I am not joking when I say that literally every single thing I advocate for instantly becomes unpopular in the months following me adopting that position.

I have more examples than this, even. At this point I am convinced I could become an anti-nazi activist and within 6 months, all of society would be heiling Hitler.

Why is this? Is this genuinely some kind of cosmic curse against me and everything I believe? Or is there a logical explanation?

Maybe you're just a contrarian.

Do it, please.

>>33689331 (OP)
you dont actually believe in anything
grow a fucking spine

There's two algorithms feeding the entire internet
You're on the losing side algorithm.
Most everyone else has been on the winning side algorithm their entire lives.
Find that one youtube video where they explain how everyone's political identity shifts line up perfectly with what the algorithm is rabbitholing at various times.

>2010-2014 be liberal who believes in Obama out of the need for human rights and equality and fairness to those in need.
>2015-now notices how full of shit I was as liberals are fucked up in the end in extreme behavior. Notices how ironically douchey liberals get and how asshole they can be. Now am gonna vote for a right winged president from now on. May have voted for Kamala and Bernie, but I see conservatives more respectful to autistic people than liberals. Apart from a few select behaviors liberals have like the need for equal rights, I do not like most of them.

>>33689331 (OP)
Can you convert to Islam please

>>33689331 (OP)
Because you are a retarded.
Are any of these labels you apply to yourself based on any sort of principles or values you hold or are you just desperate to fit in somewhere?

>>33689331 (OP)
>Why is this?
because you are childish. A retard. No one cares about you as much as you believe. You think having political beliefs automatically equate to change in the world- it doesn't. You have become just another NPC. A tryhard at that. At least leftists in the past actually attempted action. You aren't important at all in the world to warrant caring too much about your position. It's time to grow up. How about take care of your immediate family who is still suffering to this very moment? Useless sack of shit.

kek, spbp

>>33689331 (OP)
>Or is there a logical explanation?
Yes. You are a contrarian that cares about social perception. Truly a disgusting combo. To put it simply you have no integrity you simply want to be viewed as "correct" and "winning". This is obviously warped and will result in you being the political equivalent of trash swept aside by the wind. Hope this helps.

It doesn't matter what you believe in if all you do is compare yourself to others.
Most people don't drive change, all they are is internet warriors. They take sides for the sake of taking sides. You think these people gave a fuck about Palestinians or Israelis up until their favorite idols decided to take a side? More importantly, do you think they're worth fucking anything? Instead of worrying about their pressing personal issues, it makes them oh so mad that you insulted people they don't really know, they won't meet and are lying to them all the fucking time.
Grow the fuck up and take care of your own business before you think of changing the world somehow.

>>33689331 (OP)
Don't talk politics with people

>>33689331 (OP)
You're a contrarian

>>33689331 (OP)
You are a contrarian, but subconsciously. As soon as something becomes popular you get disillusioned with it and change positions. It's probably subconscious, so you're not even aware that this is the reason.
But the average person is retarded, and they always have retarded political opinions (no matter where they stand on the political spectrum), so this is probably a good instinct to have actually.

>>33689331 (OP)
You lack serious convictions that arise from strong moral values based on a foundation of sincere and well-developed intellectual arguments. I had the same problem when I was younger, leading to me being brainwashed into leftism and college, but when I put in the work to develop my worldview with serious effort I became ultra right-wing.

>>33692666
So you went from retarded to mentally challenged? Cool.

>>33692697
>both sides... LE BAD

>>33689331 (OP)
You don't believe in anything when you go from leftist woke liberal communist to right wing anti-woke capitalist in the span of 4 years and then circle back again, and then rinse and repeat, especially when you base it on social media posts.

>>33692697
No. I went from being decently well raised, to a brainwashed retard, to a fully realized human being. I understand you are a brainwashed dipshit yourself, and seeing someone who broke their chains upsets your programming, but you must understand that your projection is off-putting.

>>33692666
>. I had the same problem when I was younger, leading to me being brainwashed into leftism and college,
how are you being brainwashed as a 20 year lol lmao

>>33692731
>>33692666
>brainwashed

you weren't brainwashed you're just a dipshit with no real beliefs also like OP. Watch as you switch side in another 4 years.

>>33692753
Most people switch sides once. More than that is a red flag.

>>33692666
>I'm not brainwashed anymore!
>far right
come on nigga

>>33692761
most people absolutely do not switch worldviews

>>33692764
As if the far right doesn't have things to offer to anyone?

