Notice how progress pictures disproportionately get to the front page of Reddit? Stories about single dads. Lots of drug addicts in particular. Fatties of all colours and creeds. Generally fuckups in life.
Why? Simple. People like looking down their noses saying "thank God my life isn't as fucked up as these failures". People love giving to charity because it makes them feel socially superior. Upvote, donate some karma. You go girl.
George Carlin said "the poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class". He left out that the poor are also fap material for middle class equality / social justice / snobbery boners.
Wanking your ego to whores, cucks, and trash does nothing for you. Stop reading them and thinking "at least my life is better".
Read about great leaders. Genghis Khan's story will teach you that your descendants will always find a way to fuck it up so leave your legacy by your actions. Alexander will remind you that good friends and good health are irreplaceable. Napoleon, now that is a failure worth reading about- you know you are at the top when everybody is baying for your blood. Read about Steve Jobs who made it big and fucked up his personal life.
At some point you will be able to read anything and evaluate it objectively. Before that point you must choose what you read. Learn your worth in the world. Stop getting high off sympathy and superiority.
Comfort breeds complacency. Stop comforting and start challenging yourself.
