Everything seems so fucked

It seems like, people are denying reality on purpose. My brother wants to buy a house, which will be paid in 30 years or so. I ask him: "You know, that the world is on the edge of total collapse, either through climate change or nuclear war? And you are still planning your life, like nothing is happening?"
Then he reacts insulted and ignores my question.

TBF possession is 9/10ths of the law, if he's 10 years into a mortgage and the global economy collapses the bank's hardly gonna come looking for the house are they?
Samuel Adams
Good post and I support what you say. Although, my optimism is not as bright as yours. I have the feeling, that a genuine marxist movement will not arise in the next years. I don't want to sound defeatist and discourage other people here, but we're really fucked…

If you're not actively engaged in politics IRL you have zero right to complain.

Trust in the theory and it'll all work out.

We are really, tbh too. I know how it feels to be sometimes be defeatist. Plus, my dive into the left has actually made me more depressed! This optimism remains for a short time, then I read some news and read what other comrades have to say online, then back to defeatism, on top of that I am extremely alienated too, like maybe many of us.
In my country, hard-right and even fascism is on the rise, we actually have in power a far-right politician who gained up ranks in his party speaking against other religions and is alleged to be a part of causing some riots which lead to deaths of minorities.
Most 'communist' parties here are chin-deep in revisionism and chauvinism. And trust me, I live in a 'third-world' country and objective conditions exist. The only revolutionary party seems to be on back foot.
Plus, the fact I am currently not able to much both individually and collectively acts as a fuel for more defeatism, for all of us really.
Relevant pics, not oc, found on this board, hits close to home.

Isaiah Sullivan
would you say it's a bad idea for the 18 year old dzoomer to go to university?
would it even matter?

Things will always get slowly worse, since capitalism as a productive force is becoming obsolete, but the neoliberals' absolute ideological hegemony is starting to wane, presumably because the current young adult generation wasn't indoctrinated with Cold War politics.
