    Depends on your circumstances and brain chemistry, but the fact you’re already asking isn’t exactly a good indicator.

      Yep, intellect and capacity for introspection are curses in this bad joke of a civilization, especially in poor socioeconomic circumstances.

      No one will even be honest with them in childhood and just tell them “because some sociopath families who were born before you called generational dibs, and convinced some of the other poories that are dumber than you to defend their dibs at gunpoint.”

      Nope, they have to parse through the bullshit of bootstraps and can do attitudes that tend to be thrust upon children for years after the Santa Clause jig is up.
