Just a vent post.
I hate myself so much that those negative feelings leak into every facet of my life. A year or two ago I would've claimed to love and adore my sisters more than anything in the world, today, I can hardly stand a conversation with them. I envy them. It's horrible but I feel so much jealousy for the difference in responsibility— as the eldest, their timelines and experiences, their general worldviews, even the way they look. They don't deserve my resentment. It's no fault of theirs that I hate myself and can't put in the work to change my life because I'm a lazy miserable bum. I resent my parents, I resent my friends, I resent everyone and every thing and put up higher walls every day.

Above all, I resent the people who built and nourish a world that encourages greed and selfishness, and discourages empathy, love, and kindness. It sounds self-contradictory considering I just outed myself as being full of disdain, but my hate is my own problem, I try not to make it anyone else's. I actively fight negative thoughts I have about others, which usually come about after the cauldron of self-directed insults boils over. These villains live without a care in the world for anyone but themselves. It fills me with genuine dread and tips the scale further in favor of hopelessness every day Iʻm met with a new form of advertising or a new headline to click and read about another crime against humanity. I cannot begin to understand how someone might live with themselves hoarding blood money while people, animals, and plants are killed. They arenʻt just dying, they are intentionally being discarded for the sake of oiling the machine.

When capitalismʻs cancerous touch has infected every corner of the Earth, even the parts I still manage to enjoy, why should I take up space—compliant at best, an active participant and perpetrator at worst--if I donʻt even like myself. Iʻve talked and thought myself in circles for years— there is no light at the end of the tunnel, not for me at least. I just want to die. It gets worse every year as Iʻm immersed further into adulthood and grow privy to the workings of ʻthe real worldʻ.

Also this wasnʻt written by AI, I am staunchly anti-generative-AI. I donʻt even know if I use em dashes correctly, I just use them because it feels right and I have free will! Wish I could articulate my feelings a bit better and more effectively. I hope maybe someone relates. Some people claim to feel the same way but seemingly donʻt encounter the same moral dilemma when they choose to be a marketing major.

I think a lot of people feel this way right now, you're definitely not alone. Makes me feel crazy sometimes lol especially with generative ai being everywhere. The greed is endless.

I went to a wholesale store and saw them selling Dubai chocolate bars at $35 for 3 bars. I fucking hate the consumerist now.

I fucking hate it so much too. I hate having to pay to live. Struggling to survive as a disabled person while rich people get to sit cozy in their ivory towers making money off of slave labor. Can't even be homeless. It's illegal to sleep in your car in many states, to loiter, can't access the food bank without an address, can't even dig through the dumpster for scraps without being cited. I had a dream a certain someone in power who I can't name died, and waking up to that reality being crushed was one of the worst mornings I've had in a while.

I'm full of anger and resentment too. I try to reason with myself. Am I being reasonable?

I suppose at the base level, I just resent my parents for bringing me into this- realising what it was and, expecting me to thrive. I hate being a part of this corrupt world and I hate feeling like I can't leave it because it would upset them. It just feels such an unfair trap to put someone in. Let alone someone you claim to love!

But yeah. I don't enjoy feeling so angsty. It's exhausting. Even that feeds back though into the whole: Why was any of this necessary? Why are we subjected to this? Which again falls on parents. Because it's what they wanted.

My questioning of whether I'm being reasonable tends to relate to intention. Did they intend for me to be unhappy? No. Was there enough reason to consider I might suffer though? Yes. Could they have spared me some suffering but, didn't? Yes. Is it even reasonable for parents to think they can protect us from the very worst in this world? No.

So- I still tend to end up with: Why on earth did they inflict this on us? I guess maybe because they were more or less ok though. Ok enough to feel life was worth living anyway. And, maybe the majority of people feel that so, they just assume we will too. Common sense tends to tell me otherwise but then, maybe even common sense has its own bias.
