I freaking love being wrong, mostly because most of the things I predict are bad/stupid things and heyyy look at that, everything is going to shit just like I thought it would. I would LOVE for something to surprise me.
I have predicted pretty everything that has happened since 9/11
I hate being right about things that are so fucked
I've been right about the good things too, but unfortunately they're less frequent than the shitty stuff at the moment
And by "moment", I mean last 25 bloody years...
I was surprised three times about a political thing in the last months, all of them positive:
I'm pessimistic about a lot of things, but compared to many people I know, I'm tentatively optimistic about the US. It looks to me like they're still “only” doing voter suppression at a scale that isn't close to “Nazi Brownshirts standing in the booths”.
I've been told for years I'm overreacting about international politics, Fascism spreading in USA, Climate change, and lately, Fascism spreading in Europe.
I am so fucking sick of being right all the time, but I just can't stop. Everything keeps getting worse. It's like we've all adopted Russia's political roadmap: "Everything fucking sucked, and then it got worse".
you would call it Cassandra syndrome, but some Cunt stole that term already
Its the worst the best is to just be silly enough that nobody takes you seriously and yells at you for being right most of the time so you don't feel so bitter when they always agreed with you later and also you get yo be silly being silly is better than being correct
