No More Empathy
(P03M)
Hyper-individualism
A new sense of loneliness this generation faces.
Self seeking
“nonchalant”
“npc’s”
People online had started this culture
In reality, degrading someone
Calling someone an npc
like they aren’t human.
Being the “main character” but “doing it for the plot”
As if the plot isn’t people seeking as it is.
Maybe not. But most seek stories to tell other people. Not the “plot” expirence.
Hyper-individualism is another way for apathy.
No sense of caring about anyone but yourself.
Until you’re alone and no one asks for you
or about you anymore.
“Self care”
“Self improving” isn’t learning that everyone should be pushed away or figuring out how to be nonchalant or even learning how to be alone forever.
We are meant for connection not always digital connection.
“If only this work showed a little more mercy to everyone but themselves”.
