A lot of people think their life is terrible because of something called the hedonic treadmill. You get used to how great your life is. No one had a hot shower until about 50 years ago. So I try to do this thing when you’re standing in a hot shower. My friend pointed this out to me. He said, “Look, when you stand in a hot shower, just for a moment think: no one you admire from 100 years ago had this simple pleasure in life.” We are in the top percentile in terms of the luck we’ve had — the lives we live, the caloric intake we take for granted, the fact that our children don’t die in the first year, modern medicine, and the entertainment available to us. We’re living like kings, and yet life has never been objectively better and subjectively worse. That’s because the nature of humanity is that our desires are mimetic. We have this tendency to measure ourselves against others. So when you ask, “How happy are you?” it’s basically your quality of life minus envy. That’s how happy you are. And it’s easy to look at everyone else and how they’re doing and not take pleasure in what you have.

>wow you should be happy you're not homeless and can afford food
The perfect example of the mindset of a slave. I deserve to be at the top of everything, and if god doesn't give me that then fuck him, I will join satan instead.

all of those modern luxuries don’t assuage the decline in social fabric caused by liberals importing millions of niggers. id give up hot showers and vaccines and capeshit slop to have a cohesive country again.

>Can't name one example where his life has been personally made worse.
Lol, sounds like someone spends too much time on the computer and tv rather than living in the real world.
Are you going to come out of your cave for Easter?

True, but mostly when it comes to basic needs. But in social sphere, utilization of technology and culture we live in, we see dysfunction, which causes discomfort and pain. Your brain does not separate between psychological and bodily pain, its all just pain to it, and very real. Those are problems, even if not life threathening, and should not be handwaved away. Because arguably having your life not threathened, but having pain in it, will lead to suicides.
You can take a moment to appreciate what you have, but you having things better than someone before you does not take the pain away.

>Can't prove even a small smidgen of how his life has been personally effected.
Yeah, brother is either a zoomer afraid of vulnerability, or someone who lets his computer do all the opinion directing for him.
You've never suffered at all have you? The only thing you suffer from is being easily brainwashed by demoralization propaganda
>I don't have to give you
Yes you do.
I am telling you to hand your vulnerability to make true your claim or you must egress your claim and like the losing male, retreat with your tail tucked between your legs.

All I'm asking for is literally one example where you've been inconvenienced in your life, to prove you aren't tv and computer poisoned.
>>
>>24167095
>tv
tv is constantly seeking tobrainwash people into believing niggers are actually cool and totally not dangerous or retarded.
I’ll play along and give you an example of niggerism affecting me but first you have to give your anecdote for how you became a nigger lover. no tv references, please.

Since doge is too bashful to cite the experience, I'll do it for him. He rode the longest chocolate rocket you've ever seen and hasn't been able to get that night out of his mind since. Once you go black, you never go back.
