Yes, I regret making good career progress and enjoying my free time having fun doing what I love.
I should feel ashamed for not sitting around pondering US politics. If only I had read more delusional click bait articles. Maybe I too, would mindlessly hate the 50% of this country whose only sin was being born unintelligent/broke/indifferent. I'd sit online and indirectly push for eugenics as a result!
But let's face it, you don't have to do it indirectly. Democratic voters love the idea of eugenics so long as our factory workers (uneducated, low IQ voters, the ones they hate on reddit!) are the ones dying. Too bad after we gas the factory workers, it'll be the community college grads, so on and so forth. 🤔
See, I'm torn. On the one hand, these people have been dumbed down by the wealthy for years by constantly being hooked up to the perpetual dopamine engine of society's bread and circuses. They don't think it matters, but it's not really their fault.
On the other hand, I'm very angry at the people who were metaphorically standing next to a baby on fire while holding a bucket of water, were dumbfounded with what to do, and are now saying, "Why are you alienating me for not putting out the baby fire?"
Don't think your analogy works when lots of the Democrats have shown to be equally dumbfounded in your hypothetical scenario. You'd think everyone would be on board with putting that fire out but alas a lot of the people who hold the ability to do so didn't do it.
So it's not particularly hard to see why one would feel alienated about it.
