'You expect life to be handed to you on a silver platter'

[Pikacel]

Yes but what do you expect?

My whole life everything was done for me by my parents. I never developed any individuality. When teen years hit and I technically had the freedom to go out and do stuff I still had the habit of a coddled child and never did anything outside of going to school and going home.

When you're at school you're taught to just follow orders or you'll end up in detention. There's no room for self expression. Obviously this doesn't work for real life where there are no immediately enforced rules or teachers to punish people. As a result if you don't have consistent extracurriculars growing up you're just fucked, school does not prepare you for anything

Competence = confidence. Shit social skills lack of life skills type of guy isn't going to put himself out there or develop an entreprenurial go getter mindset

The idea of putting myself out there and doing things on my own is inconceivable

Relatable.

Its not like most people dont have everything in life served to them on a platter

Its just that life allows them to think that They acquired the life they have through their own work instead of knowing the truth that they got lucky

Schools entire purpose is just to crush any originality and curiosity out of people. 12+ years of having to ask to go to the bathroom, being shuffled in and out of rooms with the sound of a bell is not supposed to foster any kind of entrepreneurship or independence. The "teachers" just morph into your boss or the cops, groom kids to be the best goyim then grow up to be an obedient tax goyim.

Exactly. It’s designed to teach you to follow orders. Most you should expect from me is to just studycel and follow orders

This ‘go out and do stuff’ is cancer. I’m incapable of acting like that. Does that mean I don’t deserve anything? Should I just give up and NEET then?

12 years of killing your independence and spirit then suddenly you’re supposed to be some proactive confident person

Ironic.
Normies had their life handed to them. Not saying it's easy for them, but it is simple. The path was laid out for them, all they had to do is follow it. For us there is no path, we have to figure everything out by ourselves.
It's like the difference between a linear game and an open world game.

Theres a path already set out for us but its not a good one
Everything is always predetermined

They dont want you to be confident they just want another cog to keep society afloat

Silver platters are expensive

I didn't expect things to be "handed" to me, but I at least hoped for a fair shot at a lot of things. Being forced by my school to have an aide follow me around to watch me at all times on school grounds who would keep me out of a lot of things really put a damper on my outlook for the long-term.
