Watching videos like this always feels so surreal to me. All these people walking around in a city that looks like it was ripped straight from a pipe dream like there's nothing special because they're just used to this, but this city is unlike anything I've ever seen or will ever see in my life. We look the same, act the same, walk the same, but their lives are practically in another dimension from mine and i don't think either of us will ever truly grasp the distance between our lives. They don't even know how special it is nor the fact 99% of the world looks nothing like this but to them it's daily life.


It gets even more strange when i think of how I'll likely never visit much less get to live anywhere like that in my short existence on this earth before my mind is dragged back to the void we spawn from and then It'll be nothing forever. What turn of chance decreed that those people be born in a fantasyland while others are forced to live their entire existence in a wartorn miserable hell like South Sudan? What about all the souls born before and condemned to eternal misery in prehistory? Is it completely random or is there some planner out there doing this? I'll probably never know before i die. Strange feeling.

being born where you're born isn't "chance"

I highly doubt anyone's chosen to be born in Masristan or India much less the Congo. Please explain that, Sven.

This explains how the flesh puppet i inhabit was formed but "I" am not the flesh puppet i am (something) inside the puppet that's yet to be pinpointed. I am my own consciousness. If "I" was magically isekai transported to another flesh puppet it would still be me. You'll have to answer what consciousness or a "self" is but no one has managed to do that so far.

Idk about the souls part but just pull out a knife on someone and see how they beg and plead. There are definitely real people inside the folks you see outside

Nigga a plane ticket costs more than 2x the monthly salary of a medical doctor here.

Work for an year saving as much as you can and then try to emigrate there.
You seem already capable with English.

>We look the same, act the same, walk the same
you might be westernized, educated and overall sentient, but the most of your compatriots are not

crazy, I have been having pretty similar existential thoughts today

wonder what's like to live in a third world shithole. here everybody complains about everything and yet I can live my whole life with some shitty 9 to 5 and nothing bad will ever happen to me. I got free healthcare, affordable housing, I can buy everything I could possibly need, I lack no essentials, I am free of worries. I live in a safe place that is cleaned every other day. we take everything for granted and yet we live like kings compared to the rest of this cursed world.
