    If I literally had that experience for my whole life until then, I’m pretty certain that I would end it. Even if I knew that I would get out somehow. I can’t even imagine how traumatizing it must be if you never experienced comfort and safety, for your entire life.

    Maybe watch Dominion if you can’t see my point.

      Its possible that if you’ve never experienced comfort and safety you wont know it exists and the suffering is just baseline and therefore normal and therefore basically fine.

      Unlikely, but possible. I’m just trying to hold onto any sliver of hope I can in such an awful world of man-made horror.

      How would you even know what you’re missing?

      I’ll watch Dominion, but in exchange you have to (re-)read Man’s Search for Meaning.
