How do you live happily when you are surrounded by crazy or brainwashed people?

[fanban]

You realize putting up with them costs more time and energy than just focusing on what actually matters to you.

I totally agree

I think usually the best thing is just to mind your own business and try not to pay attention.

Everybody everywhere is brainwashed in one direction or another.

Some people try to understand and escape the system, or at least don't try to stop you.

However, 95% prefer to believe and keep on running on the trap, and try to bring you in.

Enjoy family and friends, but be wisely on who to pay attention for what.

Same as you don't seek for medical advice from your plumber... Don't seek for finance, democracy, [insert word] from [random].

Be free! Be safe!

People who think democracy works
People who think Russia is evil but US or EU is good
People who think a government can be trustworthy
People who think god exists
People who worship women or hate men
People who have no capacity for logic
People who are puppets of various mini religions aka causes
People who like marvel movies

They are everywhere

This has been the case for 1000s of years, so there must be some books written on this subject of living happily while surrounded by s**t. Anyone knows any?

In today’s world, you just learn to live with it. There are more and more crazy people out there, and you see things happening that you never thought were even possible, just look at what’s going on in the U.S. And then you’ve got all these new movements popping up, people identifying in all sorts of ways. It’s like a whole generation of kids who were never taught how the world actually works because they grew up with an iPhone glued to their face.

The world’s gone nuts, and it’s only getting worse.

imagine a man in a petting zoo

"Lama you fool, stop spitting in peoples faces, if you were kinder they would be more willing to feed and house you! ungrateful creature!"
"Pig, you idiot, some riling around in filth you will catch diseases and why do you eat any slop given to you? have you no self respect!"
"Goat, you fuckhead, if you were just to stop eating anything you see you could be a household pet! millions would house and feed you! why do you self sabotage?"

this man see's himself as a genius, he's solved all the problems these animals have, they should be smart and follow his advice.
everyone else sees this man and thinks "why's this retard talking to a goat?"
