People are disconnected from their own thoughts and feelings, reject them entirely, with zero empathy. “Life’s easier that way”. There is something very fundamental missing. I couldn’t imagine living with zero empathy or insight or emotions, or awareness of my emotions. Those are the things that make life worth living ime. Appreciate suffering for the experience, but don’t let it stand, get to the point and keep pushing. Evolution is a slow process, and I think we are a bit behind the times we’ve created for ourselves.
That’s a big part of what makes me feel so utterly disconnected these days. This utter and complete, not just indifference, but active disdain for empathy and insight in every fucking matter possible. Freedom dies when I’m not allowed to make somebody’s life worse for fun and/or profit. Also, anyone who considers another’s needs is an emotional snowflake but they’ve allowed themselves to be taught that rage, anger, and hate aren’t emotions? Way more “snowflake” IMO.
