Love seeing it DOA every year c. 2020, finally ppl were given carte blanche to GIVE UP. dont believe its an economic thing. Pretty cheap to go outside walk around in rags/scream mask etc.

Total societal disintegration, no cohesion, no trust, beyond that, people simply dont even like strangers, their deracinated ugly dusky 'neighbors' etc. Its hilarious.

People cope that it "isnt dying" but "evolving" (house parties) more secluded, for adult children, its less about the 'scary' and more about the social GC plastic garbage commercial side of things for deracinated mutts etc but this is all a red herring, shits falling apart @ the seams IRL across board, noone even has friends anymore

I genuinely pray for disasters which force people to DEAL w the reality of hundreds of racial alien strangers occupying / living in close proximity to them with which they have zero cultural common ground with other than manufactured global village consumerist garbage that deep down noone enjoys. Im sad Trump won so the power grid wont get cut out and shit but hey, give it a few decades? maybe when AI is slurping up electricity, MMAYBEEEE goy will be COMPLETELY FUCKED then *crosses fingers* & will have to walking dead style communicate/collaborate with all these racial subalterns theyve been living in monastic silence with hoping it would fix itself

I really really want to see people in pain, Florida storm and LA fires have been holding me over for now, schadenfreude humiliation, goy forced to deal with their neighbors. Im a really weird guy. James Woods crying over his house got me hard.

I live in one of those neighborhoods and i get several hundred trick or treaters. I think people do not stay local anymore so there's a higher concentration of trick or treaters in "nice neighborhoods"

Plus there's tons of "trunk or treat" events and similar stuff in other neighborhoods.

I just don't get what the OP is based on. The only objective measure is way up, and my kids have like dozens of Halloween events between school, the neighborhood, church.

"I think people do not stay local anymore"

this is all part of the death of halloween. you used to have your white neighbors showing up in cute costumes. make a bit of small talk, etc. now it's transient mercenary mudspawn being bussed in to demand their yearly tithe after which they will disappear until next year.

There is some of this going on to be sure.

But like the meme says, “Society is on the verge of collapse” usually means “my personal life is shit.”

If you had five kids, Halloween and Christmas and such would be magical again for you. These child-holidays get a little empty in your 20s, but should come back roaring when you see them through your child’s eyes of wonder in your 30s.

Have moar kids!

Halloween is a satanic holiday that no Christians should be celebrating.

I live in an all white town and our neighborhood has ton of kids, trick or treating was yuge pre and during “Covid”. Last couple of years it’s been dying off because Christians are finally waking up.

As a kid it was a night you could go out after dark with your friends with the expectation of some sort of adventure, independence, freedom, chaos etc.

Now, it's a controlled environment supervised by parents: a totally sterilized experience for the kids. I wasn't able to this year, but i try to make sure that after they get home from whatever group activity my wife brings them to, we still go out around our neighborhood. My older ones are just about at the age they can go without me.

Along the same lines, I encourage them to go on bike rides around our neighborhood with their friends and won't let them have phones until they are teenagers.

^^solid dad right here.

Moms are so inclined to go to these stupid parties at school, trunk or treats, shopping mall / plaza / downtown events, but those all totally miss the mark of what’s special about that night for kids who are 5-13/14/15. Fine to go to those things in addition, but not as substitutes for the fun of walking around your neighborhood, running into people you know, houses all decorated, etc. and all focused on those 2-3 hours for kids in that pretty narrow age band.

My kids go to a diverse school (in the real meaning, not the xo meaning) and there are lots of people who don’t celebrate Christmas—*all* the kids (even the Jews) celebrate Halloween. It’s probably the biggest event of the year for kids of a certain age. They talk about it for 2 months before and obsess about it for the weeks leading up to it.

As we knew it. And thats fine. People with kids and people who drink still get together to celebrate the ridiculousness of it while larping as a better version of themselves.

it's a loop. the deracination is from market derived alienation, and i agree with marx on that much

when "christmas" and its symbols are subsumed by coca cola bears and mall santas you don't really have much of what causes the holiday to stand on its own in the public mind
