Hot take: ppl who grow up naturally competent or charismatic in the way (current) society likes end up getting “used” by the “system”Weirdos - who the system rejects early on - have a better chance of living on their own terms as adults https://t.co/iaMRWlMFVS


And the weirdos are still comparing themselves to Class President Popular Kid Steve, who is president of XYZ International & has a mansion but lives a life governed by money, status & norms

Should have phrased it this way: “Weirdos - who the system rejects early on - have a better chance of living on their own terms as adults…[provided they learn how to get resources & not get messed with]”Without these, I expect the average weirdo to still get pwned

@TylerAlterman excellence makes life on easy mode, but you simply cannot go in hard mode anymore. cannot live without the jet streams of society accelerating you in its specific ways https://t.co/ZM8Af0x5Y5
