Assalamualaikum,

Recently I've been feeling really down looking at how bad everything has been getting around us. Countries like China, Israel, and India commit human rights crimes against Muslims and many other innocent people every day, and even the Muslim countries are all corrupted by power, radicalism, and greed. Everyone in the west seems to be against us, with both conservatives and liberals going against Islam. Fundamentalist Christians and Atheists constantly go after our religion, and people even go so far as to try and ban our sisters from wearing hijab.

Even in my everyday life people around me are becoming more and more corrupt. Men are heavily drinking, doing drugs, and measuring their worth based on how many women they have relations with, and women have been led to believe in spite of what feminism argues that their main asset is their body and beauty, and have begun to act very lewdly in real life and social media to not only get male attention, but to target lonely men and drain their money through sites like OnlyFans.

Time and time again I've been told to mind my own business, to let people behave how they want to. I rationalize that Allah gave us free will and I can't be held responsible for not trying to stop the degeneration of society because the message might never get through to these people. They're acting on pure instincts and behaving like animals, resorting to their base desires.

But to see this proliferate through our Ummah is what makes me feel the worst. I'm not saying I'm a great person by any means: I talk to friends about girls I like (I've never had a girlfriend though and don't intend to), make edgy jokes, and say very mean things about people who I felt have wronged me. But I've seen my friends who are Muslims to become involved with drugs and relationships, and even when I'd tell them stuff like that was wrong they'd tell me they were sorry and wouldn't do it again before going back and doing it again. Even in politics the few Muslims we see are brainwashed by the liberal elite and push for things like expansion of LGBT stuff which could become very harmful if exposed to small children, as well as all kinds of birth control that will simply encourage more pre-marital behavior.

I'm sorry for ranting for so long, but it's all become tiresome. No one outside of my mom seems to take my side on my views, and I've become very depressed. I think maybe the world would be better off if we ended up having an extinction like the dinosaurs, or at the very least if I was dead so I didn't have to feel so bad (suicide will never be an option because it's Haram and I refuse to let my family go through that loss). I feel useless, like nothing I say or do will matter to anyone, and that the Muslim community despite how much it's growing, is not what it should be. Again, I'm not the best person, but even I can see things are become bad and I hate that's it's become like this.
