>they say reading 'The Road' made them depressed

What the fuck? How fucking sheltered are you that reading a book makes you depressed? Also the book is fucking beautiful and nothing that I've personally read portrays the love between a father and son more accurately.

Did they simply grow up with a single mother, and they became depressed because they realized what they missed out on? Or is the fault with me, and that I didn't become depressed because I'm already dead inside?

Nah, Redditors are just fucking pussies.

Right? H-haha.

How can you read fiction and get depressed? If you weren't sheltered you would already know all the vile shit humans are capable of when life gets rough

Parents cannibalized their children during the Holodomor. People are killed and extorted every day for selfish reasons. There literally exist people who have fucked babies to death. And yet some story that literally never happened in real life makes you depressed?

Life should make you depressed, not a fucking book.

If you’ve never been deeply moved by fiction you’re soulless. Just because heckin bad things have happened in human history doesn’t mean that everyone is perfectly in sync with those disturbances like it happened to them personally, and assuming everyone has delved deep into all those topics is also a mistake. Just say you’re a sociopath that’s incapable of empathizing with anyone or anything.

Imagine sitting in the ruins of an Iraqi village and telling the local residents that reading a book made you depressed. If that doesn't make you feel like a huge faggot then you can't be helped.

But nobody is in the ruins of an Iraqi village. Neither are you, you just spent more time on the internet and got jaded. That's not admirable, you're not a rugged veteran, who has experience the depravity of mankind first kind, you're either older, or consoomed more shit about horrible shit happening.

Normal people don’t have a helium canister and exit bag in their closet man. It’s hard for normies to understand negative emotions, actual evil or a hopeless situation.

False. You can't truly appreciate comedy if you don't understand tragedy as well.
