Far-right world Horror
Far-right world Horror
Lately, I've been having a hard time getting doing my hobbies because I've doom-scrolled to bad news, and devastating facts related to the Right (wingers), and a religious majority: Muslims.
I am not going to say EVERYTHING bad I have learned related to the majority of Muslim countries, but I'll say these two: Queers, and Apostates (of Islam), face very harsh stigma, and way-too-often get killed by Zealots. It has been like that for over 40 years.
I've also learned that the Right has gotten more power in some countries like Italy.
I have failed to find ANY positive information, and news about these topics, and because of that I am very worried that the world will become a Right-wing dystopia, and that the problems I have mentioned will never change for the better.
I'm trying to stay calm and hopeful about this, but I feel insecure about things getting better, and I keep stressing about it. I don't know how to help myself right now.
EDIT: forgot to mention that many people (online at least) are being pessimistic about it, which isn't helping me.

I do this, too! For the very same reason.
My solution: basically hedonism.
These right wing fools want to go to war and kill people over trivial bullshit like who people love and what books kids read. And no one with real political or social power is doing a damn thing about it. All thy environmental problems, including climate change, I suspect will only make it worse.
So fuck it. Live, laugh, and love now.

But you don't know that. History can't be (accurately) predicted.
So fuck it. Live, laugh, and love now.
Isn't that an internet meme? Perhaps it's better to say "enjoy your life now" or something like that.
So fuck it. Live, laugh, and love now.
hell yeah!
I suspect will only make it worse.
Wow, thanks for making me feel better :/

If it makes you feel any better, significant percentages of young Muslims are leaving the faith, and I'd expect this trend to accelerate and continue. Worldwide people are moving away from religion and Islam is no exception. In fact I expect there are many more nonbelievers in the closet due to the harsh penalties for being an apostate, (traditionally leaving Islam carries the death penalty.) While Islam will continue to grow for a while because of high fertility rates and indoctrination I believe the writing is on the wall for all religions.
