Edit: of course this is satire. The power of the reading comprehension devil grows stronger every day 😢

    America is such a living hell that like I don’t even want to participate in a revolution. It’s just going to be a libturd or right-wing-hog revolution anyways. I really think a lot of my social ills, anxiety and depression just comes from the world I live in. I truly believe I am a product of my environment. I would leave the United States in a heartbeat with just the clothes on my back. The only time I’ve ever been happy is when I was able to commute on my bicycle. Ever since COVID, people have been driving like fucking jackasses. And now I live in an area that I can’t ride my bike no more. I have never been so depressed in my whole fucking miserable life. Like a scientist, I want to see if it’s me or my environment. I think America causes physical and mental illness. I sometimes think if it were up to me and I wasn’t allowed to leave the United States, but I could die in a nuclear explosion and just completely wipe off USA from the face of the earth. I say to myself, I would push that fucking button for future generations, for the world. The world is capitalistic and the Yankee has a lot of leverage, a lot of places in Europe start adopting the Yankee way. It terrifies me, knowing that American culture like the disease that it is Spreads like a plus-filled rash. I am very unhappy. These feelings compile over time. And you’re in such agony. You try to figure out why. And then eventually it clicks. America is a piece of shit.

      You can move out of America, try. I’m an American living abroad for decades now, and left with nearly zero cash and made a great life abroad.

      Plot twist though, everywhere still has problems, just different ones, and the US’ bullcrap affects everyone everywhere including you no matter where you are. (Have why I still care and pay attention to it).

      On the subject of this post, I live in a super walkable city, Shanghai, and do everything by bike (amazing, world class bike lanes), walking, subway, taxi, bus etc. and don’t have or need a car, it’s awesome.
