    Exactly this, they’re playing the very silly, very illogical, very human game of, “it has to get worse, so it can get better”.

    It’s kinda like a smoker who decides to get over smoking by chain-smoking more cigarettes than ever before, to make himself so sick of smoking he can quit. It’s a race between getting sick of smoking, and lung cancer.

    Most likely things won’t get better. Things will get worse, and then worse, and then we die. We gave ourselves lung cancer while chain-smoking to avoid lung cancer.
