What are some personally spiteful things you want to do against society because of how much you don't like it's direction? (kbin.social)

For example, I sometimes do want to vote for Trump. Not because I like the man. Not because I find him as a credible leader, in fact, he's a murderer in my eyes by negligence because of his handling of the 2020 COVID Pandemic.

But I want to vote for him because of all of the collective amount of stupidity I see society spiraling into and almost at a stunning level of complacency. We complain more than we do. We nitpick and cherry pick anything from anyone that isn't warranted and make a big deal of it like someone's post on social media.

We continue feeding into the things we cry about being bad. Just so much fucking stupidity at competing levels that challenges the previous record.

And I want to vote for someone who is as destructive as Trump, as a means of just punishment because of this. It's like, society doesn't learn as much as it should, so fuck you, have another 4 years of this asshole and this next set will most likely be the kind where we'll see irreversible damage.

All because of society's obliviousness and idiocy.

The people most impacted by a Trump presidency are going to be minorities who largely didn’t vote for him, not the people you’re mad at. Drooling over collective punishment when presidential elections usually come within a few percentage points each election also isn’t a good look.

Maybe you should talk to someone about why you feel so vindictive towards people for not changing society in the way that you see fit.
