This is not for fun. Some questions.

I was going to post in "just for fun" but this is not for fun.

How does anyone here not hate everything? How does anyone feel anything positive about the direction our collective conscious mind is headed? How does anyone feel relaxed? What is morality? Are any of us moral? Is life really a gift? What about when your gluttonous Americanized existence does more harm than good for the planet? Does that make your life a plague?

What are we other than parasites?

The answer to your question is alcohol.  If that doesn't work, try Xanax.

No, there isn't a collective conscious mind, yes, we are parasites.

Id get off the computer.

Thanks to anyone who answers though. Just having a bit of open thought vomit on the forum.

The movers and shakers are there because they worked hard to get there.

If what they do bothers you, work harder than them and take them out.

Otherwise, stop crying about it.  It changes nothing.

We are all individuals with the capacity for individual thoughts and perspectives. This has always been case and the internet has no bearing on this principle.

If your 'gluttonous Americanized lifestyle' is bothering you, then change it. No one is forcing anyone to get fat, under achieve and blindly agree with everything Rachel Maddow (sp)or whoever tells you.

We're not a plague on the Earth. Those who try to manipulate our minds with propoganda, wage wars under the ruse of national security or rig our economic system for failure for their own self gain are the plague. Don't let them make you feel guilty for driving a car or eating meat. Take control. Get a grip.

I'm not getting at you personally, btw..

Thanks dude. Omg! I didn't know that if I worked hard enough I could help the Indonesian people take back their government from the capitalist criminals that committed mass genocides! I didn't see my questions as complaining. I saw my questions as actual things that I wanted to ask the individuals on this site. I want to know why everyone else doesn't want to kill themselves. I want to know how other people look at their lives and the lives of the people in the world around them and continue living. The only thing that you did is complain about me complaining.

Very successful people have more power of influence than the lesser.  Individuals have made big changes in the past, and will continue to do so in the future. 

It is good that you realized you will never be powerful enough to change anything, at least you are honest to yourself in that regard.

I am not successful.  However, I do wish I had the time on my hands to think about killing myself.  The fact is, I have people to take care of, which means I don't have that luxury.
