A loss is not a win. It does not matter if JFK died at 8 A.M. or 9 A.M..

It does not matter how the pyramids were built when you're not planning on building one yourself.

It matters when the poor die, when your community makes itself go extinct, when you treat your neighbor not like you want to be treated.

Divided we are the best, alone, burning out, knowing better.

We're better so much more good.

You lost me here. Can you expound a little?

Yep. The people of Boston have been crying into their beers for two days since the "Ice-Cats" took them out.

What plebs don't understand is "the best" have failed more times than anyone here has attempted to learn or achieve something. For every success, a thousand angry sleepless nights.

At least someone learned a thing from this semi coherent thread premise. You're welcome, mr/mrs pleb. 🥂

And yet 2+2=4 and competitions have first and last place and some lives matter immensely more than others and not all cultures are equal.


Honestly this reads like a drunk chat bot that’s reading Chinese fortune cookies.

And we could be better, so much more good, without this failure to really understand the best of the plebs. So uncalled for!

The best tend to win the worst prices, that's what the bourgeoisie doesn't understand. May I present you with a pitchfork full of doubt?

It does not matter what words are used if they are silent to the speaker.

You're saying Embrace Ignorance, only in more words, right?

“The best” is high in ambiguity.

Strive on being the best version of yourself every day by being a better version of yourself each day.
Meditate/reflect/write every evening before bed without fail by assessing your day. What was good? what was bad? What could have been done better?

its OK to be the best in/at ‘something’ as long as your reasons are noble, for example if you wish to challenge yourself and your limits. Or if you are doing it to provide for your family, or most importantly if you love it.

Sorry rambled

I say this often; we are spread out on the world map. We can only do so much for our spheres of influence, essentially our own neighborhood. Action, not likes.

As a life-long athlete, the best don't always win. That's why the race is still run and the game is still played. The best may not be the best on any given day even when they are the best most every day. No one knows that better than a competitor.

haven't you heard in new math 2+2=5, just like a man can become a woman now a days. it's some of that new fangled logic that's going round.
