I’m just filling the void with mental and social junk food
Oh I agree. It’s sort of like AA in that regard - I don’t trust any group that says that their way is the only way, especially when the basis of their whole system is pseudo-religious mysticism.
But I guess my question is, where are the alternative support groups for these people? I bet a lot of the nofappers didn’t know they were signing up for a fascist cult at the time. They probably just thought of it as the most recognizable group of people dealing with the same issue.
I’m not trying to make any sort of moral statement here. I just think that this is a problem that requires a practical solution. A leftist support group based on social justice rather than Nazi mysticism would probably be pretty beneficial.
