That at one point, it ceases being your frame of reference. Everything that you are and feel and do, even if you're a boring, miserable fuck, is astounding and only the truly ignorant don't want as much of this meat as possible.

my favorite thing was when after the toronto action all the roasted boomer chicks on the nytimes comments were saying how women can always tell a misogynist and thats why that incel guy couldnt get laid because women are good judge of character and know when a man will treat them as a sex object, then two weeks later the same roastied up boomers were all posting in shock how schneiderman turned out to be a misogynistic pervert who abuse a half dozen women, aww, what happened? i thought women could sense misogynists from a mile away thats why incels can't get laid? now you're telling me men who abuse women can get laid easily after all? that was definitely one of those redpill moments

Whatever it is, it rarely happens in the western world, if ever. It probably involves some minority in some God forsaken muslim or african shithole; not only it is unfair and has all the qualities of a proper tragedy, but it's also a violent and gruesome tale. Except for rare cases (violence, sexual assault, child abuse, etc.) Western life is a comedy. It doesn't matter how sad you are, you were not raped at ten, nor are you a child soldier in some tribal war somewhere.

I'm not denying it happens, but it happens less often. Tragedies are tragedies wherever they occur, but if they have to happen to you, the "less worse" thing is that at least you live in the west.
Also, there are not child laborers working on a mine anywhere in the modern western world. It just doesn't happen. I'm from south america and I can assure you it doesn't even happen here.

that we are all one endless thread of circumstance and that despite our inherent interconnection as conscious beings in the universe we are all different and we may never know true empathy, thus forever condemning our species to throw ourselves into a perpetual war, slaughtering ourselves for no good reason other than to win the war.

either that or in our race to make the earth as convenient and comfortable and luxurious and, in short, as hospitable as possible for the human race, we are actively choking the earth with a fatal poison of greenhouse gases, and eventually most life as we know it will die out in our selfish pursuit of making the earth better for us

"The kingdom of heaven is within."

buddhism hasn't monopolised authentic spirituality. also, imo, abrahamic religions are superior in one regard, which is that they also deal with the political/social conditions which allow for spirituality rather than assuming them
