    Why are you shadowboxing comments?Nobody said to reject the system or even to try and fix it. Nobody said to go live at a bus stop. I don’t know why you think that’s what we’re saying or if you’re hot off another convo and getting things mixed up but it’s just not at all what we’re saying.

    Again, you can accept that capitalism is the system we have without saying it’s the best system ever and you love it. You can get kidnapped without developing stockholm syndrome.

    I replied further down but I’ll do it here. I’m not saying go live in the woods to escape or anything like that.

    You can accept that you are just a cog in the capitalist machine without simping for the very machine that’s crushing you.

    I’m not sure how people are getting something else from what I wrote. I thought I was pretty clear. You can accept that you’ve been kidnapped without developing stockholm syndrome.

    The downvotes are from a misunderstanding. I didn’t say to reject capitalism or go live in the woods to escape it or anything like that.

    I’m saying you can accept that you are nothing but a cog in the capitalist machine without simping for the very machine that’s crushing you.

    People seem to be reading what they want to read in these comments.





  • I’ll upvote, seems genuine and I don’t want to discourage that. I understand it’s difficult to find someone to talk to who wants to hear what you have to say. Even I don’t share things with my friends cuz I feel like I’m “dumping on them”. I saw a therapist twice a month and that was nice, but it was just too expensive to maintain.

    Your last sentence is what stood out to me. It’s such a harsh finality but there’s no possible way you could have tried talking to every human to KNOW none of them want to hear you talk. I know it’s extreme. I know it feels true right now. But there is no substitute for genuine human connection. Use the AI, just be careful you don’t become dependent on it. And don’t think it can be a long-term substitute.
