 100 years from now ?
