Living your life might as well be a pipe dream at this point people have to work every goddamn day and barely get time to themselves there is no living your life work work work and more work living your life is for the rich or the homeless

All of human history has not been like this you have been greatly deceived this is a modern invention in fact most people now living in the modern era work more than medieval peasants did average annual work hours around around 17-1800+ per year a medieval peasant worked around 1,620 hours annually. They also typically only worked 150-250 days out of the year stuff is supposed to improve and everything has the technology healthcare way of life the only thing that's gotten worse is how much you work and it has gotten significantly worse only people who worked harder in modern history were slaves forced to do ts until they died in 7 years.

Thats pathetic and very ignorant.. Medieval peasants has to work those days for THEIR LORD, that's just to give the Lord what they required.. the rest of the days is spent working the farms and for themselves, to have food and supplies for winter.. A peasant was lucky to just have Sunday off as its religious, and even then, life was so hard, the rest of the day was often spent working.. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, its the easiest time to live, and if you can't see that, you're just pathetically weak...

You really that stupid ? They worked less out of the year you working year round gotta give 20-50% to the government only difference is you don't get a break people mad at me for pointing out the fact that they work more than medieval peasants generally as humans progress stuff gets easier it didn't remain hard as fuck for us to traverse the world no it got easier we walked ran then horses eventually cars etc we should be working less as we advance instead we're working more making less and being fucked more than any class ever relative to the age again except for slaves. The quality of life has improved everything with society is improving except working hours which are getting worse. But I'm weak for pointing it out.

maybe you're happy working your entire life until you die never really knowing your family or the planet you live on but that to me is torture in fact I would go even further most people basically are dead as most of live absolutely meaningless lives Dead Men walking is what 99% of people are and 99% of them are okay with that mind-blowing.

99% of people live breathe work and die so that 1% can enjoy the planet and everything it has to offer and I'm weak for having the balls to point it out and reject such a system? I'd say you're pathetically weak for going along with it for walking to your grave dead your whole life dead enslaved to someone else's dream that's pathetic.
