 There's some sort of academic report about how the mental health of a particular city folk (I think it was the irish) improved dramatically when they became embroiled in an ethnic or national conflict.  Men's especially, suicide went down significantly, as did alcoholism, etc.  To be fair these people already had a sense of themselves as a rooted ethnic group but maybe something similar could happen with Whites in the near future?  Idk.

Although personally I'm turned off from relationships, let alone sex, alltogether.  Just the thought of being trapped with some narcissistic manhater that subjects me to withering contempt for every perceived impropriety and mistake, day in and day out, constantly regailing her friend group with tales of what a piece of shit i am, it makes me want to die inside.  Honestly I think that could describe maybe 30-50% of marriages since the end of ww2.  At least when I'm alone I can have peace and there are groups like the NJP I can contribute to.  A lot of us aren't *meant* for the romantic happy ending
