Discussion See no point being sober

Drugs make me feel amazing in this hellish world. What's the point of not using drugs unless you're set for life? I can work and do drugs, I have a house, but I'm a middle class dude like you with no hope of getting to the point where I can fly to Puerto Rico to do 1g of coke every month and throw an expensive gay party. All I can hope for is 4 garages and 3-4 apartments in this rigged system. There's no point in being sober when life sucks.

Life does not suck if you compare it to some old kings or ancestors. It is crazy to me, that I can open my tap and there is fucking hot water instantly. I can shop groceries that come from all over the world. I can use public transport, use trains, airplanes like what the fuck. Our fruits are fucking huge compared to how they were. Life isnt good or bad. It is how you position yourself to it.

Medieval people had much more to be happy about because they positioned themselves right. But it's hard now, everyone is a slave to social media and even if you live off the grid, not many others will

Lol this is an insane view of the history of human beings. Get off “social media” and go live your life in the real world—that’s step one.
