things we need to address:
gen z men getting pulled into alt-right pipelines through andrew tate, joe rogan, elon musk, jordan peterson etc
the gullibility and stupidity of half the country voting against our collective best interests
the broad effect social media has on public and common good
lazy minds and lack of empathy
outside-country interference (trump and elon’s connections to russia and the amount of bots from other countries spreading misinformation)
the long-term effects of AI and rampant disinformation
reblog this version instead
here’s more
uninformed voters
misogyny and a concerning amount of young women turning to trad life
lack of spirituality. humans for whatever reason need this (a sense of purpose in life) or else they go crazy at the collective level. i personally am not a fan of religion but religion isn’t the same thing as spirituality. essentially, concern with the soul and self-growth than material interests. they can and should exist simultaneously so that one informs the other (otherwise how would you live, in a purely spiritual world, practically speaking?). so many people are aimlessly looking for something, hence why many are turning to guys like jordan peterson, but they are looking in the wrong places and being pulled into regressive ideologies that hurt the people around them rather than enrich the lives of themselves and others.
we need greater awareness of ourselves, how we think, patterns in behavior, honesty, and truth. we need to understand what all human beings have in common at the basic level, what they want and need, and start from there.
edit: re: sprituality: i edited it some, what im trying to say is that people want meaning in their life. i shouldve worded it better.
