So, is it smarter to feel like shit all the time so that others' arrogant happiness can be seen for the joke that it is?
By joke i mean that they think their passive aggressive laughing is actually something funny, in reality it's pathetic.
I mean has anyone actually thought about how much their 'laugh' costs others? While a person has the time to laugh in this world, rabbits are being executed alive, people are being made fun of, killed. So much destruction and there's a need for laughter?
I've had a tough time lately feeling like i can coexist with people. I just don't want to be here anymore unless i can help others in a realistic way.
I just don't know how to help.

Wanting to help is a very good thing, but I don't see what that has to do with laughing. Genuine laughter is one of the few good forces this universe has going for it. That being said, fake laughs and people that laugh when they are uncomfortable are horrible. Is that what you're getting at?

Les imbeciles heureux. ;)
Laughing is good for your body and mind and can act as a rather fitting shield.

yeah real laughter is a great thing. i guess just dimsiss that part of that post. Let's focus more on how people can help others realistically in this world. I don't think by sending a letter to the people who are fucking with rabbits is going to stop, and you can really only do something yourself, so what is the best way to help in today's world?

I think the first and most important bit is to not feel like you're a useless piece of shit. If we all think everything is worthless and feel helpless then no one is gonna go anywhere.

IMO, the best thing is try to be a god person yourself, and don't actively try to change others. If you're a nice person, you'll be successful at changing the world for the better in your own small way, then others follow your example and eventually the world becomes better and better. That's the theory, anyway. I think it's a good theory.
And don't feel uselss, man. Even seeing things as they really are and having the intention to make the world better is highly admirable *hugs*.

Slightly in danger of derailing XLT entirely once and for all, but carry on.

I talked to my shrink and other people many times about this, and the answer I get is "you can't take all the misery of the world on your shoulders, just distance yourself from it and live your own life."
And they seemed quite happy, nobody is expecting me to give a second thought to any of the misery in the world.
And not even the universe is expecting me to. I can be as selfish as I want with no penalty from any universal forces. We are completely free to disregard everyone else.
I guess if you really wanted to help, you could join organizations that do work in the areas you are interested in. Be active for the causes you care most about.
And as tractern said, the best way to change the world isn't to be isolated, it's to be social and active and talking to others.
You talk to them and give your own thoughts on things and maybe they will give it a thought too, and maybe then you will change the world in your own way. Be supportive of people close to you who you can help directly.
By not being social you are actually not living your full potential. Maybe someone could have felt better if you were there for them.
But in the end, you have your own life, and it is true that you can't take all the misery of the world on your shoulders. You need to take a break and think about yourself too. When you are sad the world is just a little bit sadder too.
