dostoevsky said if you gave people everything they wanted, cakes, entertainment and nothing to worry about except the continuation of the species, they’d start breaking things out of boredom

he was right

we got comfortable enough that people started manufacturing their own suffering and building identities around the invented problem, to the point where mutilation is seen as healthcare.
because a life without struggle felt like a life without meaning.
the idea of being broken gave them something to solve and someone to fight, an identity and a sense of community

but, once the problem gets “solved” nothing changes, obviously. the emptiness was there before the “problem” (it’s always there), and it’ll be there after. the cause of the problem is never fixed

these people never wanted to be fixed, they wanted to feel special
