Experience is a skilled teacher.
Brutal, but efficient.
Observing it is like listening to John Wayne Gacy talk about business psychology.
Head manipulation, stuff like that.
Just the line of bullshit,
Soooo.
Maybe it’s just a product of a system.
If everything is built on a game, you’re going to get some characters that have developed into very odd players.
Like uh, tactics, stuff like that.
Honor is cool, work ethic means something, yada yada yada.
But there’s no advancement out there. That’s how you live and die stuck in a vein, which is just how it goes.
So you can adjust yourself, you can grow or shrink your own goals, if you have any of those, you can learn to be content grateful at any level.
But you’re not really engaging, you’re not really taking part or playing the game at all.
I don’t like it.
Any more than you do.
Something that runs parallel with ego.
“sense of power, sense of control”. stuff like that
