It is very nice of you to be so concerned about these folks' inner lives and psychological well being! Are you going to pay their rent, and feed them too?

- svachalek 4y agoHonestly I don't sympathize with either of these sentiments. If the only work people can find is by making the world a miserable place, perhaps we have too many people.
- p0pcult 4y ago1. If "bullshit motivational quotes, carefully constructed outrage takes, or purportedly expert content about topics [the author] knows nothing about" makes your world a miserable place, you are part of the globally privileged. Unplug and get some fresh air, ffs. 2. Lots of people like that stuff. Who are you, and who are OP to decide what content gets produced and consumed? The morality police? 3. The irony of complaining about that stuff on a site dedicated to the industry that platforms that kind of stuff is just astounding. Perhaps the real problem is not the content, but the medium that allows its mass dissemination? 4. The material misery that would be created by shifting entire industries out of work (if even for a "few" years to who-knows-how-long) would be measurably greater than the micro-miseries of the kinds of things OP seems to complain about.
