I despair at existence because the average person looks to nothing to justify everything and hopes God will sort out the rest which just means looking to the status quo to keep existing as a comfort blanket. As if modern existence is anything but the latest form of nothingness given style.

I'll tell you what partner. You can pontificate and moralize and strawman AFTER you've gotten your own **** straight. Then we can have a real discussion. What makes you think you have any right to lecture me about how I choose (or not choose) how to live my life when you don't give two ****s whether I live or die anyway? You've never given me much of an impression that you operate at some morally superior plane to anyone else I've met. Get over yourself.
I'm very interested in democratic socialism because it's better than the corporatism that has swallowed up the U.S. and is in the process of doing so in China and India (among other places). You don't seem to think that's enough for an individual person, but I'm not the one who calls the shots or makes the rules. I wasn't lucky enough to be born into the top 1%. Too bad.
I'd probably agree with you more about other things if you didn't have such a ****ty attitude and mentality about everything, but I also don't know everything that's going on in your life. It's not my place to judge you one way or the other, so I don't expect you to judge me either when you don't have the insight to do so.
