I feel like Truman, except its inversed. Everyone around me just trolling. Everyone is abusive. Everyone ignores me. I am the Anti-Truman.
That because you are in the Truman 2.0 edition where they decided to which it up a little bit
Do you want a hug then?
If you asked me IRL, I would’ve thought it was a prank where you’d go “sike lol, get pranked”
Because that’s literally what kids do at school. They say “X really likes you… NOT”
Like… dafuq?!?
I wanna just be a hermit and hide in the woods forever lol, but I can’t even farm stuff so I’m stuck with society… ugh…
I’ll sorta take that as a yes, so here ya go:

“>If [wife] leaves him he gets an instant hotter replacement”
As someone happily married, I am rather offended at how incredibly shallow this statement is. My wife is nothing short of an incredible human being, and someone assuming I would immediately get over losing her if someone “hotter” instantly replaced her is a horrible statement.
And you just know that there are people IRL who think like this.
They’re people who have no idea what an emotional attachment is, they’ve never had one. To them, women are for sex, decoration and menial labour.
While I do agree with your sentiment, Truman’s wife was a bitch.
True. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie.
It is a 4chan post, don’t take it too seriously
Don’t worry - sober me will have a chat with drunk me later about greentexts.
What you’re saying makes sense if you have a genuine connection with her
Truman’s marriage was not genuine
Of course.
Something to know though - I was very much not sober when I wrote that comment 😅
Based
It is a 4chan post, so it is written by an incel.
Imagine getting offended by a greentext lmao
It’s not the greentext - its the entire mindset of “woman for sex and housework only” that offends me.
Drunk me apparently decided to say something about it last night.
That’s because this is written by somebody with the emotional maturity of a 6-year-old, the body of an overweight 40-year-old, and the age of a 16 year old.
Beautifully said. I’m stealing this.
A friend of mine broke up with his girlfriend after almost 3 years. 2 weeks later after that, he already had a new ‘love ❣️’ saves on his phone. No idea how the fuck he does it, but onestly it made me angry.
People are often over a relationship long before it’s actually over, especially if one party is abusive or the relationship is toxic (with or without someone’s fault).
I could’ve well been that friend, because nobody knew that I took my breaking up back and stayed in the relationship until my ex broke up with me because he was threatening suicide if I broke up with him.
You’re right, there are complex cases, and often as externals we know nothing.
I was thinking more of the ‘playboy’ guy who keep changing girls because they get boring.
If it keeps happening from the same person, it becomes increasingly unlikely that their situation is like mine, yeah
The secret ingredient is slavery.
Also, 100% guaranteed the producers of the show watched Truman fap.
Omg I never thought about it. The Truman Show is literally legalized CSAM for the first 18 years.
Movie is now cursed, I can’t ever think about that shit the same ever again.
You know, if all I had to do to live a guaranteed comfortable life was to rub one out in front of a camera every now and then, sure, sign me up.
Anon wants to be plugged back into the Matrix.
He has been bluepilled, he probably thinks the earth is round, and that covid has not bill gates chemtrails with nanobots that make frogs gay and fly into peoples rectum and fuck them every night.
what a loser.
Was the Matrix not famously not a Utopia, because that ruined ‘crop’ yields.
Anon doesn’t realize how distressing schizophrenia is. Not a moment’s privacy
I mean thats basically why it was the biggest show in the world in the movie.
Everyone idealizes what it must be like to be so pure and safe from decisions. Not realizing that curiosity and a desire to be free to choose who we are is more inherent to who we are than our exhaustion at complications of life.
So people watch, to pretend to be simple.
Dude saw the Truman Show and actually envied him. God that’s cursed
that is the state of the world we are in today.
you’re not wrong. but I don’t think it’s everywhere.
I mean, that’s the conflict of the movie. If everyone around you is always kissing your ass, you’ll never know you need to wash it. Sounds great on the surface but he wants to know he’s actually loved. Not just because it’s scripted to love him.
If everyone around me was being paid to like me all the time, I’d never be sure if I was a good person. No one would ever correct me or tell me I need to do better.
Moreover, it brings fundamental questions about your life and its long term safety. Why would someone trap you in such an unfathomably expensive setup? There is no reasonable answer, meaning some insane or horrifically unethical entity controls your existence. There is danger aplenty in your situation itself.
That’s the difference - you actually care.
You have all the google (/other corp) services making your life easier, turning on the lights when you say so, syncing your files, emails across all you devices, hosting your videos, editing your family pictures for you etc… and all that for free.
But what did you sacrifice for all that, Truman ?
You left out what anon truly cares about, the assigned wife appliance.
Can’t actually fuck that yet, so it is still inferior. Maybe if anon lives long enough to see something like a sex android that is, physically, indistinguishable from a real person, or very close to it. At that point anon would probably do that “you pushed us away, now tell me how you are better, as I fuck this robot” thing, not realizing women have been on the forefront of fucking technology for well over a century now.
Anon is forgetting about the unskippable ads.
With no adblocker in sight
“The plot demands he can never struggle too much”
“Let’s kill his dad when he’s 12.”
I enjoy shit talking the silent and boomer gens having it easier, but I know I’m wrong. They were raise by people who went thru the cvil war, ww1, and the great depression. There’s a survivorship bias in who you have to hear from, there was the psychological trauma of the constant drum beat of the cold war, the civil rights movement, only being able to live one way. I know they also went thru it, but they are so outsized in their control of the economy and news now I’m just tired of viewing the whole world thru their ancient ass lens.
Fake: Anon likes the internet too much to go back to the early 90’s
Gay: Anon wants to be psychologically abused by another man for the rest of his life (CNC mascdom)
Because, anon, you’re seeing him from the outside looking in, and he couldn’t look out (until he broke free.)
You seem to assume that, knowing what you do, you’d have the same knowledge you do now when you’re in his position. You wouldn’t. You, just as he did, would have to discover the same discrepancies he did, and you (being him) would sail until you hit the wall.
Anon, do you by any chance find yourself agreeing with Cypher regarding pill choices?
Maybe our mistake is assuming it’s possible to build a utopia. Maybe every timeline ends is dystopia and the only way for that to not happen is to be satisfied with where we’re at today and halt “progress”
Nah, I think the real mistake is that it takes a ton of effort for a utopia, when really doing less is the utopia
