I think I've finally desensitized to the complaints of others

Everybody is angry and outraged about everything all the time, even tv and videogames. I think if someone's biggest problem is the casting decisions of a movie director, Twitter, or JK Rowling then they're living an incredibly privilaged life.

I don't know where this puritanical attitude comes from, but I imagine it's a sort of learned narcissism due to social media being a part of life now. Everyone wants to cancel eachother, people engage in mob stalking and bully mentalities whilst patting themselves on the back publiclly saying "look how moral I am". It just reeks of a lack of self awareness and character to me.

It seems like humility is a lost concept to many today.

Qatar is a muslim country. Muslims dont like gays. I knew this as a fucking child but today all the gays be like boycott qatar..
They say about human rights.
They say about the deaths
Yet here they are sat in their privilege doing fuck all except for typing on social media.
I wrote a very heavy worded letter to the mp asking why the gov and FA haven't put in measures to support their supporters. This was 4 years ago yet 4 years later people banging on about the same shit

@Gangstress exactly, during the heatwave last year I didn't make a virtue signaling post about it, I wrote my MP about the need for precautionary infrastructure to deal with the changing climate. No response obviously.
