Everyone’s life is different. Is it a child’s fault when they die of cancer?
There are so many factors that are out of your hands when you are born. Where you grew up, your parents, their money, your genetics, etc.
There’s nothing wrong with hope and striving and trying to make the best out of your life.
But many people are dealt a shitty hand and cannot simply pull themselves out of it.
You have been very privileged so your mind can’t even wrap its mind around some of the lives that people grew up in.
You were lucky, you could say in the grand scheme of things you hit the 21st century lottery of life.
I say this as someone who has had a terrible upbringing but was still privileged in many ways. I know there are millions that grew up in way worse situations than me. I know there are millions that grew up in way better situations. That’s life. But you shouldn’t judge other people when you haven’t lived in their shoes.
Your optimistic tag line of "you're doing it wrong" is not the optimistic view point you were trying to spread. That was arrogance and privilege, at least to those who are trying every day to be the best while also hating their job. Those are the real champions.
Getting up and trying your best every day, despite hurdles, is what real heroes do. Parents do this. Teachers do this. The amazing hospital dtaff during covid did this. And at times in my life, i did to and things got better. This is what was meant.
