/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Individuals internalise societies failure, as a media chorus excoriates them over what they should have done differently. They jump to meet shifting goalposts; they express gratitude for their own mistreatment: their years at school, their parent-backed devotion, their hope for a better future that never arrives.
And when it does not arrive, and they wonder why, they are told they were stupid to expect it. They stop talking, because humiliation is not a bargaining chip. Humiliation is a price you pay in silence - and with silence.
People can always make choices. But the choices of today are increasingly limited. Survival is not only a matter of confidence, it is a matter of mentality - of not mistaking bad luck for bad character, of not mistaking lost friends for friends that were never really there.
You are not your job. But you are how you treat people.
So what can you do? You can work your hardest and do your best. You can organise and push for collective change. You can hustle and scrounge and play the odds.
But when you fall, know that millions are falling with you. Know that it is, to a large extent, out of your hands. And when you see someone else falling, reach out your hands to catch them.
