between lack of healthcare, and everything sucking so pedophiles can live like gods.

yhea, the system literally doesn't want you to live.

that being said, I've been there, multiple times, no idea how I'm alive, but I am. surviving this madness is an act of resistance.

Except to stay alive you have to keep the man happy. You continuing to exist under this system empowers the system.

If I had to guess, social media and less of a safety net in society for those unfortunate.
