As someone who spent 5 years in a similar situation to you, what I am about to say isn't malicious; it is reality from my experience and is the key to solving the issue for yourself.
They do not care about you and never will.
I am leaving this country that I served in a war for because they do not care and they never will. I am homeless and I have money; plenty to live like people do here. I don't because it is disgusting. I don't because I am not funding people's lifestyle where they buy nonsense like this while people rot and starve.
So I am going somewhere else where people haven't lost touch with reality like they have here. I would recommend any sane people do the same ASAP because no one here is going to change. It is the better option than being angry all the time and living in their dystopia.
What kind of place is that? I've been to many places around the world and around North America and they're all functionally similar, if zooming out.
I agree and I know. Thank you fro an honesty many more people need to hear.
We do not need to and cannot change what they've built. But what is built is rife with cracks and canyons, and they do not have the legs to carry themselves into those depths.
Thanks for your service. I served as well and made the jump to a new country as well. My mental health has improved greatly. I hope you find some sanity as well.
I am all good with my situation, but I know many people who have it worse than me with not even a car to live in, so when I see opulence like this for the novelty of it I wonder where human compassion has gone.
And to make like these things are doing anything for the environment is just green washing. I have solar power that cost me $700 in total that powers everything I need. My sleeping bag is my heater and my reflective tarps are my AC. I am sure my carbon foot print in minuscule compare to anyone who could afford a Jupe.
