Why do most people never question their lives?

Even on /lit/ the majority of users are philosophically a dead end, they have no interest in questioning anything substantive anymore if they ever even did. They're content to whine about politics, sport, entertainment, work. Even among my own family there's some reasonably intelligent people who just work, sleep, watch tv. I've never been able to turn my mind off like that, even from a young age. I've never stopped questioning the reality of life and what it's about, I just always knew it was never about being a wage slave consumer. But it's like people run on autopilot and any questioning they do lasts all of 5 minutes after an argument or on a particularly boring car ride.

I like to believe some of those "autopilot" people are actually deeper than that but just like you, believe nobody will understand them so they prefer to keep their mouths shut instead of trying to engage in an existential talk with others.
Of course I'm one of those I mentioned above

NEETS are generally autistic and/or insufferable, so they don’t generally mesh well with well-adjusted, working-class people. There are obviously exceptions

I go hiking and camping by myself most of the week to get away and think clearly, most people however spend all day working, eating and watching entertainment. THAT is why I'm comfortable saying I think more than they do.

>literally live off society’s work

No, I live off of inventor's ingenuity which created the technology we use everyday. 99% of people in what you call society are easily repleaceable automatons with room temperature IQ and I don't owe anything to them, since they do it for money and money they get.

I'm so tired of collectivist drivel that can't hold up in a debate.

Also
>dependent upon
Wrong. Empirical evidence says humans have lived before "societies" were ever formed. Therefore the wage drones are not conditio sine qua non to "live", therefore no "dependent upon".

But to entertain the thought, imagine that's right. Then, no one was given the choice to either be given these things by society or not. How could you ask me for repaiment on something you forced me to have and belittle me if I don't?

Would me injecting you heroin forcefully then asking you to pay for the dose have any logical sense? The most probable response would be fuck you.
