Nobody chooses these:
-Face
-Height
-Where you're born and when
-Who you're parents are (literally everything about them)
-The environment in your formative years
-Things like NT
-Your genetic predisposition to alcoholism or depression etc (so not completely out of your control, but still heavily influenced)
-How smart you are - IQ
-your predisposition to some diseases like type 2 diabetes
-your natural metabolism and appetit
-...
Some people get screwed in enough of these to the point where they're just in a negative Matthew Effect. Plus the fact that these can and DO have a positive or negative effect on the things that you CAN control.
Like, I'm not saying that being a piece of shit is justified if you were bullied, but guess who's more likely to grow up to be a bitter and unlikable shell of a man who hates his life:
A. Cute boy born in a high middle-class family.
B. Chubby short boy with an alcoholic mother and an absent father
Now these may be extreme (or not) examples, but you get the idea.
The train of thought that you're where you are completely because of your own efforts is simply false.
And the more privileged someone is, the more likely they are to believe that all it takes is "effort".
I'm not saying don't try to improve yourself, but your potential has a hard ceiling. You will never be better than you were born to be.
It'd be nice to see how IT reads this thread as me being an entitled misogynist, but they won't touch this because it doesn't talk about rape.
Pin please
