I would never have admitted it back then but a lot of what I posted came from feeling frustrated about my own lack of progress. Not like I was angry at the world and needed someone to blame, just really bored because I was broke and any kind of story to explain why I couldn't find a job or how things would change soon was interesting. reddit and most mainstream media wanted me to believe that the economy was doing great and the status quo should continue and let science handle everything, just wallow in nostalgia and white guilt. /pol/ said the world was illegitimate and the happening would change everything soon, or with the iron pill that I could adjust my daily routine and meet with deep primal knowledge of my ancestors or something.

Bit cliche but after the last two dismal presidencies the Obama days ironically almost seem like a blissful golden age. At least people tried to be carefree and self-improvement still seemed meaningful, I guess.
