overview for IJustWentPsycho

Widespread discrimination (and sometimes persecution) against atheists, queers, and women—are all often justified by religion in places such as the Middle East and many parts of Africa. Especially today when empathy, science, and logic are more prevalent than ever.

No. Could you clarify?

Tl:Dr if something has lasted a thousand years, it’s likely to last a good time longer.

But will that something stay the same "size" in, let's say, a thousand years?

It's just shocking to me how many people still strongly believe religions like Christianity and Islam when it has been more than a thousand years now.

Could you explain why?

In that they still value their religions (mainly Christianity and Islam) to the point where they really hate the non-religious, and secularism.

Love your username by the way.

I really like the upbeat sound of the song, and its theme of love. What other good love songs are like it in those terms?

Thanks for reading!

I think you're right now. And to be fair, I didn't read the news sources I have read, cause I was too stressed to read them fully. Unfortunately that led me to over-generalize.

Though, I'm now uncertain of how many "religious crazies" there really are.

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.

That's cool! But is it open to recommending "low-end" games?

I'm looking for some communities where I can ask for specific video game suggestions, but I'm having trouble doing that. Do you know any like that?

I want to read a recent(ish) fun fantasy series with an eighteen year-old male protagonist, that has immense worldbuilding and greatly-written characters. Any suggestions?
