Did Marcus Aurelius just told me to unalive myself?
Have you never heard of the concept of dying while you're still alive?

>>18522630He's saying if you cannot contribute or stay rational, you should exit from proper society. There used to be a common acceptance that if you become old and feeble, you should exit society as to not be a burden on the rest of the population. IE. Go live in a forest or shack with minimal subsistence, and leave the games and wealth to the young. The opposite of what boomers did to us.
>>18522904If people could just "exit" society and live peacefully in the forest, who would stay willingly in the normalcattle prison camp? Who would serve as the pawns for powerplayer psychopaths to play games with and whom would they milk to generate wealth?
