So I finally found places like thedonald and parler and other .win sites where I still don’t have friends but I feel slightly more included, I get upvotes, I don’t get hated on like I have all my life just because I have a differing opinion on life and society to others on social media.

That’s all I seem to do wrong is have a “bad opinion” and that gets me hated. I feel so alone right now and I’m guessing so do millions of others and now I’m seeing the last few places I felt accepted being removed.

Am I a bad person? I’ve not hurt anyone, I may have said/wrote things people don’t agree with but I never attack someone, I never try to cancel someone, I love discussion and going back and forth with others to find out the differences in opinion we all have in this wonderful diverse world. I love people, race and religion doesn’t even cross my mind, I don’t want to see harm brought to anyone. I just want somewhere to go where I don’t feel like an outcast anymore.

I’m very lucky I’m not suicidal because this world we are being dragged into is going to kill so many others like myself, I feel so sad and worried of what is coming. I just wish these big tech companies could show a little compassion towards those like me who just want to fit in, want to find friends, want to feel accepted.

We have all learned that this world is a very diverse place and we have all learned to accept that’s how it is but now those exact same things we have learned are being used to attack a single group of people. People like myself. This goes against “accepting others” and “hate crimes” because I feel so hated and unaccepted right now that I’m scared to even talk and now I’m even being gagged from talking.

A wise man once told me “opinions are like arseholes, we’ve all got one”. Is their arsehole worth more than mine?

tldr; I’m depressed and lonely and big tech are adding to that loneliness and I thank sites like this for helping me feel not so lonely in a very desperate time.

Don't be sad man, sometimes you have to be your own friend. Get audible and listen to books, exercise. Listen to podcasts on whatever interests you or business, there is always value to be added to life that you haven't even discovered yet.

I’ve worked non stop throughout this whole fiasco, I go for walks as often as I can, i eat healthy, I appreciate nature and love visiting my local beaches, I enjoy flying my drone and editing videos, I do all the things I get told that will make me feel better but no matter what happens, I’ve always got this phone in my pocket which is apparently a communication device, now it’s just turned into a device to drag me down into despair in my spare time and makes me feel a million times worse. Leaving it behind doesn’t even seem like an option and all I want is to converse with others.

I say I don’t agree with masks when I used to post on Reddit, then I get “I hope you and all your family catch Covid and die a slow death”. That seems to be ok, they get tonnes of upvotes, I get hated and inboxed and banned, just because I disagreed. This is why I enjoyed parler so much, I would get tonnes of upvotes and it feels great, I felt accepted.
