yes, I too have always sort of been averse to this state of mind. it does have its benefits, though. confidence comes from being able to best a uygha, or at least, create the impression that you can.

truly, it is a dogshit worldview, though. all I want is to know my limitations and try to better them, not compete with you and yours. sometimes competition can help you become more aware of your limitations, though, I guess.

>it’s not that deep bro
>ask questions later (or preferably, never)

These three platitudes are not true.
If anything, people are obsessed with “psychoanalysis” and “deeper meaning”
People are constantly pathologizing each other for the slightest nuance

It’s sad that society thinks that competition is the only value of maturation

probably depends on where you live and what kind of people you hang out with

Everyone does this regardless of what type of subculture

The worst part of this cultural obsession with competition is the glorification of suffering and conflict as virtues

“As iron sharpens iron, so must a man sharpen another man”

“No pain no gain”

“Hard times makes strong men”

It’s especially forced onto young men. Any disinterest in competition is considered a metaphysical defect that will destroy civilization.

Society preaches about masculinity being about exceptionalism but it demands men to a strict chore list of “dos and donts”. Any ounce of individuality and uniqueness is considered unnecessary if not detrimental

Tbh, femininity is also like this

Yeah it used to suck, but now with Claude I can be both lazy and fast at the same time.

I doubt that.

feeding the torment nexus all the water so you can code a little faster than your co workers

That’s ironic humor and you know it

It's not that deep bro

I wish people on here would remember that whenever they post comics from right wing artists for “trying to figure their opposition”

competition is really fun when youre winning but yeah i agree

Competition is ok if it's for fun like in sports, apparently in some prim com cultures the word for work and play was synonymous, but competition to literal crush your competition is toxic af.

I do kind of get what you mean but at the same time there is a huge utility in life of "just doing stuff" without overthinking things

>to ask if they should
UYGHA YOU GONNA DIE ONE DIE HURRY THE FUCK UP
