    I completely lost my faith in humanity in 2016, don’t see any chance to regain it.

          Where are you going? If it’s online, remember the people that run the major platforms have a vested interest in reducing your opinion of other human beings.

            Plenty of videos of English white nationalists being shitheads. The rise of the AfD party. Italy has a rising fascism problem and Meloni. Hungary with Orbán. I’m sure there are more examples. Face it, the western world is having an identity crisis.

              Those people 100% exist and they are not an insignificant minority. All I’m saying is that platforms like YouTube, X, Facebook, etc are amplifying those voices. They have an outsized voice in online communication.

                Oh for sure. I think if the Internet didn’t exist their voices would be much smaller.

            Mainly western Europe. Most people consider their comfort way more important than other people’s survival.
