No, stopping requires your will. It's your decision. That's called "freedom" and it's an aspect of your life a feudal peasant wouldn't have.

I'm not trying to invalidate your suffering. You are trying to invalidate those people's suffering, by claiming their lives were just as easy as ours. Which they weren't. Those people went through shit we can't imagine.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
