i like the idea of friendship, but friendship is fundamentally incompatible with market economics. capitalism makes friendship impossible and capitalism couldn't exist in a society where people understood class solidarity.
i adjust by keeping to myself and avoiding humans, but i don't blame us. i don't blame the biology. i don't think it's human nature. we're brainwashed by the system, and most of us don't really get it, but it makes it impossible to really trust anybody, and i don't. you have to maintain a certain level of paranoia in this culture in order to survive in it.
