climate change and the threat of nuclear war

Euphoric fedorabeards who think they're owed a girlfriend just because they hold doors for them, buy them drinks, etc, and then throw public tantrums when they get rejected. Bonus points if they make dozens of shitty YouTube rants afterwards, and extra bonus points if they do this in their 20's.

Giving all men a bad name and a huge part of why feminism has gone from being a strong somewhat necessary movement movement, to a clusterfuck where girls announce that they're in lesbian relationships with their friends.

intellectual idiocy

people don't care to hear anyone's opinion anymore, if you support trump you're a trumpanzee, and nothing you say matters anymore, if you're a liberal then you're an sjw and nothing you say matters anymore, people can't seperate people from their political ideologies.

this keeps leading into trends where something happens, and both sides relentlessly attack each other. even when people of opposing views do make good points, someone else will chime in and crowds form and arguments begin again as to who is right in whatever instance

nobody cares to seperate people from what they say anymore, it's like people bringing up shit @fenderbender321 has said, they don't care about any point he may have now, they only care that he said something they don't agree with or they think is stupid. (e.g why can't people have sex with horses)

we live in a world now where if you say anything that even goes against the masses, you'll have it held over your head for life, and that's troubling because someone may very well have the cure for cancer but if they said sex with horses should be legal, no one will pay them any mind and think them a fool, because all people care about is shaming someone for an opinion they may have.

it's also like admiral's fanclub, not people that defend him, but people who literally derail topics saying he's gonna meltdown or how will he react to this, or how admiral is racist; they don't care to intelligently discuss what he says, they just care to keep critiquing him. I feel like these people that latch onto those kinds of things are the weak willed people who dislike themselves, and feel a need to bully others for having differing opinions

as to why i think this is the worst thing happening, as social media becomes more and more mainstream, and as technology advances, we'll reach a point that if trends continue as they are, you must be verified and linked up on anything you choose to use as a platform. imagine now, your twitter, facebook, etc have a mandatory link to forums you might use like gamefaqs, forums on official sites like blizzard, bodybuilding sites, reddit etc and with one click people can see who you are, people can see what you say, where you visit.

in this technological world where everything is based off of social media and memes, imagine if all it took was a small group of people who made fun of something you said to go even slightly viral (again @fenderbender321 you're the first person I think of because of how i've seen people derail topics you post in, proving what i'm saying tbh otherwise i wouldn't remember your name from seeing it so often) and suddenly no matter what you do, where you go, you're a joke/loser/idiot for asking a simple question that others misconstrued on purpose.

this attitude needs to stop where everyone NEEDS to be right, or that if someone says "hey look at these crime statistics in relation to what is going on, and it doesn't make sense why this movement is doing this!" they aren't simply labelled a racist for QUESTIONING something i know people will try to attack me for that last part, and i'm not saying i agree or disagree with that. it's all based on the context of it being brought up, is all i'll say

and one last point; non issues. people care more about microtransactions in video games than they do about improving the conditions of the world. maybe because something like that feels like something people can do, but no one realizes with enough motivation they CAN make a difference in whatever they feel they need to.

Depends on where you live. If you live in America then someone tweeting out a racist meme is the worst of your problems. If you live in Ethiopia then living past 30 is going to be a major concern.

Big government / statism. That covers a lot including aggressive foreign policy with its predictable blowback, government debt, welfare that holds back the native poor while serving as a honeypot to unskilled foreigners, etc.

Just like previous generations learned that slavery is immoral and barbaric (whether the slave owners were white, Arab or black Africans) hopefully future generations learn from mistakes made by people who support debt financed big government. If you want big government today, pay for it today. If thats not politically feasible, then suck it up and move on.
