If you play a multiplayer game, and lose, who is the author of your defeat? (self.asklemmy)

Is it the other players, because they beat you?

Is it you, because you chose to play the game?

Is it the game manufacturer?

My parents, for bringing a loser into this world

I've been told I should appreciate my parents for the non consensual wage slavery they chose for me. All to pay crippling living expenses that escalate despite the wealth of knowledge humanity has accumulated and the never before seen technological progression

Thanks mom and dad. Consider shooting up drugs for your hit of feel good brain chemicals next life and leave me out of it.

The vasectomy was the best thing i ever did for my unborn children. This pain of existence will end with me. Rest easy kids, you will not suffer these fools. You will not suffer this way of life.

Assuming your kids would be just as miserable as you is absurd.

Not really.

'Mood disorders' are highly heritable. Poor economic circumstances are highly heritable. Unhappy people who have children rarely cite them as the cure to their unhappiness. It's very likely that, if an unhappy person had kids, they'd be unhappy too. Not a given, but more likely than not.
