Does anyone know?

Reached mid-thirties, I’m still having no idea what the *** is going on, the longer I live, the less everything around me makes sense (and I don’t think it’s me that changes that much…).
Watching what’s going on in the US for instance, just results me in shaking my head in disbelief, without having any idea what’s going on…

Trust me, you don’t wanna know what’s going on.

The goal is not knowing what’s going on, it is not caring about any of it

Kurt Vonnegut said that one of the scariest things that every happened to him was the day he looked around and realized people he’d gone to high school with were running the world.

If you invest a lot in to learning as much as possible when younger, then by like late 20s you can get a decent sense of things. But even then it’s a tiny percentage of everything.

My friend mentioned to me that there are two types of cinnamon.
I happened to pass a spice stall at a local shopping center and started chatting about cinnamon. The guy behind the counter knew quite a bit, but pointed out that he wasn’t an expert.
The aren’t just millions of books you’ll never read, there are millions of books you will never haver any idea that they exist.

I mean, I think the point of the post is generally how to live in the world. Of course there are almost infinite obscure facts and skills, but I get your point.

If true, then that which will happen to me will change.

We’re entering irrational times, ones that you can only navigate with your heart.

Well, shit, I’m terrible at matters of the heart.

Historically? Mid-20s when you enter the work force and start wondering why groceries are so expensive. And then you lose your mind and get angry that life was so much better when you were 10 and not paying attention to that.

Is this a question no-marxists ask themselves?

Take a lesson from Mao.
The true revolutionary hides himself among the masses. Only adventurists and posers boast of being Marxists.
HikingVet@lemmy.ca 9 hours ago
Like marxists have a great grasp on reality themselves.
