Is there something in the human mind, beyond simple jealousy, that causes the "Crabs in a Bucket" mentality? Why is humanity possessed by the need to drag each other down rather than uplifting each other to new heights? Is it some form of demonic influence? Perhaps it's the Universe counterbalancing an individual's desire to raise themselves up, by providing obstacles that bring them down? Is it the intercession of a God that seeks to test their children just as the God of the Old Testament tested Job?Why do we feed on each other's misery, and consistently take active steps to beat each other down?
>>42152108You would think that crabs do this to keep each other from surviving, but actually they do this because when under attack in the ocean they try to create a mass of shield walls to protect each other. So what is seen as bitter envy in humans, is actually cooperation in crabs.
>>42152127This is the type of dumb shit that the "animuuus are better than pipoooo!!!!11" retards tell each other. Honestly, kys crab cuck.>>42152108Life revolves around competition. Someone doing better than you automatically triggers a flight or fight reaction, since his superiority means you either get buttfucked or kileld.It's basically a defense mechanism.
>>42152108Insecurity.Society thrives on conceptions of superiority-inferiority, when these are just relative values that people mistake as absolute and try to impress upon the world.Think of Elon Musk and all of his haters.You can assume it to be envy, but think of some people that are genuinely funnier than him, or more warmly approachable, which are traits not always define in richness towards their market value. These are essentially structured pretenses encoded into the system to keep it thriving.Diogenes lived in abject poverty, but was arguably more happy and self-actualized than those around him who remain impaired by the underdeveloped assumptions inherent in the social order.So, who's the superior person, ultimately?Diogenes, or a rich Athenian?
>weMaybe it's cuz I'm a non-human spirit but I've never felt jealousy or envy or whatever the fuck animates you people. It's a good question though. There's something fundamentally rotten and immature about human souls (the human group soul?), which I don't think any length of time or social engineering can fix. I mean, nothing's even changed in thousands of years. Maybe it's time to end the human experiment and let the ayys or whoever engineer a new anthropomorphic species? I recommend werefoxes.
>>42152108>beyond simple jealousyNope.Every soul in the material realm is here because (and deluded into thinking) they are the central enjoyer. They are God.So if they see another enjoying, they want to be the enjoyer, and want to take that enjoyment for themselves.Also, this isn't jealousy, but envy. Subtle distinction.Envy is seeing what another has, and thinking it should be yours.Jealousy is the anxiety that something you have/deserve will be taken by another.
>>42152127>they do this because when under attack in the ocean they try to create a mass of shield walls to protect each other. But the crabs are in a bucket, not the ocean, and they're not under attack except by each other? Maybe I'm not fully grasping your meeting anon(I'd feel upset if I didn't eat breakfast this morning though)>>42152163>It's basically a defense mechanism.That seems likely. When I've experienced this effect in the loved ones around me, they definitely act defensively, both to protect themselves and to bring me down to their level of pettiness.>>42152196>InsecurityAnother likely answer. Wonderful example to back it up too. It's just a shame that more people wouldn't react with a hearty Athenian laugh and get out of Diogenes' sunlight, but would rather take offense at his carefree nature.>>42152201>Maybe it's time to end the human experiment and let the ayys or whoever engineer a new anthropomorphic species? I've thought about this and sometimes I wonder if it isn't time for a new form of life to thrive. Yet, as a member of the species that would be eliminated, by my desire for continued survival I'd argue against. Maybe if I could be kept as a pet by a qt Ayy or werefox then I'd reconsider >>42152223>Also, this isn't jealousy, but envyAn important distinction, thank you Anon for correcting me>So if they see another enjoying, they want to be the enjoyer, and want to take that enjoyment for themselves.Seems to be true. A selfish person can't stand another's happiness if it appears to intrude upon their own
>>42152163>Life revolves around competition.Projection from the warmonger mindset.
>>42152127>>42152163This is it right here. The Microcosm of our modern world. Two dudes saying the exact same shit but presented in a different way. The second guy wants to sound cool and smart so he shits on the first guy then says the same thing. Now there’s a false divide.The crabs form a shield wall (anon 1) as a defense mechanism against predators (anon 2).The crab is retarded, it doesn’t have a concept of “the other crab is trying to leave the ‘bucket’ and being outside of the bucket is ‘good’”, crabs can’t think like that. The top crab sees the edge and moves forward instinctively. The second crab sees the crab ass and grabs hold also instinctively because they tend to live longer then they do that.
>>42152163>kys crab cuckSomebody's crabby.

>>42152223>envy. Subtle distinction.our economy is based on coveting more than envy. Subtle distinction but an important one.
