It doesn’t disprove what you’re saying. I’m saying that coming into a shitpost community where the vibe is supposed to be fun and communicating negatively might be a symptom of not being able to communicate positively irl.
It can be hard and I’m sorry if it is for you, but what do you expect from people? Good vibes are contagious
"Good vibes" and toxic positivity are tools of fascism. I can't talk about climate change around people cause they'd think I'm being a debby-downer.
Same thing with wealth disparity, poverty, starvation, disability, disease, conflict, displacements, etc. Can't talk about these issues, serious problems in the world, cause everyone's like "dude, good vibes only." Can't talk about corruption and fascism itself because people don't want that "negativity."
Maybe I'm cynical, but it's not without good reason. Maybe if the world held space for more cynicism then we could actually start working on some of the problems we face. But no. Can't have that. Good vibes, dude.
If I need to keep my mouth shut about all the bad things going on in the world in order to be accepted by others, then I'd honestly rather be an outcast...
You don't have to keep your mouth shut about the bad things going on in the world to be nice to people.
The same way an ongoing climate collapse, the rise of real fascism in america (not just 'being friendly' to people as you say) multiple wars and multiple capital G genocides does not mean you've got to be shitty to everyone around you just because they're not perfectly aligned with the way you speak.
Maybe try to take a minute and instead of reading everything in bad faith by instantly thinking the worst of someone who you know nothing about based purely on an internet comment, use the phrase "Dont make perfect the enemy of good."
If you want to stay a self imposed outast, that's fine too. But remember nobody is making it out alive if everyone tries to make it alone.
this is a shitpost community
And I think this post is shit, so there you go!
