The world is a profit driven dystopia that thrives off the relentless exploitation and dehumanization of men/women everywhere. How do you manage to live your life in accordance with that?

It's sort of a moot question for me personally, given the fact that I find myself wholly/fully incompatible with life from top to bottom. The fact that the world is the way that it is really only manages to compound the severity of my original, and otherwise totally insoluble, predicament.

Unlike 99% of the rest of the human population, who'd massively benefit from major reforms to the way things happen to be, there's nothing that can undo a lifetime of stagnancy and isolation. I'd still carry the memory of having wasted my life up until now, and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to reconcile myself with that. In my case, 15+ years of isolation has left me irrecoverably alienated from other people, and all that's left is a dehumanized husk. The fact that I still somehow have decent(ish) social skills is frankly astounding to me.

Hell, I wish my biggest problems were that I couldn't afford rent, or that housing prices are out of control. As it is, the crushing malaise that informs the vast majority of people's stress/unhappiness in the modern day could otherwise be solved simply through a better allocation of public resources. A few strokes of a pen, and boom. No more sad/unhappy people, such to the extent that whatever remained would be statistically irrelevant. As for the leftovers, such as myself, I guess you could always get a bulldozer to plow us into a open gorge, or something like that.
