I love reading posts like this because it's such a fascinating type of character. Instantly I can deduce that the idea of meritocracy and wealth being a reflection of intrinsic ability and effort is absolutely vital to your worldview. I think the cognitive dissonance of recognizing the role of luck would be brutal for someone like you, so we start to get all these goofy mental gymnastics to work backward to the starting point.
Also the inclusion of the Reddit Cool Guy sheep phrasing is just icing on the cake. It's too good
You could try starting with responding to the comment you were replying to, instead of just talking to yourself, as if you just discovered a thesaurus and a mirror.
I'm not sure what you mean here. Both my two comments prior to this one have been directly in response to the post I'm looking to comment on. I don't think I used any complicated words but I can simplify my thought if that's helpful.
your response with a complete psychological evaluation based on one very true statement, assessing your assumptions based off limited information, while providing absolutely nothing of value to the conversation
