Five reasons why life is a scam

[@greatgeneralrenpa1327]

1. Sex 2. People are never ready to have children 3. People are never really happy 4. People are living meaningless lives 5. No autonomy Great video bro. Keep speaking facts. As for point 2 I’ve met a number of people that were ready and praying to have kids (granted they were older im talking in their 30s-40s). My biggest reason is that we didn’t ask or get consent to be born and another reason is that we die eventually 😂

If life is a gift then why’re we paying for it?

Yup, life is essentially a terminal illness. we are all ageing, withering away to our death.

I feel sad for people who say “the suffering is worth it” to justify procreation. It’s completely fine if YOU think suffering is worth it for YOU, but it is so wrong to assume a child will have the same exact thoughts. Absolutely selfish.

At this point of the video, 4:20, I half disagree. I live in the UK and the government's the reason why, I'm eating and why I have a roof over my head. That's brings a level of contentment. On the flipside though, the UK government has been the reason why I've been struggling for 12 plus years aswell as an entire year to find work and get in a good enough position. Get in a good enough position, out of a painfully shameful position, where I can contact my family and find out if my mom is even still alive.

[@Billy-rr7re]

it is interesting to look at all the psychological needs people have. it seems that many come from indoctrination or are greatly reinforced by it. was watching a video about reincarnation and the different ideas people have. all these ideas come from the need to feel special, the need to feel like death is not the end and that, one way or another, they will continue forever. they feel bad that they appeared here one day and then one day they will be gone, forever, so they come with ideas like reincarnation and it may take many forms. like the idea that the atoms that are part of them are basically them so, when they die, in a way they will continue to exist. the thing is that the atoms that are part of them at birth are not the same at the time of death. and those initial atoms are not created specially for them either. many of the atoms that are part of them were surely part of another person, plant, dinosaur, chair... in the past but they come up with these ideas as comfort food. they also bring the idea of energy. they are energy therefore they will be eternal. the thing is that energy is constantly being used and produced. it is just hilarious.

Life is not a scam. It wasn't meant to be perfect. You make due with what life has provided for you. There will be pain no matter who you are. You will also experience happiness. Saying that people are never really happy is a pessimistic Outlook on humanity . For people who truly suffer or have suffered in life, I'm sorry. I wish you didn't. I wish you didn't go through that. Unfortunately that's the card that was dealt. No one knows the answers. All I know, is that deeming life as a scam / meaningless will not help us. Will not stop suffering. Will not progress us. Personally, I haven't had a perfect life at all, but I know that I would rather be alive, then not ever had existed. Yin and Yang.

[@benedictinethetruth]

Actually calling life what it is Will help us.. people seems to not be able to be with themselves I think if we were truly happy social media wouldn't be flooded with posts that are really meant to prove we are happy We always try to seem happy to other people for survival the happier you seem there more people gravitated towards you If you don't see that we are not doing good as a society you may need to go through awakening there was a time in my life where I would have responded to this video the way you responded .... what makes being optimistic better than being pessimistic? Remember there more we act like things are going to be ok there more things fall apart if you are not worried you should worry and if you are worried you shouldn't worry.. people who are doing things that can truly help the wonder are actually pessimistic realizing just how bad things are makes you wanna do things that can bring real change

[@RikLeedsMusic.77]

It would be more accurate imo to say that people are never satisfied...rather than they are never happy...which goes even further to support the fact that life is a scam.
