Discussion Why are we expected to be happy for other people?

[Giracel]

I was at a certain event recently, and this one foid who I sort of knew (too specific to explain how), was talking to me about her winter break. She said how her brother, who was a couple years older, got engaged over the break. AND that he had this girlfriend for years, since ~18 I estimated based on what I heard.

I barely reacted and just mumbled "wow great" or something, while internally seething with rage. This guy has gotten to experience teen love carrying into his early 20s, and I'm supposed to be happy for that? Why is society so cucked with these expectations?

(Note this individual was only talking to me out of courtesy, I know she has a boyfriend already)

Should've said you don't care

It would've been very awkward for the rest of the time, but yes, I could've cared less

 

[Giracel]

Should’ve beat the fuck out of her

That would lead to consequences

Should have raped that whore to express your rage

Is that closeted homosexual and definitely-not-Mexican Nicholas J. Fuentes?

Maybe just to upset me, who knows. Everyone I interact with can tell within 5 seconds I am bitchless.

envy for others is natural

rejecting it by being ‘happy’ for others is what was socially programmed to begin with

not natural at all

envy points to desire, imbalance, and unmet needs

ignoring it doesn’t make you evolved

Trvke, I enjoy how biology can explain things so well. If you are a prehistoric man, your envy of your neighbor's better hunting skills is an impetus for you to develop new tools and methods so you can better feed your family and preserve your genes. It's a survival instinct.

Also jfl at all the "I love science" redditors that reject appeals to biology as somehow invalid, as soon as incels are the ones who are making them

They're basically asking us to be happy for privileged people who see us as subhumans.

Exactly envy is law and healthy
