[green, speaking, looking smug]
Okay, hear me out, here's the plan…
We go full apathy, basically we let capitalism fully spiral out into fascism. Once it's done, people will rise up and the system will collapse under its own weight. From its ashes, with our help, a better society will rise. This is how we win.
[we now see that green is tied up in front of a bleak wall, along with a group of other people, being aimed at by a firing squad of characters in fascist uniforms]
[green, smiling] OK?
[blue, pissed] Dude…
What if the propaganda is looking at human behavior and realizing we’re too stupid to live
I think you're bordering extremely close to eco fascism and need to do some self reflection on what you actually value. Are you a fascist?

I don’t advocate for genocide to save the planet. The planet will do that quite nicely on its own. Plus I think humans will screw it up like everything else.
While you're wining like a little bitch some of us are fighting. Some of us have people who care about that we don't want to suffer.
Get back to us when you're ready to do more that piss and moan about how we are all fucked. Until then get the fuck out of the way.
Blah blah blah blah
And it’s spelled “whining”
And all you can do is correct spelling. Pathetic.
What’s pathetic is thinking anything you do will prevent anything.
Useless black pilled duche says what?
I’m not surprised you don’t understand because you still can’t spell
Lol keep replying, that hole can only get deeper!
I can’t believe you’ve been waiting three days to say that.
Nah man, just happened to check in after a couple days. I don't sit on my phone all day, I check in when I feel like it.
Keep trying, maybe one of these will be a real banger!
Speak for yourself. I'm just stupid enough to live.
Go do real shit in the real world. Go volunteer, pick up trash, organize with others and seek out other helpers.
Doing shit in the real world and watching the real world fail to reverse its decline is a big reason I think we’re too stupid to live.
But If you want to try to bail the Titanic with a Dixie cup I’m not gonna yuck your yum.
I mean it beats being a defeatist, perpetually online and depressed little doomer, makes your immediate surrounding community a little better and you meet and hang out with cool, good people.
Shit sucks, sure. Go do something about it instead of whining then.
Futile actions and being around even more of a species I don’t want to be a part of will make me more defeatist and misanthropic.
How do you think I got this way?
Go find a local food bank and help out for a couple hours.
Been there. Done that. Didn’t help. Actually made me feel worse.
Alright good luck with everything then.
The propaganda is the series of influences that led you to believe it's some natural epiphany you had for yourself and not an opinion shaped by those influences.
Plenty of people look at the same exact human behavior you do and come to positive conclusions. You are a product of your influences, and some of those influences come in the form of propaganda encouraging you to be apathetic and allow those sociopaths tearing us apart to thrive.
If they’re seeing the same behavior and thinking of it positively then humans are even worse than I imagined.
Then I think you're the one too stupid to live
