get off of my cloud.

i often find myself these last few years daydreaming of having the means to move from America because i am genuinely afraid of the direction i feel like this country is headed. but at the same time i am every bit the patriot, i am the ones that would die for this country and to actually leave it or abandon it feels like it would be the partial death of my soul. and i dont know what to do, i am the peasant class, i am the blue collar laborer, i am 51 and i have nothing, no family no friends all of about 4 grand to my name. i am so terrified of where this world is headed right now because of the western left, and all i can do is helplessly watch, where could i even go if that were an option.

i am not really familiar with the comment or reply Dr. Peterson made to the person that said the world was over populated.
but i have to say for at least 30 years now i have believed that the world is indeed over populated. i do not say that as a declaration of some belief that "Those people" or something should be wiped out or anything like that i am simply making a comment that i think there are too many humans on this one planet. all the suffering and misery and poverty around the globe is my proof of that, driving so many other species to extinction as me constantly need more land is my proof of that, the hordes of people that are flooding insistently into all westernized countries is my proof of that. it is not about any sort of worthiness, i myself am way up at the front of that line of people that contribute nothing to the world. i see the list of problems that people like to present as all the things wrong in the world right now, and the simple answer i always see to each and every one of those problems is too many people. the problem is not that thing thing is happening and needs to be fixed, the problem is there are too many people and it leads to this problem. usually these problems were not problems just a few hundred years ago. when the lefties complain about pollution or whatever for example, i just think the trash is not the problem it is the amount of people and how much trash they are creating that is the problem and basically ditto to every problem they bring up.
i get a special heartache thinking about extinctions. for a very long time man has looked up to the sky and to the stars and wondered if we are alone, if we are the ONLY life out there. professionals say it is so vast out there and so many suns and so many worlds that it is actually statistically impossible that there is not more life out there somewhere. but still to this day we have found no signs of it anywhere, and that always makes me start thinking for all we know THIS planet this world is the ONLY place where life exists. and that makes me start really appreciating every little creature and thing that exists here, and the concept of any of these things ceasing to exist "usually because man has encroached too much onto its little territory" breaks my heart. but that is what we do now, that is all that we do now, as the population grows and grows for the last few centuries we have been spreading out further and further taking up more and more space because we all need out little corner and it is choking out all the other life forms and that is going to lead to a very bland world and existence as we and the few pray animals we need are the only life left in the entirety of existence.
so yes i think there are too many people. the kindest most sweetest part of me feels that because of all the other life being lost, the meanest greediest most selfish part of me feels it because stop flooding across my border and encroaching upon my yard and privacy.
