Are you a 'social misfit,' and (if so) are you proud of that? :)

[WilliamSmith]

You guys just had a fairly long serious of exchanges I enjoyed reading in the "Banning and Warning Announcement Threads" (starting from here: viewtopic.php?p=404824#p404824) after @Natural_Born_Cynic and I started talking about the side topic of people who consider themselves "social misfits" (something which our proprietor @Winston has discussed and written about at great length for many years).

I decided to repost some of it here with a poll, LOL, why not?

Oh, and FYI I'm not being "OCD" (if that's the term I want) and trying to reorganize other peoples' posts, I just thought there were some good contributions there on that particular subject, so thought I'd repost them here in their own thread rather than having them disappear in what's currently the 74th page of the "Banning and Warning Announcements" thread. HA being the unique island of free speech that it is, I suspect that the already huge Banning and Warning Announcements thread is going to get a whole lot longer than a mere 74 pages in the fullness of time.

Well to start with here was my first post on the subject :

Hmmm....
Personally, I'm probably more likely to like and befriend "social misfits" rather than the so-called "normies" because I like people who think out of the box (as long as they're not too deranged to even deal with reliably), but I'll also just point out that at least some of us frequenting this unique HA habitat aren't really "social misfits," even if we're willing to befriend those that temporarily are before they "come into their own," so to speak.
I think at least me, @gsjackson, @Pixel--dude, @MarcosZeitola, @publicduende and some others aren't really "social misfits"?
I suppose you could argue I sort of was one prior to my rebelliously dropping out of high school in my early teens (after which I flourished, best decision I ever made, LOL), but I was actually somewhat popular with the girls even before then, LOL!
(I didn't get the impression you were a "social misfit" at all either, even if we're pretty much on the same page about how 2020s jewnited states sucks, LOL?)

I admittedly prefer the company of women offline if I had to choose only one source of human interaction , but I also don't really see HA as "stagnant," either, since when I come back here I always get drawn into binges of reading huge #s of threads and wanting to respond to more than I have time for, since the stuff guys like you, @Lucas88, @Pixel--dude and @gsjackson have recently posted is so much more interesting than anything you can discuss with most people offline.
Of course it has very low traffic, but that's because the jews have launched their campaign for global internet censorship and outlawing free speech worldwide, and so delist and hide sites that let anyone speak truth about jews from search engine results.

@WilliamSmith

It's funny, the thread is about banning people but digressed to who is a social outcast or not.
As I mentioned before and in many other thread, I'm a social outcast/lone wolf commando type at least in America.
I feel I'm in behind enemy lines because I'm pretty much invisible to Ameriskanks and other types of Americans. They look at me with disinterest and apathy with their cold hollow eyes.. No body ever offer me to hang out with them and I never experienced any sort of genuine friendship and camaraderie here in America. America is a big emotionally hollow desert for me. Am I proud of being a Social Outcast? Not really. I didn't become Social Outcast by choice.. it was involuntarily. I used to have friends and belonged to a clique but they booted me out. Girls in America has been extremely apathetic and disinterested in me. Like I wasn't even there..I did manage to get a "coffee date" with one girl in College, but she was 4 years older, ugly with no make up, and an anthropology major, I tried to meet up with her but I didn't have her number, so the meeting didn't happened. Oh well.

[WilliamSmith]

Thanks William. You seem like a cool guy to me. Yes, it's in your avatar, you hanging out with bunch of women.

@Natural_Born_Cynic

Oh thanks, shit I've been coming here for so many posting binges over the years I forgot my avatar, but of course my avatar proves I've got serious game and am a big chick magnet for sure, same as yours proves you're a true renegade who looks even more dangerous and badass than Woody Harrelson in Natural Born Killers wearing a pair of red-tinted shades.

