Is it normal that i feel humans have no point, i hate everyone around me

Humans are pointless.
We perpetuate ourselves, create truths in our lives. We kill other things, and rationalize that we are allowed to and that its alright to kill them. We hurt our friends, lovers, family. We hurt people inadvertently, because we buy products made by children in sweat shops, we support a company which is destroying a families home. We live and breathe, we ache our hearts and die for a machine which we have made. It spits us out when we die. We buy possessions, they don't come with us when we die. All we are is carbon, we will die, everyone we love will die, no one will remember us. We fill our lives with sentimental bull to forget about it, to make an illusion. Then life comes and pushes us over, we are reminded by it when someone we love dies, then we move on, and forget. Slowly we become numbed, we become desensitized to the atrocities that happen. We forget, and move on.

I feel alone, can someone tell me that I'm not alone in feeling this?.

    I had to go through a long period of nihilism in order to transcend it. I'm resigned to the fact that there is no inherent meaning, logic, or morality to the human condition, but there is a bright center to the dark mass.

    Don't be swallowed by anomie. Try to create your own meaning and worth. Be authentic; be an exception to the rule. There is no sense in spreading empty hate just because we hate emptiness so much. You're right, there is a void of callous hollowness in the world, and we're in a dark, cold room... so light a fucking match! Start a fire! Spark the world!

    Anyway, I know you weren't looking for any of this. I know I would've hated hearing it. But if you think about it long enough, I think you'll come to the same conclusions. It takes wisdom to realize what you have realized, but I think it takes even more to learn what you can from it and move on. You seem like a smart one.

    I have these existentialist moments all the time now. Probably doesn't help that I don't believe in the supernatural (aka God(s)).

    Before you go find a gun due to lack of purpose, consider this: you don't lose anything by living out your life. Once your life is over, it's over. No matter how you look at it, suicide merely takes things away from you.

    You can't have life without death, nor death without life. There is no way to live without causing harm to another. At all. There will always be those who suffer and those who profit. Nothing will ever change this.

    Boo hoo! Just kidding. Sorta. It's ridiculously normal to feel this way, I would know. Honestly, I've just come to see beauty in pain and know that happiness and suffering are two sides of the same coin. And yeah, maybe people do suck, maybe we don't deserve to be here, but guess what? We are, so what are you gonna do, cry about it? Just have fun and surround yourself with people who make you happy.

    Yet you are trying to get response from other humans......
    There are different types of human. You cant just hate human kind because you hate some of them. I think you are hating the first world people.

    I love you? You're just having a hard time accepting this strange world we live in. Right now everyone is very apathetic towards each other. The only way to fix it is through educating others they really don't know any other way of living.

  • Well if you spend most of your time considering this then you will certainly not have lived your life and most definitely wouldnt have enjoyed it if you did. That being said, everything you have said is completely, 100% true. I will go even further in saying that 99.9% of all species that have existed in the fossil record (the only record we have) have gone extinct. That tells me that one day humans will join that statistic. So really anything anyone does wont mean anything one day. Could be a day millions of years from now or less then 100 years, either way its going to happen.

    Religion is a bunch of nonsense as well, so dont listen to any answers that I am sure people will post about finding God or how Jesus Christ our savior died for our sins. You dont transcend to some other plane of existence when you die or float on a cloud with your dead family members in perpetual bliss. You just die, the same as that roadkill you pass by everyday on your way to work. Dead is Dead.

    Oh yes but there are the people who transcend your stereotype. The people who are selfless, who create art, who try and better themselves. Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Einstein, the classics. And the people you see everyday committing random acts if kindness, such as driving around downtown delivering meals to all the homeless. People do what they can; it's not always noticeable. And that just gives me a little hope. :)

    I hate humans. They/We destroy everything. Some take the right to just control wheter an animal stays alive or dies. They just kill them for food. Terrible! That's what I hate most at the moment. :I

    Yes I am going through an extremely sensitive period in my life as well. I'm at the point where I'm trying to block out all the questions and misguided answers just to feel the feeling of numbness. I am harboring so much anger which I am starting to blast on everyone that surrounds me. I am so tired
