“Society is Hopeless,” a Stoic Perspective of this Current Era

There’s no other way to put it. You can be as optimistic as can be. Reality has shown us otherwise. The more I observe in a day-to-day basis, the more I realize how doomed we are. Every generation seems to get worse. I know this isn’t the first time this has happened. Throughout history, we’ve seen the continuous rise and fall of empires. This is just a sign that we’re heading toward a downward spiral as anti-intellectualism continues to spread.

I find myself no longer caring about giving my honest input even if it’s brilliant, and I’m asked to because I know it will go through deaf ears. The truth is hated with a passion, so people who know me KNOW not to ask me for my input if they don’t want to hear the cold, hard truth. Essentially, giving advice is very pointless. I’m best off taking my own advice and making sure I’m heading in the right direction.

As the years go by, I care less and less about “helping” people because most people don’t want to be helped – they don’t listen, and they’re not receptive to anything real. They just want to hear what they want. They prefer an ego stroke that will keep them stagnant, rather than a reality check that can catapult their growth. They want somebody who’ll kiss their ass and feed them with lies and delusions that make them feel good and comfortable. I’m not the type of person who will sit back and encourage stupid decision-making. For this reason, I’ve chosen to stay to myself and keep my distance because I know my advice is not something people like to hear – unless they’re for real.

Real people have become extinct because most people are more concerned about maintaining a fake image, and they don’t have the courage to be themselves. They don’t even know who they are. We’ve gotten to the point where a facade is more appreciated than authenticity. It is because authenticity is so hated that I have given less of a fuck as each year goes by. It seems like people learn better the hard way because they will never listen to wisdom.

To them, wisdom is “lame.” Because destroying your own life with stupid decisions is WAY MORE exciting, and it will get SO MANY likes. Hell, you might get rich off of it, right?

Who cares?

There’s no need for standards, right? So why would they even bother to look for real insight?

Knowledge is viewed as “lame.”
Wise counsel makes life boring to them until shit hits the fan, and they’re in a world full of regret and misery. Most people have to burn their hand multiple times for them to understand why it shouldn’t be done.

Most people are so easily programmed and controlled, it’s not even funny – this makes it difficult to trust them because at any moment, they can turn on you. They have no identity. Whatever is “trending” becomes etched into themselves.

They’re not even aware that their personality has been largely manufactured by whatever agenda is being pushed. The human mind today seems to have been merged with the machine because of this “hivemind” nature that’s been socially engineered. Independent thought has gone extinct. Most don’t think for themselves, and freethinkers are crucified and misunderstood.

There’s also a “lack-of-empathy” epidemic and having a sense of humanity is looked down upon because it is viewed as a weakness. As rare as it is to come across good people, the first thing the soulless want to do to them is use and abuse them and then call them “stupid” for allowing them to take advantage of them. This is why wisdom is important for those who still have a soul. The soulless will stop at nothing to take everything you’ve got until you’re too far gone to get back up again.

We are living in some dark times. This is not the era to be naive and trusting. You need to protect yourself more instead of wearing your heart on your sleeve. A heart today is nothing more than a crimson gemstone the soulless want to reap.

The destruction of souls excites the soulless. It is viewed as a virtual reality game where points are earned every time they obliterate a person. Then, they’ll look for ways to justify their evil deeds, victim blame, and then seal it with “You should’ve known I was going to hurt you.” Such a disgusting time we’re living in, and because of this, we need to stop letting people know that we have a heart. Hide that shit until you know for sure that they’re on the same vibe, but most people are not.

Cultivating intelligence and talent is largely overlooked because the agenda is to condition the masses to never reach a certain level of discernment and autonomy. It is done by design. It’s to discourage people from advancing because it appears like there’s no incentive to grow educationally, intellectually, spiritually, and mentally. When stupidity gets rewarded, it’s hard to motivate people to do anything meaningful.

FINAL THOUGHTS

A good heart is not compatible with this world, but that doesn’t mean you should allow it to corrupt you. You just need to protect yourself and learn more about human behavior and dark psychology. Knowing the enemy is key to being able to read and detect them when they try to get close to you. Don’t be paranoid, but be aware and stand your ground.

“Go ghost” or “monk-mode” and ignore the noise. Don’t waste your time and energy on people and places that don’t serve you or invest in you in any way. If you’re not learning anything from the workplace, relationship, or any connection, it’s not worth it. Don’t waste your life trying to please the unsatisfiable. Stop being so giving to the ungrateful.

All that energy you gave to the wrong people, you should give to God and yourself, and you will have no disappointments. Get your power back and build yourself up. Focus on yourself and invest into your growth. Don’t dumb yourself down for anyone. Be unapologetic about your elevation.

Appreciate yourself. Enjoy life.

Adopt stoicism and stay solid.

There’s going to come a day when real leaders and wise minds will be needed because “the blind can’t lead the blind,” so keep a sharp eye.
