The Illusions Of Social Hierarchy, And Why You Should Step Off The Ladder
Unless you can decide when you will die and even where you will go after death you are just as regular and vulnerable as the rest of us. So pipe the fuck down.
We are trained to compete with one another based on beauty, credit scores, college degrees, job positions, material possessions, romantic relationships and professional connections. We believe these factors give us value and status, as if they actually mean something. But in the grand scheme of things none of these things matter. Nothing you think gives you status actually gives you status. Status is matriculated through a series of channels, mainly bloodlines. And…the willingness to sacrifice your humanness to be a cold, empty, hard puppet with strings.
I have met some women who thought they were better than others due to superficial and dare I say idiotic factors like being gorgeous, or having a phat ass, or a few degrees, a nice body and some money in the bank. To that I say, join the club! Millions upon millions of women around the world have the same attributes. Only they have the common sense to grasp that being pretty and educated with a few dollars to their name doesn’t make them stand out in any way. It makes them…adults? It makes them…responsible? But powerful? Nah.
