>Everyone saw in my face evil traits that I didn’t possess. But they assumed I did, and so they developed. I was modest, and was accused of being deceitful: I became secretive. I had a strong sense of good and evil; instead of kindness I received nothing but insults, so I grew resentful. I was gloomy, other children were merry and talkative. I felt myself superior to them, but was considered inferior: I became envious. I was ready to love the whole world, but no one understood me, so I learned to hate. My colorless youth was spent in a struggle with myself and with the world. Fearing mockery, I buried my best feelings at the bottom of my heart: there they died.
if you have the self awareness to acknowledge things like this within your own character, but don't act to improve yourself accordingly and become a better person regardless of the circumstances leading you to a base existence, then you kind of forfeit the right to make and use such excuses, and it may even be safe to say you were never really going to be a good person to begin with
>>23822483Pechorin has sex, incel. He and you are not the same.
>>23822630Incels are the Byronic heroes of today.
>>23822483>The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth
>>23822538>what's that bro? you don't spend years in mental anguish rebuilding your entire personality? oof, sounds like you're a piece of shit buddy, not a good look
>>23822669skill issue
>>23822669i mean when you yourself acknowledge that your entire personality is being a piece of shit, then yea, it makes you a piece of shit when you consciously decide not to change it
>>23822483It should be noted that within the context of the novel Pechorin is pretty much bullshitting. What he says might be true, but he doesn’t actually care for any sympathy or deeper understanding. He is only saying it to manipulate someone and to make himself seem byronic, which is based.
>>23822718an ought does not follow from an is, retard, there's no logical justification to change anything once you have acknowledged it
