you took my point wrong
i mean everyone
I mean one can easily construct a convoluted counterexample
When I say ādoesnāt do anythingā I speak non-literally. I mean āwhich, compared to the alternatives, has much less meaningful impact on improving other peopleās livesā
i mean someone who sits in their room all day and is mean on the internet does something
ah.
well thats not very nice
Thatās why I said it made me an asshole
you should look into improving it instead of accepting it
Itās not a conviction I feel as a moral one. I donāt go āthese are evil people who sit in their room all dayā. Itās just, like, that isnāt how I prefer to live, and I wish everybody agreed with me
iām having some chicken
I think itās fine for me to have a general preference for people who share my values like āI want to spend my time on earth improving peopleās lives as much as I canā
if thatās who you want to hang out with
but letās not be silly, my friend!
my mother used to make fajitas
itās kinda sad eating alone when you do remember things like that
i want to get my energy back so i can cook
itās a fight to stand so i cannot bother
when i compare what iām eating now to what i remember it honestly tastes quite bad
Shrug. Ultimately also has a lot of correction for opportunity and choice and stuff like that. Specifically the people I find myself looking down on are, like⦠my peers from high school with well-off parents and plenty of opportunities who ultimately choose to spend a lot of (their parentsā) goddamn money on a college degree that doesnāt let them improve peopleās lives. I spent my time around a lot of people like that in high school, and itās like⦠you have so much, this is what you want to do with it?
i think people struggle in their own unique ways
i find it excessively hard to look down on anyone, even if i feel weird when i compare others to myself when iām holding myself in particularly high regard on occassion
they have no. motivation
theyre not coded that way, so they donāt
right iām doing it again
people are ultimately very complex creatures who just donāt work that way
you see power and wealth but itās mostly just the willpower
I just wish everybody had that motivation. And I prefer being around people who do have the motivation. They are the way they are, and me being mean to them isnāt gonna change that, so Iām not. But itāll change the company I prefer.
