Title: OK Doomer
Here’s a sexy Doomsday Mix for all you beautiful anarchist preppers out there.
The name for this mix was obviously borrowed from the fantastic OK Doomer substack written by Jessica Wildfire, that you absolutely should read. Imho.
Here’s what she recently wrote:
Right now, billionaires and politicians are running our society. They champion the most toxic ideologies, including this brand of positivity. It worked well for them in terms of extracting wealth and building vast financial empires, but look at their personal lives. They’re divorced. They’re estranged from their children. Some of them even talk about how lonely they are.
They’re not happy.
That’s not really comforting to hear, either. They’re confessing to us. They spent their lives torturing their employees and destroying everything around them. In the end, they’re just as miserable as everyone else.
They just hide behind fancier smiles. They console themselves the same way their customer base does, buying things. They just do it on an epic scale. They build super yachts and rocket ships to amuse themselves.
They hire girlfriends.
It’s all they know.
This toxic positivity isn’t just irritating. It doesn’t just make us miserable as individuals. It has hampered us on every level. It blocks political progress. It sabotages public health. It nurtures wealth gaps and inequality. It has done nothing for us but create a class system full of sick, angry, broke and broken trolls who go around talking about what good listeners they are, while abusing their own families and scapegoating the homeless.
It’s a horrible way to live.
It’s a horrible way to run a society, and it’s all starting to fall apart. We can do better. With whatever time the human race has left, we can at least get better at dealing with dark emotions instead of running away from them.
We have to.
There’s not much else to say.
So there it is, another pieceocast.
I hope you enjoy it.
