Discussion Is life a scam?

[Darkover]

Something is a scam when you first bought it, you thought of it as something good, but after a while, you get disillusioned really fast and realize you got scammed. You didn't get to even say yes to be born, so life is more like endless torture much like hell if you think of it. I think we're in hell already, it just goes by a different name called "life".

Procreation is a scam
Who benefits from the scam though? I guess the elite class, which gets a new worker drone, with the proud parents footing the bill to raise the child.
If you're not in the top 1% life is about being exploited — by employer, by politicians, by each other. It's grotesque.

Yes life is a scam.

I think only a minuscule percentage of humans really understand how unimaginably torturous life can get.

Most people have no idea that they and anyone can fall into a trap of extreme torture. And how that unbearable pain and suffering is so bad it makes everything else meaningless . there is nothing worth going through such extreme suffering

Life is a scam. Were parents more ignorant than us? Or was their life goal breeding? Or was they not using condoms for more pleasure? Or was the state brainwashed to produce workers? I don't know Whatever it is, we can't get away with it. Even this language and thought that we're talking about is learned or brainwashed by someone, and we don't know what will happen after death. We could end up with another scam
nevertheless, I ll have to CTB one day

Yes, life is a scam. Procreation is a massive pyramid scheme. People say that life is a gift but I think that this is a scam as I fail to see any gifts in life. The negatives outweigh the positives

How is it a scam? You have to fall for a scam to get scammed, life is forced upon us without our consent.

Maybe parents were scammed into procreating though.

How is it a scam?

to trick someone into believing something is better than it is and to deceive then

We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.

My life is a scam, I lost the life lottery I guess

I could've been born in a financially stable family in europe, America or east Asia, I could've had a father and siblings, I could've had enough money to travel, go camping, hiking, to wear whatever I want, I could've had the privilege to see my favorite artists in concerts, I could've had the privilege to be born in a country where women are treated as real humans.

But no, I get to live as a fatherless siblingless poor girl in a third world islamic country rotting most of the time in her bedroom, can't do anything that makes her happy, too poor to get a better life, and people irl treat her as an alien for not being a muslim.
