Learn how to use stupid people to help you advance in the world.

I think you forgot that taking the world seriously is something you can turn off. You call these people ignorant, but you don't know if they just don't want to deal with the seriousness of flying through space hurtling around a ball of fire that cares nothing about burning us to a crisp.

Or that politicians have been bought and paid for since the beginning having democracy

Or that there will always be a 1% that runs shit its worked out forever.

Or that poor people can and will revolt destroying the only homes they have for nothing more than the whisper of a better world

fucking kittens on the internet, get your mind in the right space when you're amongst the willfully passive, if you can't laugh at a kitten on the internet, you're burning energy on solving problems out of your control

My advice: become a regular at several bars, drink slowly, and befriend the bartenders, they can always point out regulars and help make acquaintances

Keep at it. There are a lot of stupid people in this world but there are still heaps of cool people out there, girls included.

Eventually you will meet some guys that you can connect with and even some girls as well.

Pro tip: There are hints of narcissism coming through your post. Yes this is all just a game and when you know the rules it becomes much easier to play, but it's meant to be fun!

Might I recommend this book: Interaction Ritual. You'll learn how to have fun with small talk, and I know that it won't seem so pointless to you anymore.

By improving yourself you have risen from the swamp of mediocrity where the vast majority of humanity resides.

Interacting with people will become harder since you always try to interact with those on your own level or higher.

I been where you are. I just think you're still in the anger portion of swallowing the pill. Eventually you'll start to see people not as beings that make you angry, but as a means to an end. And that end will be fun on your own terms. Then you'll actually start to enjoy their company, but in a completely different context.