I wasn't always a social outcast. I had friends in middle school, but in middle of High School, all of my friends suddenly betrayed me and turned their back on me without warning. I got booted out of my own clique and I was left as a loner and social outcast in rest of High School. College years, it's hard to make friends because people are always busy, some people are middle aged adults, military people coming back to college, most commuted to their homes on the weekends and I'm not much of a party animal so I was rejected from fraternities. So very little chance to "hang out". I stayed in my dorm and played computer games most of the time. I discovered happierabroad during third year in college back in 2012 and lurked there until 2017. Then I quit then I joined and contributing 2020 to now.

Holy !@#$, that sucks! But if that's how your "friends" treated you in high school than they certainly were never actually true friends.
I prefer female company overall, but even my old churlish friends I've periodically gotten in drunken spats or bouts of fisticuffs with would never have done that to me (nor me to them).

I work in logistics company right now, but my company office is full of older koreans who are married and have kids. No way to socialize with them because it is a korean company and I'm the youngest there. Korean culture is young people is not suppose to call old people "friend" , they think it's an grave insult and young people have to use honorifics to older people all times. What a sh*t culture, but at least salary is decent.

Ahh, while I realize the two nations are very different, that more rigid type of hierarchical structure leading to a frustrating sense of social alienation is a complaint I've often heard Japanese men comment on too.

Sad thing is that the USA sometimes was like a beacon of social and business freedom where people who wanted to get away with that could really be themselves and escape that kind of scene, but most of them don't have such a positive view of it new in Weimar 2.0 post-plandemic as everything gets run down the tubes. (Most of my Japanese and Chinese acquaintances who used to like it up there in the USSA have now either gone back home, or else relocated elsewhere in the case of the Chinese who don't want to go live under the CCP either...)

Sometimes I think I am born on the wrong race. I would've been better off if I was a Italian, frenchman, spainard, Greek, south european.
Much less anal retentive Asian and Northern White culture.

Hmmm, maybe you and @Lucas88 are vibing on this liking for Southern Europe here. If I was in your shoes I'd still go try scoring some Baltic women somewhere like Latvia since they're genetically healthier than Southern European women and there's a nice disproportionate ration of "Aryan" hotties outnumbering the male population up there.

Thanks. I'm Korean by the way. I agree.. many Koreans wanted to get away from their rigid culture and poverty back in the 1970's and 90's.
Many Koreans come to America to open up Laundromats, nail salons, convenient stores, liquid stores, etc. Then there were Koreans who were sent to the U.S by big companies in Korea such as Samsung, Hyundai, Kia, etc. However, now things take a really bad turn as the US has become a communist/socialist hellhole version of itself. Oh man. America is flushing itself down the toilet. No wonder all those Asian people coming to America went back to their country.

Yeah my middle school early high school friends.. I found out a while ago that each of them has been friends since the first grade and the clique already has been formed. I came to miserable town called Paramus NJ at fifth grade and spent my time, effort, and even some money(buying them McDonalds, and other meals) to befriend them. Now I live in Korean town. It turned out they were bunch of f*cking freeloading bastards. I hope they all burn in hell. Muhahahaha. Friendship in America is extremely difficult. Those f*ckers will stab you in the back without any warning, you gotta be careful. American is similar to Japan in terms of socialization. America may look free on the outside, but inside it is very repressive similar to Japan.

My fixation with Southern Europeans are not because they are perfect human beings and their society is 100% perfect, but because I like their culture, architecture, cuisine, etc similar to what Lucas think. It is much more warmer and vibrant compared to the rigid asian and anglo saxon culture. My personality aligns more with Southerners instead of East Asians, and Anglo Saxons.

I should give Baltics a try, lot of hot babes over there. Willing to visit next year or so.

I guess in this kind of forums and social environments, the label "social misfit" is carried like a badge of honour

I see nothing wrong in being called a "social misfit", if this is used to differentiate us to the majority of people who decide to shut up and put up, or placidly comply, with whatever agenda and trend is been pushed by TPTB from above. It's not the "shut up and put up" that I criticise, but the fact that so many "normies" embrace it as if it was the ultimate solution for the Greater Good. Sure, we need more testosterone-laden illegal migrants, so our women can feel even more scared to go out at night. We need more LGTBQXYZ+_% because, hey, the rainbow is made up of many colours! The younger they convert, even physically, the better. We need more indentured slaves, working like asses to pay alimonies to their ex-wives on top of their 35-year mortgages. We need more inane social media trends, possibly involving twerking pre-teens and fabricated drama, high-fructose sugar candy for our brain that can distract us from thinking straight.

