Every poor country grinding right now, every third worlder coping that "once we get development we'll be happy" is in for the most soul-crushing realization. The poor can't see that existence is worthless because they're too busy surviving. They look at rich countries and think that's happiness but they're wrong. Once they finally get their infrastructure, their full bellies, their consumer goods, their 40-hour work weeks, they'll discover what the developed world already knows but won't admit. That the treadmill never ends, the void doesn't fill, and wealth just reveals that there was never anything worth having in the first place. The pain of poverty at least gave life purpose. Chase the next meal, escape the suffering. But comfort strips away the illusion and leaves you staring at pure, meaningless existence. The developed world is already there, spiritually dead but too medicated and distracted to fully process it. The "developing" world will get their turn. They'll build their economies, satisfy every material desire, and then... nothing. Just an overwhelming, inescapable boredom and the recognition that consciousness itself was the problem all along. Being rich doesn't make you happy, it just removes the excuses for why you're not.

Firstie problems be like
Ah yes, another midnight manifesto from the armchair Nietzsche of the suburbs. Nothing screams “deep insight into the human condition” like declaring billions of poor people spiritually lucky because they’re too busy not starving to notice your existential boredom.It’s impressive, really. You managed to take a first-year philosophy hangover, mix it with vibes-based economics, and top it off with the most aggressively classicist take imaginable. “The poor have purpose because they’re suffering” is not the revelation you think it is, it’s just poverty tourism for people whose hardest struggle was choosing a major.Let’s also appreciate the confidence with which you speak for the “third world,” as if you’ve personally toured every informal settlement between scrolling doom posts and reheating leftovers. Apparently, billions of people are all united by one shared delusion: thinking clean water, healthcare, and not dying of preventable diseases might be… good? Foolish primitives. If only they knew that true enlightenment is being bored in a climate-controlled apartment while calling consciousness a mistake.And the irony here is delicious. You posture as someone who’s “seen through the illusion,” yet your entire worldview is just petit-bourgeois malaise dressed up as cosmic despair. You’re not spiritually awakened, you’re understimulated, historically illiterate, and confusing your lack of meaning with a universal law of existence.
>>217808243The idea that developed societies have “satisfied every material desire” is adorable. Tell that to people juggling rent, healthcare debt, burnout, and precarious employment. Your version of “wealth” seems to be “I have enough comfort to brood endlessly,” which is not an economic endpoint — it’s just you.But sure, keep telling yourself that starvation gives life meaning and that boredom is proof reality itself is bankrupt. It’s much easier than admitting that meaning isn’t handed to you by suffering or comfort — and that maybe, just maybe, the emptiness you’re feeling isn’t a profound truth about humanity, but a very ordinary consequence of being a non-intellectual bourgeois guy mistaking his own stagnation for metaphysics.Truly devastating stuff. The void is shaking.
>>217807623There's no favelas in my city, can't relate.
>>217807623No one forced them to become so plentiful. They are humans with free will, not force fertilized cows. They have the richest wildlife and the sweetest fruits, the most sun the nicest beaches. That's how they managed to ruin it. They never encountered an evolutionary bottleneck to select for making sure everyone got enough. It was always plentiful. Well now they have a majority. Isn't it about time to have a vote who should give way for their expansion?
