But why wouldn't disenchantment towards the rat race lead us more towards a "I'm just not going to play the game and enjoy myself doing art or whatever" rather than a "maybe the current conflicts will explode spectacularly and destroy the status quo" mindset?
As mentioned, this seems to be more prevalent in people who are, objectively, well-off in the financial department, so it's not like they "hate" the system per se and could afford degrees of financial independence that many others will never be allowed to.
- jesuscript 4y agoYou have to play the game to understand how weird it is, even if the weirdness benefits you. There are financial constraints to being off the grid of the game. Even if I wanted to run off into the woods and live in a cabin, I don’t know if I could live off the current amount I have. So back to the grid, hence the resentment.
