Society can save you

Make you or break you

 

You can save you

Make you or break you

 

Both can be true

 

The potential of individual to save himself

does not refute the value of creating a society which thrives, and thus in which individuals thrive,

and are “saved”, when they get in trouble

 

But the potential of society to save the individual,

does not make the individual any less of a fucking LOSER

And the worse his circumstances are — as he continues to do NOTHING — the bigger loser he becomes

(even if hypothetically, if he was given a “chance” — he’d regain traction, and build himself up, one small win at a time)

 

What is a loser?

You’re a loser if you’re NOT improving your situation

There’s always room to improve

I know you have many excuses, so do I

My theory is that the best measure is WHAT YOU TANGIBLY IMPROVED TODAY

Because that cannot be faked

You start a day with a problem — you either solved it or not

Do it every day — and tell me your life hasn’t been transformed

 

We must be able to hold both ideas at the same time

A LOSER IS A LOSER

He LOST

He DIDN’T IMPROVE SHIT

His situation only got worse

Maybe he’s not to blame. Life has been very TOUGH most of the history

But he either did something to IMPROVE that situation — or didn’t

If he didn’t — he’s a loser

We can NEVER excuse losing, it doesn’t make any sense

Just because it’s human doesn’t mean it’s good

Just because it happens and must be accepted to exist — doesn’t mean it should be accepted to persist

It doesn’t make any sense

 

We should build a society that takes everyone up

And guess what — we largely did

It’s VERY far from perfect

Sometimes one thing improves at the expense of another

The rest is up to you

We STILL try to build a better society

But you STILL have to do your own work

 

And if you don’t — then you’re a FUCKING LOSER

It’s not an insult, it’s reality

It’s not a label — it’s a description of a fact

We will STILL improve society

Maybe we will save you

But you’re STILL a loser if you don’t attempt to save yourself

And the worse your situation is — the bigger loser you are for not stepping up

(even though it’s often a downward spiral)

 

It’s genuinely harder and harder to escape being a loser — the more you’re losing

Understanding this however does NOT CHANGE THE FACT, the label

It’s genuinely harder and harder to walk the more your muscle atrophy

You’re still becoming a cripple, me understanding the mechanism doesn’t change that

 

LOSERDOM must absolutely NOT be excused

Otherwise it proliferates, spreads

Condemning it is necessary

And yet it has nothing to do with empathy and charity, or lack thereof

You can absolutely be empathetic and charitable and helpful — AND CONDEMN the rot

 

…or actually, you MUST condemn the DEGENERATION — if you TRULY ARE EMPATHETIC and WELL-INTENDED

Otherwise it WOULDN’T MAKE ANY SENSE!!!

How can you have one goal — yet ALLOW behaviour that is at ODDS with the realisation of that goal?

You can’t want success and happiness and prosperity for others — yet ACCEPT their own actions which LEAD AWAY from that goal, accept degeneration

 

Besides the society will spoil its individuals,

And it will exploit them,

Sometimes both at the same time

Once again — what the society must do is still going to be predicated on the goals of the society

Which at the moment can be progress, or growth, or prosperity, or well-being, or culture, or whatever meme

And at times it will be more supportive of the individuals — and at times less

At times more supportive of the small — at times more supportive of the whole

And at times less supportive altogether, more corrupt, more supportive of the few, and generally backwards (except that models is always backwards in the long run — since the few can only benefit so much when the whole is degenerating)

 

We will STILL try to run the society the best we can

But NO MATTER HOW WE RUN IT — you’ll still have the choice every day to be a LOSER — or a CHAMPION

And if you choose to be a loser — I will call you a loser

Society should call you a loser (and still help you, or not, depending on how it’s run at the moment)

And you should know that you’re a loser

 

Maybe you even accept it

Just don’t pretend you’re not a loser

Don’t pretend you’re not a loser just because society has failed you

Don’t pretend you’re not a loser even if society proclaimed to help you, and truly SHOULD have helped you

You’re still a loser

 

One last time, the simple essence is:

-Society should take better care of all its individuals — and how well it does that is a subject for a debate — the necessity is not

-Individuals can still be fucking losers if they fail to take due responsibility — and must be condemned

-The more hopeless your situation is — the harder it is to extricate yourself — but it ALSO MAKES YOU AN EVEN BIGGER LOSER, if you’re not scaling your efforts according to your needs

+If enough individuals fail — the society will fail anyway. And of course if society fails — so do individuals
