Someone is truly in here going 
The hundreds of people gunned down daily is really a small percentage of the population so it’s all just scaremongering. Several dozen people are upvoting it. I think I’m done with hexbear for a bit. Thanks for the fun posts, everyone
Being a child is criminalized. And the children are suffering. The point of childhood anymore doesn’t seem to enjoy some innocence and learn life lessons and make mistakes in a loving or caring environment where you’re shielded from most of the consequences. The purpose of childhood is to mold you into an ideal member of the proletariat. And to never ever misbehave, because the Eye in the Sky (whether that’s your parents or the police state) is always watching and you’d better get used to it.
I’ve talked about the atrocious state of childrens’ rights in this country, and had some really good discussion here about it. It’s only getting worse. Don’t walk or bike home from school, wait for your parent to come get you in an SUV. Don’t go skateboarding, you hooligan. Don’t hang out with friends or other kids in the neighborhood with only the admonition of being back before dark. Don’t drink a beer, even as an adult- you’ll go to jail. Don’t host a party, you’ll go to jail. Don’t have awkward teenage sex. Don’t go hang out downtown or explore the woods, you’ll be raped and abducted and sold into slavery! Just stay home, on your phone where it’s safe.
I fucking hate this. This shit honestly makes me despair more than climate change. I’m not sure why that is, obviously what we’re doing to the climate could well spell the end of human civilization. I think I’m just really upset at this very clear, yet less dramatic impact of living in a fascist society. Being a child is criminalized.
Having that sort of childhood with parents that watched my every move and were control freaks coupled with I think mental health issues that never went diagnosed or acknowledged has put me into this position at nearly 30 where I don’t even know what it means to grow up anymore. I just this year experienced being high and drunk, never had sex, don’t go out any, no friends I see in person. But I don’t know if the voice in my head telling me I need to grow up is right or if I’m just being too hard on myself or if I just get anxious whenever I’m convinced I’m not sufficiently anxious enough already.
Congrats on the drugs comrade
Pretty good stuff. I need people to do it with and not just get high alone posting though.
I think the voice in your head is being too hard on yourself because it’s not materially actionable, and any it is materially actionable is probably the root cause for why you’re thinking that.
I doubt you need to “grow up”, you probably just want to socialize or something and your brain associates that with “growing up” because we think being lonely is our fault because we live in Hell