If this is being a normie in 2023, then yes, I will wear the label like a f***ing badge of honour!

@publicduende
Well, that was a fun post, so in honor of that alternative definition of "social misfit" I went ahead and changed my own vote to "yes" too (and proud of it), even though I wasn't really thinking of myself that way before, LOL!
I had friends in my earlier childhood even though a lot of it was unhappy for other reasons, and I wasn't unpopular with the girls either so I never felt as negative as some of the others understandably do. But I've always aroused comment for "marching to my own drummer" so I'm counting myself in, even though for years I've gotten comfortable dealing with all kinds of people in person after studying movie actors and reading all those seduction books about how to have good conversations with people and try to develop some charisma, the Dale Carnegie stuff, "How to Have Confidence and Power in Dealing with People," etc.
(Of course, I meant good conversations and charisma IRL, not on HA while I'm drinking rum and vociferously ranting and raving about the evils of satanic jews and homosexuality on this forum, while sharing info with likeminded souls like @Lucas88 and @Pixel--dude on how to try to survive their next plandemic and so on, LOL.)

@Natural_Born_Cynic

Oh yes, I know you're Korean! You've actually taught me more interesting things about Korea than I'd ever known before through your informative posts here.
When I said "I realize the two nations are very different" earlier, I meant Korea vs Japan (who from what I've seen often tend to hate each other's guts, not necessarily on an individual person-to-person basis of course, but definitely on a political basis from what I've seen)... and yet the sort of rigid social/cultural and age-based stratification that you described sounds a lot like what Japanese described too.

I've known some Koreans over the years when I was in USSA too, but I never learned much about Korean nation or culture specifically.
However, I also caught your recent post where you posted a pic of the legendary "Rooftop Koreans", and as it happens I actually knew a Korean guy from LA who got the !@#$ out of there after the LA riots and opened a new business much further north that I used to go to regularly (which is how I got to know him). Some of them had some really cool guns at that time that the ZOG later ended up banning for civilian use. I think the legendary TEC-9 was one of them.
Hey I think you inspired another separate "Rooftop Koreans" thread for later....

[fschmidt]

My vote should be obvious.

[WilliamSmith]

My vote should be obvious.

@fschmidt
My guess is your vote was one of the 3

"Yes (consider self a "social misfit") + Yes, wear that label as a badge of honor"

votes (as was mine, as well as 1 more unknown individual).... or am I wrong due to my being a "complete moron who deserves to be executed?"

Thanks, I'm glad that you learned a bit about Korea from my posts. Both Korea and Japan is similar to that regard, rigid social/cultural, age based hierarchy. Korea isn't a Kpop wonderland, and Koreans are not known to be open and friendly bunch. Koreans are always stressed out, pissed off, and standoffish and cliquish both in the U.S and in their own country. Not lot of friendly, open minded ones from the Koreans.

My credentials are I work in a Korean company where I have to deal with Koreans on a daily basis, people from all walks of life, and hundreds of Korean women of all ages and social status. I live in Korean town, and used to go to Korean Church, not anymore. I also visited Korea back and forth to see relatives.

Unlike the Japanese, Koreans can be real rude a$$holes, short tempered, impatient, and stubborn with big egos. Korean women, most of them are
vile harpies and psychopathic materialistic, shallow c*nts with body of an emaciated 16 year olds or 12 year olds with lot of plastic surgery and makeups. They are not worth exploring. You better off banging Latinas or Baltic women instead.

Most koreans prefer to hang out with their own. They don't like foreigners except if your a white person from an advanced first world country.
Filipinos are considered "subhuman" in Korea. I'm considered one of the rare breed of Koreans who likes to engage with foreigners instead of my own countrymen.
