The Metamodern Resurgence of Creed
I talked about this ad nauseam last year when I became the guy who predicted the resurgence of Creed before it happened, so I won't repeat all my talking points here.
But you can't understand the metamodern shift unless you get "vibes."
Our cultural vibe shifted to Creed, so if you ask yourself which party seems to give the most pro-Creed vibes, it's a pretty easy answer.
I don't study politics, but I do study culture, and here are some of the signs that a cultural shift has been brewing for years in America that most of the professional political analysts just completely missed.
Some of these may seem absurd, but hear me out. 🧵
We'll start with this one:
I don't know how to communicate with you anymore. I don't know how to soothe the rage I cause in you, or prevent it in the first place. Were I a less pathetic man maybe I could find the thing that makes me react better.
For now, I just feel broken. I want to find peace.
@jakeabr I need help... I don't even know why I'm doing this.. Your music used to mean so much to me.. a lot of people's music used to. Now, I don't find meaning in much of anything... I've got no hope left, man. The world has gotten so cold and jagged around the edges
I'm nothing more than a piece of human waste this keeps building. I need help. BetterHelp isn't therapy. BetterHelp is all there is.

There's one ounce of me that doesn't desire death, and I can't stop treating her like shit. Why do my anxieties have to be her emergencies? If the thought of physically being alone scares me, why should my demeanor make her change?
I hate what I've become.
I feel lost and I don't know how to orient myself. What does it mean to be a man? What if I'm found wanting in that measurement? I don't have a path, and everything is so nihilistic... It's all so much to bare
@McDonalds why is it that every time I make an order with your app this is what I endlessly get every time I get to the store? Each time I'm refused the food I've already paid for and told there's nothing they can do if I don't have the order number. Very suck.
