Is it even possible to have genuine friendships in the modern world?

It just seems like everyone wants to keep you at arms length and only talk about circle jerk pop culture bullshit. People I've been friends with for years and who I'm really socially enmeshed with, will just ignore the fact that I periodally drop off the map for months with zero contact, without ever reaching out to see if things are alright.

It's impossible to get anyone to meet up unless there's at least two or three other people there, no one ever wants to just hang out. It's impossible to actually get enough people together that people actually want to do anything.

I'm surrounded by fucking autists and it makes me feel like the autistic one.

I know there are probably people here who are much more socially isolated and I'm genuinely sorry for that. But it's fucking insane that these kinds of schizoid pseudo-relationships are the norm.

Why are zoomers like this?
