The thing this is missing is that most people want others to suffer not simply because they happened to turn out fine, but because they believe that suffering **is the reason** they turned out fine. They see it as something that builds character.
Not saying their right, just saying you cant fix a problem by misunderstanding it.
@freemo @Jedigirl along that line, at the extreme end of things, there’s the utopia rat experiment where rats had everything handed to them and in fact dis not turn out fine.
As a society, we do need to aim toward fairness and better treatment of each other
But a bit of natural difficulty is also important.
A pro-suffering guy might be thinking he turned out fine and that rat study proves it. But i think there’s much more to it.
There is more than one rat experiment.. I had assumed he meant a different one than this. ::shrug::
