If you have other games to play, then maybe you quit that easy, but when it comes to life this is your only game you have so you try harder! If it's too fucked up usually you haven't figured it out yet. So you keep trying until you figure something out. If you've tried everything you know of, but it's still fucked up, then you have to look for some help along the way. Sure you can quit, but it's not like you can go find another game. That's it! So quitting does you no good.
You mean that's what YOU do. No one is obliged to "try harder!" That's an imperative you've imposed, not nature. And how insulting: "If it's too fucked up usually you haven't figured it out yet." Tell that to the millions of people whose lives are shredded due to wars in their regions, government corruption that facilitates lack of food and potable water, rapes and brutalities from wandering gangs, abandonment after the death of parents...
And what evidence do you have that quitting does people no good? If the alternatives are sticking around and definitely experiencing pain, or quitting and possibly experiencing nothing--including pain, then quitting may indeed do someone good.
"Tell that to the millions of people whose lives are shredded due to wars in their regions, government corruption that facilitates lack of food and potable water, rapes and brutalities from wandering gangs, abandonment after the death of parents..." Well first off, you're taking it to an extreme because I don't get the feeling Ace09 was speaking in the same context. I do see what you're saying though and you are correct. Of course there will always be exceptions to the rule. Circumstances will always change based on the situation. For example, if somebody is terminally ill with Cancer with no chance to survive, then yes, I agree quitting would be a good thing to do rather than causing unnecessary suffering.
I feel that I have no hope left