>>33692769
What about all the people that grew up religious and are now atheist? What about those that grew up conservative and are now liberal? What about the zoomers that grew up liberal and are now far right?

>>33692666
lol

>haha yeah I had crazy days during my youth in college as a 20 year old Leftist Socialist Woke Youth.
>I supported Universal Healthcare, Paternal Leave, Maternal Leave, Unions, Worker's Rights, Affordable Education, Clean Energy

>but now that I am a wise old 25 year old Gen X old Boomer who is very old and wise, I think the complete opposite on every single issue.
>Workers should be slaves with no rights and the environment should be turned into a dumping ground for plastic waste and all of our tax money should go to Israel. Mostly because I saw a rainbow flag one time.

>>33692855
>YOU WILL support infinity immigration
>YOU WILL give all of your money to poor foreigners
>YOU WILL troon your kids, and you will like it!
>Oh, me? I just want le healthcare!!!

>>33692777
>grew up religious

that's understandable, because as a child you have no real beliefs of your own you're just riding your parents' coattails. Same if you grew up in a liberal household or a conservative household.

As a teenage your form your own ideals and beliefs.

But then threads like these are filled with retards claiming to have been brainwashed when they were 23 year old.

>>33692855
>leftist
>supporting workers
Lmfao

The left:
>we need a living wage! Wages are too low!
>rent and housing is too high and unaffordable!

Also the left:
>we need to bring in millions of immigrants to do work for tiny wages!
>to oppose this is racist
>huh? Basic economics? Supply and demand?
>what is that?

Leftists vote against their own interests

>>33692855

I look like this and say this

>>33692865
>>33692896
and right wingers sent all the manufacturing jobs to China 40 years ago, no need to bring in foreigners to steal our jobs when we just send the jobs to the foreigners' homeland, and instead of sending money to poor foreigners we're told we need to send money to Israel because there are still a few 8 year old kids with rocks in their hands that need to be exploded.

Anyways I'm actually a cool guy nihilist who hasn't voted since 2008 exactly because wokeshit started to take over the left. I still prefer the woke left over the insane right though. Vote harder next time.

>>33692925
You know NOTHING of the right wing if you think chuds have any sort of attachment to Reagan.

>>33692945
I never mentioned Reagan

>>33692953
Who was the leader of the GOP 40 years ago anon?

>>33692966
It wasn't just America that was happy to give away all the manufacturing jobs to third world countries.

And anyways why would they have attachment to someone who was president 20 years before they were born and died when they were still breastfeeding?

>>33692945
>Reagan was WOKE and a COMMUNIST actually, checkmate

>>33693006
>It wasn't just America that was happy to give away all the manufacturing jobs to third world countries
First off get rid of this ridiculous notion that anyone really cares about "manufacturing jobs" lol. If we could onshore manufacturing but it'd be 100% automated that would be ideal. And as for your point, America runs the world. Cry about it.
>And anyways why would they have attachment to someone who was president 20 years before they were born
Chuds seem to like Hitler a lot.

>>33693024
>If we could onshore manufacturing but it'd be 100% automated that would be ideal
Oh no you're one of those UBI sci-fi people who thinks that AI will give everyone free money.

>>33693047
Are you denying the fact that technology increases productivity?

>>33693050
>technology increases productivity
That's not the point at all.

Why did we give away all those manufacturing jobs to the third world?

Why are all those billionaire CEOs so keen in importing a billion indians and also replacing everything and everyone with AI?

Who benefits from this "productivity?"

You really think Musk and Bezos are gonna team up to give everyone infinite free money once everyone is out of a job? Even the youtubers and onlyfans camwhores? That's the last industry in America.

>>33693076
It seems you're arguing against a position I didn't take. The problem isn't that we don't have enough jobs, it's that we imported the manufacturing itself to the third world.
TLDR replacing people with Indians is bad, replacing people with AI is good (if it works well).

So i've seen this girl on the first school day during an assembly, thought she looked pretty and charming (way out of my league but people say otherwise) So i asked a mutual friend to ask her socials, at first she said no but then added me. She seems bad at small talk, 14 and never had a bf before. (which i could kinda not believe cause damn she is pretty) Tho she seems kinda shy, types like it's an essay. I'm speaking full correct grammar sentences and i'm kinda puzzled on how to address her since i'm kind off a social bloke and we don't have a lot in common. genuinely wondering what i could do to better the convo's


Also i don't think 4chans the best app to ask but i don't have much more
