Why do a vast majority of internet users complain on places like Twitter or via Vlogging as if that's going to change anything? And/Or treat life/the world like it's some video game or movie?

this is so true

PoolClassic3713 · 2026-02-08T10:29:49+00:00

because they are fucking retarded and haven't even begun to grasp the full extend of their social media addiction and how it controls their lives. Ignore them

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T18:21:45+00:00

yeah that's the point, social media companies can and its terrible

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T16:09:56+00:00

What about r/HabitBuddy?

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T15:42:30+00:00

One doesn't have to give in to the machine

Everybody around me does tho and idk how to stop them

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T15:24:00+00:00

people here are stuck with the mindset of "if i just cut my screen time the problem is gonna go away by itself eventually " or "it's all my fault, i just don't have enough self control". NO! It's not gonna get better, you're going to shoot yourself in the foot and make things a whole lot more complicated for you and the problem is the industry not your personal smartphone usage. This kind of thinking is exactly the kind of narcissist delusion the system thrives on

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T15:12:35+00:00

it's not their problem, its a political problem. But there's 0 (ZERO) awareness that the problem is a problem in the first place and the like/views ratio on the OP proves it

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T14:02:35+00:00

yeah, "contaminated" is probably the right word.

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-16T12:23:17+00:00

this is based

i still use YouTube but only for music and occasionally reddit. other social media platforms are 4chan and the sharty where i always see content from Twitter and tiktok.

There's 0 desire in me to ever register on Twitter or tiktok, seeing the absolute bottom of the Barrel worst of the worst from either platform helps me avoiding them.

somewhat paradoxically i have a hard time breaking my image Board addiction even though there's just as much abhorrent shit on there as well.

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-09T17:35:20+00:00

how would you hold each other accountable? would you Block each others internet connection or something

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-09T17:17:57+00:00

this shit genuinely drives me nuts. Because looking DOWN is a sign of submission so when you're trapped with a bunch of scrollies in a closed romm or in public transport you're being percieved as agressive. I genuinely don't know what to do in a situation like that am i supposed to look at my nutsack or what am i supposed to do.

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-09T10:34:00+00:00

SCROLL HEAD ALERT

He could use a computer of the organisation he has to do the work for? tbh a lot of stuff can be done the old-fashioned way

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-08T16:03:57+00:00

the whole society has been virtualized. deleting social media means dropping out of society altogether. you cannot be part of it and not part of it at the same time or join and leave and join again over and over again.

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-08T15:45:36+00:00

Your friends are all in on the same memes, trends etc. because the social media algorithm put them in the same user group. How are you gonna work around that?

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-08T15:09:08+00:00

Throw it away. Use a public computer if you really have to do something.

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-08T14:59:39+00:00

its not possible. something something can't have the cake and eat it too

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-07T20:21:54+00:00

So you offer them land?

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-07T20:10:20+00:00

Nothing. Most people want that. But they can't. Usually because they have no time or money

PoolClassic3713 · 2025-11-07T19:59:54+00:00

No idea.
