Indeed. Our expectations of human behaviour is largely derived from our own behaviour after all.

And OH's rhetoric of him being blind because he's not a total pessimist is not just as lazy and boring?
It's not like DWV is denying that we're ****ed by our current capitalist system, he's just saying that some people **** themselves over by giving up in the first place. And I find it completely ironic because they'll **** on the downtrodden just as much as anybody else. Mock people for working fast food or mock people for not having a proper education. Like, oh, wow, you recognize that this system ****s us over but you lack the self awareness to realize that both of ya'll are cogs in the machine. At least I can respect Elph because he seems to be trying rather than just bitching. But at what point has OH's overwhelming sense of pessimism kept him where he's at? He seems to get pissy at anybody trying to enjoy what little they have as if they're supposed to be as miserable as him. It's as if everything he said about that 'oh, damn!' post about Chula is filled with a lot of projection because the only difference between these two bitter old men is that OH embraced his misery and is much funnier when dispersing it. Of course many of us are extremely limited in what we can do to better our positions but at what point are people essentially stripping themselves of that power by thrusting the accountability for their own lives at everything but themselves?

Give it to them both. Chula does the same ****. It's just easier to go for the throat with a guy that pours his heart out on here all the time.

A state that you hardly know **** about as I have already proven.
