There was a clip of the praguer U guy talking about a kindergarten poster with the words “the world is a better place because you are in it” and he was shitting on it and then it took a turn and he goes “my dad never said a thing like that to me [and I turned out fine]” and I just felt so terrible for him, daddy issues will turn you into a piece of shit.
I cannot for the life of me understand how people can listen to that and not realize how anti-human that entire worldview is. I'm not even asking for these people to turn around and become communists, just some mild reflection on how their political project is centered around tearing other people down rather than compassion and helping others. I can't help but think that it must slowly poison your soul, for lack of a better term, to view the world in such a way.
Funny how everyone who says they turned out fine are all depraved misanthropic child abusers
