    Why are people in western society so fucking ignorant, vacuous, stupid and pathetic in all parts of their worthless lives? Why do people aspire to nothing more than working shitty jobs and then staggering around shopping centres in between staring into fakebook like stupid fucking drones in their spare time? Why do they care only for materistic pursuits and how they are pecieved by their fellow sheep neighbour? Why don't people care about real things?

    Not all of western society is like this though (or most societies), it's just the stereotype that is brought upon from shows like Real Housewives and other crap like that.

    I think a lot of societies suffer from this however (or people as you will).

    In my part of the world they are. Everywhere I look its morons driving unnecessarily large cars because its the thing to do, young men with stupid haircuts wearing pink shorts with tight t-shirts eye fucking themselveswhen they catch their own reflection in a window, people talking about the most braindead and vain subjects and all of this inbetween staring into their iDrone device at Facebook like the worthless waste of flesh and blood that they are. It makes me fucking sick. I swear I am praying for some sort of nuclear holocaust to wipe these oxygen thieving fucks off the face of the earth.

    Congratulations OP. I was 17 once too.

    Anyway, you have your stereotypes wrong. East Asian people, especially the Japanese and Chinese, strive to work stable but useless jobs and the means for their frivolous purchases. Westerners, on the other hand, all want to be movie stars/CEOs and win the lottery and not work for their frivolous purchases. I've never met a Westerner that actually aspired to actually working.

    Amerifag here, lemme break it down for you.

    >>9456452
    >Large Cars
    For dumbasses with small dicks - Large cars suck

    >Pink shorts
    For homosexuals and bros(possible douchebags), though it's amusing to see

    >tight T-shirts
    Ok you got me. Mainly because I like the fact that I fit in a small shirt; makes me still feel young

    >eye fucking themselves when passing a window
    Because looking good is a crime...

    >iDrone device and Facebook
    admittedly the US has pretty much tech'd out on Social Media, which I do find a travesty.


    Truth of the matter is, technology is growing at a faster rate than we are, which makes for a whole lot of impersonal contact. You could be friends with 1000 people on Facebook and not know a single one of them. This also allows for someone to make themselves feel important, as the more people following them means the more attention they get. The media is hailing it too, which is what most people out of country see. It's a bit of self-promotion; if we keep feeding into it, these people will still have jobs. Other people though just want a break from their daily work grind and watch things that make them feel better (sports, sitcoms, etc). Personally I fall into the latter, which I would say is a little better than buying into all the media crap, but still isn't making a difference. I can't say though I care about "real things", mainly because it's a very vague topic (you want me buying into the Kony 2012 Propoganda?), but that's mainly because I'm like most people; trying to keep my well-being intact.

    People in Japan eat cats and dogs, which could be considered weird in America. Its a society. Thats how societies work.

    >Why do people aspire to nothing more than working shitty jobs?

    If no one will pick up your garbage, then you can carry it yourself to the dump.

    >...staggering around shopping centres in between staring into fakebook like stupid fucking drones in their spare time?

    Because why not? Gotta do something in my free time when I'm done picking up your garbage because you can't do it for yourself.

    >Why do they care only for materistic pursuits and how they are pecieved by their fellow sheep neighbour?

    If I pick up garbage, I really don't care what you think because I can go through your garbage and learn terrible things about your sex life.

    >Why don't people care about real things?

    Real is abstract. It could mean physical things, or intangible things that are sincere. "Real" changes from person to person, any country, any society.

    No, I got the point: You're at that angsty stage where you're ready to experience the world and realized you amount to nothing and the world is all hype for a lot of bullshit. The next stage after that is realizing there's absolutely nothing you can do about it because nothing you do will mean anything, and you'll become depressed. (Or, less commonly, that already happened and now you're angry.)

    Anyway, stop being mad and enjoy the fact that you're still at the point in your life where you can at the very least not end up as useless as the people you're butthurt over.

    For various reasons. People don't want to know what is really going on in the world. In some cases, people are more comfortable being ignorant until something big happens right in their face. But by that time, it will be too late.

    op i think you are overlooking a lot and just making a generalization while utilizing the availability heuristic

    for instance, i am from a western country. i don't give a shit about cars, and one of my biggest interests is music. does that count as real??? i don't really care; it is plenty real enough for me. i am interested in my friends, and i am interested in learning. i think you would find most people have quite a lot of "real" interests, because there is no such thing as an interest that is not real
