Look, this isn't really about dooming. That's not my goal. I just, kinda need to vent, frens. I've been lurking here for months. Every time someone I knew said something from the MSM, I knew I could find the full story here. So here is where I came. I read what I could, crossreferenced whatever information I came across, and felt confident in my ability to come to my own conclusions.

This all feels so... wrong. It feels like the world is on tilt about an inch, and nothing that can be done can stop all your shit from sliding away.

Things just get consistently worse; we're about to see an economic crash so massive that it's gonna make the Great Depression look like that time you lost $5 from your pocket. The US currency is depreciating because the stimulus cheques will only go as far as the value inherent to the dollar. With all the small business either bought up, sold out, vandalized or closed by unlawful edict, governments bailing out foreign interests and a long list of other poor decisions, I can't help but feel like it's about to wither away.

I have high hopes for the future. I do. But I'm just not really seeing a way out. I don't know how people can see the kind of statistical and logistical anomalies that we're seeing from this election, or the bold face lies from the media about all of this, from the protesting to the rioting and even the virus, and still hold that this is the best way forward.

I just feel like none of this can be real. It's wrong. It feels wrong. It feels like circling the drain, and I want to stop that feeling. I want to see some tangible improvement in the world around me, and I don't. I feel empty platitudes and see plausible deniability as we circle the drain.

I won't blame you in the slightest. I won't even accuse you of being a doomer. Shit has gone off the rails at this point and I don't know what to do or what's next. Personally, I'm just going to wait till tomorrow to see what's next.

Yep. A good nights sleep (well, as good as can reasonably be expected...) is a good first step. A lot to process.
