Sure, we may buy things we don't need, we all do (do you REALLY need the computer you're using right now?) But we work to survive. Life is pretty damn hard. You can complain about it all you want, about all the lies, about all this "giant machine of money" crap, but at the end of the day, what have you accomplished? What do you hope to accomplish? Do you think the world is going to stop revolving around money, just because it's wrong? And is it really wrong? Face it, we've evolved past the way of living like the Na'vi. Adapt.

And to be fair, lots of people have jobs they love.


I have to ask, what exactly are you planning to do with YOUR life? Or what do you want to do?


Also, take fapping out of that list of social activities; that's still free.
First, it's an opinion article: I can feel however I want and express it however I need. Not that I am pessimistic, I just relate the part of reality that is tangible and that exists in this very moment. I have hope for the future, but we need a good plan and a common goal first of all. And that is hard to find, and I won't post here anything begging for help on it or show an imperfect and easy to criticize solution. Thus I post the pessimistic part of my thoughts, which is real, material and easy to see and understand.

Second, I know where I live, I know what I do and what I'm going to do with my life. I'm devoting my life to change this and work for a fairer world for everyone. Yes, cheap promises, but it's my main goal in life.

"Lots of people have jobs they love"? Perhaps you do...

Ah, and I'm not taking fapping out of the list.
