Looking back at this post I think there are contentions that I would agree with, but there are some things that I think I was just blatently wrong on based on my findings and time in college.

Things I am adament still: 
The government is untrustworthy and should have no part dictating specifics on 
Government sits on a pedestal of authority, only to work with corporations themselves and them claiming themselves to be the sole masterminds of equity
This is still true 100% and I stand by this more than ever. The amount of wasteful spending that government does to say it's benefiting citizens is deplorable and remains deplorable. Government work for the interest of themselves, in a position where they are supposed to work for the people. It is frankily pretty sickening to see such actions being involved. The motivation for government is to benefit yourself and receive backdoor funds from political groups so you can take a side. It is still bullshit and government should have a minimal say in a persons lives, especially a national government

Things I would change / be more recultant on:
The trust of corporations
corporations are not entitled to be "righteous."
I would probably disagree with this setement I have on corporations aren't entitled to be righteous. I think that I would obvious agree with the statement, I think having coprorations control aspect of your life do no good either. Corporations ultimate goal is to: make money. They can help consumers, obviously, but they are looking to draw the most out and corporations that are deregulated to the extent I described they should be can easily create monopolies and rapidly increase inflation. Corporations can act for their people, but have the ultimate objective to generate income?

So where do I stand?
Trust no one. Live your life. Act for yourself. Do what's beneficial to you. At the end of the day focusing on governments and companies and trying to be an advocate for either is performance and a waste of time. It takes major time and major campaigning to make a drastic change. You invest all your time into doing that just to barely have an impact in your life? The solutions to corporations up-charging? Go to a cheaper store and buy the same product. Develop yourself. That's whats important at the end of the day

I dont believe that the needs of many outweigh the needs of few, in the same way I dont believe that 60% of people have right to take everything from remaining 40%.

The government will never work for people, because government works to control people.

I have no real interest in politics. Anyone who casts a vote on election day is just wasting his time.

The people's brains have degraded and they will never be liberated from misery because they are the cause of misery and evil.

Anyone hoping for a better world in next 60 years will be disappointed.

In order for there to be a better world, people need to be smart and good. But people are retarded and evil.

There cannot be a good world made out of retards and the wicked.

Corporations for the most part have to follow the culture and mandates of the government. If the government tells them that hating white people is the official policy, then corporations will start removing whites from their commercials knowing customers will follow what the government tells them to do. Cooperating with the government is how they make the most profit, even if it means censoring a bunch of people and otherizing whole groups.

You saw how fast companies dropped DEI as soon as it was banned in government...

For better or worse, our society has outsourced morality to the government in place of religion. It's a different kind of Church. And corporations cater to whatever morality is dictated by the government for that day.

Its great that government decides what is right and sheep people just follow what government tells them. Really, they deserve whatever government does to them.

Humans will never achieve ultimate good due to will to want more. Human greed will always be a factor. I think you are looking at things from a more pessismistic lense, but I don't think you are wrong. Ultimately it is important because on ensuring that you prioritize your own self needs before others. Ultimately, you will just be dissapointed trying to appeal to others because humans will likely dissapoint you due to their nature. I hold hope that the world CAN be better in 60 years, but to say I will be shocked if it isn't would be a lie and I've accepted that.

Maximize your life. Pursue a hobby. Work a job. Generate revenue to see things around the world. Live without fear. Don't look to others for validation for your achievements. Prioritize self validation. From there you can form relationships with others.

It is truly sad to see how society has propped up government as this god and end all be only when He is the end all be all. They work to appease their mortals in their party, versus the ultimate judge and juror when the lights close. Some people find solice in that, but I just can't.

Great. More copy pasted life advice I heard 10000 times.

None of those are point of life. Point of life is to do whatever you want until you die or get killed.

Reads like a chapter from Ayn Rand.

Robert Burns lamented the fact that humans are prone to regret the past and worry about the future. Finding a purpose in society helps to eliminate both of these human foibles.

Sorry, we were doing poetry this hour :)

How when society shapes the past and the future of its citizens?

No, I prefer doing what I want, because the only other option is to not do what I want, and I dont want that.

Now, maybe the rest of people want to be brainless worker bees for the system. Thats their choice. However, I dont belong to any society, as I dont want to.

I will never fit into society, because to do that, I would have to degrade to society's level, which is impossible in my case.
