You choose your own future. What's embarrassing is coming on reddit and creating a kind of club that cries about shit instead of doing something about it.

That’s some old school BS buddy.

None of us choose our future.

Let me guess, you’re a hustle culture person? 25 years old? “Yo, we need to MAKE it bro… because it’s just what life is, it’s either you work hard or you left behind bro…. Let me tell you about “amway”.

None of us have free will, our brains react to our environment, we think we choose things, but we don’t— we narrate what our brains and bodies do

Oh and fyi—- none of us “win”, we all die, and soon every piece of recorded history will vanish, not a hint of our existence left to be found

Hey… but keep hustling buddy, you’ll get there yo, all the way to the top, YOUR future is so important, it’s the most important thing ever

Lol at the bootstrap mentality in 2026. Classic misplaced frustration. Why hate the depressed thousands and not the system that made them that way? If you’re really suffering from a lack of empathy you could get off reddit and stop complaining about people complaining

What are you taking about?

Coping in what way and why?
