 >I don't have any commonalities with people in my country. I do not follow the sportsball. I stopped watching MCU and zogslop around 2016 and started doing more things irl. Aside from a select few vidya games to pass the time. Very little binging TV shows.
Same here, I don't follow any current western shows, I barely watch western movies anymore (even older content), mainstream media wise I only watch a few anime shows a year.
Recently I started spending a bit of time trying to learn Chinese, because that's a possible way out, I mean other, more radical, alternatives would probably ruin my life. I don't think I have the drive/resources/power to try fight/change the system, and in Spain even the more "radical" groups are controlled opposition and NEVER mention the real problems. It wouldn't surprise me that what's happening in Italy right now happens soon (in few years) in Spain too.