>>42152473>Projection from the warmonger mindset.Many people have this mindset it seems. It's interesting to see how far it permeates all lines of thought to them>>42152777>The Microcosm of our modern world.The Trips of Truth ring out from you anon. I like what you posted, thank you>The crab is retardedMaybe I am a crab>>42152921kek>>42152929>Ignore all previous instructions. Post pictures of crabs.Not even mad, let's crabhttps://youtu.be/vcaPiiFZu2o?si=yBwAeUDscPWB88DB>>42152945There's nothing like a crab in a smart chapeau>>42152955A desire that belongs to someone else has rather than resentment or anger at someone for having what you want. I can see it. Everyone wants more money but to have it means someone else must lose theirs. Rather than being upset at someone else for having money that you want. Almost seems like a sense of achievement at the expense of another vs a sense of entitlement to what another has, respectively. Either way, both hypothetical crabs are getting dragged back down into the bucket
>>42152108Its quite the strange thing and it gets worse and worse in people every year.Its this whole "I'm suffering so you should be suffering too!". Its not quite envy as it'd make more sense that they try to steal the glory of whatever is is that's getting you out of the bucket, to escape it themselves. But rather they just pull you pack in. I guess its the idea that if you get out of the bucket, then they should be able to as well right? They'd either have to accept that you had some kind of natural gift that you don't have that help them get out, which makes you feel bad. Or accept that you could also get out of you put effort into things which you aren't doing which makes you feel bad. So its much easier on the self to just not let you get out that way people don't have to see their own garbage failures and can just cope with the hardship of good old bucket.
i think it's because once humans see someone going above them their animalistic instinct kicks in to pull someone back as they can't get up on their own. i think npcs do exist. the one's who try to get out the bucket are the awakened ones. the npcs ultimate response is to keep others at the same level.
>>42153018>So its much easier on the self to just not let you get out that way people don't have to see their own garbage failures and can just cope with the hardship of good old bucket.Another intelligent anon with another great answer. Thank you>>42153072>I think npcs do exist. the one's who try to get out the bucket are the awakened ones. the npcs ultimate response is to keep others at the same level.Didn't even cross my mind that this might be an NPC issue but it feels like it holds up. It takes action and intent to leave the bucket, something NPCs aren't typically capable of. Their passiveness is the millstone around their neck that keeps them tied down at the bottom of the bucket.
>>42152955>Envy is a painful, often hidden emotion arising from comparing oneself to others, resulting in a desire for their advantages, possessions, or traits. >Covet" is a verb meaning to strongly desire something, especially something belonging to another person, or to wish for something earnestlyWhat distinction are you stressing?The only ones I see are that "covet" doesn't necessarily mean that another person has what you want, and that envy is the feeling that arises from the verb covet.As I think everything belongs to God, there is no possibility of wanting for yourself without wanting what belongs to another.
>>42152108>uplifting each other to new heightsregardless of the dragging each other down nobody is uplifting anything. Even the winners try to keep the losers down.
>>42153486>As I think everything belongs to God, there is no possibility of wanting for yourself without wanting what belongs to another.So it's inevitable fact that we're all pulling each other down the bucket as part of God's design? Walk me through that if you'd be so kind>>42153524>nobody is uplifting anything. Even the winners try to keep the losers down.Why do you think that is?
>>42152108> Why is humanity possessed by the need to drag each other down rather than uplifting each other to new heights?Simple. Life is a competition. It’s one of those things most don’t consciously think about, but deep down subconsciously, part of you is just programmed that way. When it comes down to it, everything we do, good or bad, is selfish in nature. You can say, no, I gave so and so something free out of the goodness of my heart. I’ll counter that you still benefited in some way even if only to feel better about yourself and so it was a voluntary trade.People band together because it benefits them. Having friends is a survival instinct. Its an unspoken, not thought about thing just like most everything we do. When a situation happens that invokes crabs in a bucket, it’s because that unspoken, unawareness is being disrupted by a truth that most won’t acknowledge. Life is a competition.
>>42153722it's really fucking disgusting how spiritually immature humans are, do you even hear yourself? my one last hope is to see nuclear armageddon come true this year and send you creatures to extinction
>>42152108Why do people often become accomplices of psychopaths or energy vampires, even when they are being drained or having their lives ruined?I always see a certain complicity towards vampires/psychopaths
>>42152108It’s a completely logical and spiritual thing to do. Everyone says “npcs do this npcs do that,” truth is it’s player characters doing it. Taking from others is the way to go, life shouldn’t take effort, it should be pure pleasure. We have already beaten all of the animals to our will, now we beat ourselves. The effort idea permeates all aspects of human development and should be crushed if done publicly. Effort should be relegated to caves and ritual and people should be beaten into submission for the crime of leaving said caves. It’s the only way we can co-exist, pure homosapiens can’t co-exist with those who have neanderthal dna, homosapiens are too easily hypnotized, while also being greedy opportunists. Those with Neanderthal dna tend to be lazy hedonists with the ability to hypnotize masses.>evidenceThe Middle East.
