what if i just like staring at shit from afar

Things that might depress me are violence, theft, disease... Basically, people suffering through no fault of their own.

That's not what we see on a place like Reddit. While the creatures that lurk within the depths of r/buttcoin or r/btc are no doubt miserable, it's an entirely self-inflicted form of misery. It's not a question of intelligence, or access to information, or anything other than outright stubbornness to update one's own worldview when the thing you declared dead 17 times just made a fresh ATH. That's comedy.

Maybe that's just my sense of humor? I like to make fun of people, and sometimes we take ourselves too seriously. SN for example is full of complete schizos, but I love them all the same. I'm probably one of them, after all.