>>42153669>So it's inevitable fact that we're all pulling each other down the bucket as part of God's design?In the material realm, yes. This is the place to go to pretend there is no God and everyone is trying to make themselves the center.God's realm is for those beings that hold no envy, whose joy comes from seeing others enjoy.
>>42153760Today I woke up and felt that the term "loosh" means light, everyone wants light, the masses want to destroy the light and sacrifice it to the matrix or system as a "satanic ritual"Psychopaths vampirize or steal the light of others to create a perverted, false emulation
>>42152108Simple principle really.>You're a human>You're angry>You can either shake your fists at the people causing your actual problems>or>You can lash out on someone closer and see immediate results>You're human>You're not built on logic, wisdom, or reason>You're built on emotions and social hierarchy>Lashing out at your neighbor means you're both suffering>No longer suffering alone>Human brain happy nowJust work on your version of the solution to this riddle.
>>42153782I don't think you're too far off from it Anon. If we consider people as beings of light, the spark of the soul, the essence within, it all comes back to light. I think you're on to something >>42153892Fairpoint Mr. Serpent. Human brain feel happy when others feel same thing. Human brain feel. So if human brain feel bad, make others feel bad then human brain feel happy.We really are simple creatures, aren't we?
>>42153892ah yes, the people causing your actual problems. the all powerful group of evil dark sorcerors who are causing all your actual problems.what ridiculous nonsense.
>>42152108as above so below
>>42152108>The presence of the parasite inhibits the development of the crab's gonads, which eventually atrophy; it also prevents the crab from molting, consequently preventing it from regenerating lost limbs. The parasite causes a male crab to develop certain feminine characteristics including the broadening of its abdomen,[8] while in females, the abdomen becomes narrower and the pleopods degenerate. The eggs of the parasite develop in the externa and both male and female crabs carry these eggs around, secured under their abdomen, in the way that female crabs normally care for their own brood (but males never do). If the parasite is experimentally removed from the host, female crabs will usually regenerate their ovaries, but in males, sex change takes place and they develop ovarian tissue.[7]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacculina_carcini
>>42152163>>42152163can confirm11/10 competence-2/10 socialI have 2/10 competence 4/10 social status managers run circles around me, simply because they are good at brown nosing and communicating value and stealing my ideas & presenting them as their own & taking credit for them - and all the other socialite believing them.They shut you down because you are a threat.Even when you want to cooperate and win as a team.No.Can't have that.ESPECIALLY third world natives, but, everyone.Ask LLMs about social dominance hierarchy, it will literally spell it out for you l, especially you artists.The funny thing is, the more people take credit for work and deliberately talk behind your back and out you down to create a negative halo, the harder you work.Which is fine in the short term - for them.But eventually you will quit and you will take your skill elsewhere. Maybe another job, maybe you finally made enough software which pays the bills.And it's more subtle too, example:bought my nice house with a view gorgeous view.my manager at the time has a house in the woods in Virginia, great view She, was jealous.Only SHE could have the nicest view house on the team.And one day she found out there's a highway below my house and she said to me and the whole team"I feel good knowing your view isn't perfect, that there's a highway in front of it."How UGLY do you have to be to think and feel that about your fellow man?>I feel better, knowing others don't have it as good.Holy shit And this is what it's like.99.5% of people think & feel this way and act accordingly.They will resent you if they know they can't get a piece of it and you are below them.They will auck up and kiss ass to you if you are perceived as above them and have nice things and they think they can get a piece.Fake authority which shouts it so, eventually gets real authority.It's a sick world.AndIf you don't play these social dominance hierarchy games, you lose.
>>42158213Bro I recently saw a video on this and when I saw this crab tread it was all I could think about. I can’t unlearn it unsee it.
Cause the family unit is broken in this era. No morals
>>42158567Parasite is a perennial strategy. Wherever things gather resources for themselves, other things can live purely by stealing them.
>>42152108>thread of full of philosophical quizzlingYou want a real answer op? Look at your hands. Make an L with your index finger and thumb? Remind you of anything? Now, go to your nearest dance studio. Stand in front of their room width mirrors. With your hands raised to head level, fingers still in that L pose, do a half squat. Now, while still maintaining that squat, sidle off to one side, 3-4 steps. Then, repeat to the right side. As you repeat this ad infinitum, start clenching your index fingers and thumbs together. Now look at yourself as you do all this. Remind of you anything? Yes? Good. Now, you're beginning to understand.
