I don't know if I've done a complete 180 on that many things, with exception to the fact that I was a lib, because 1.) Everyone young with no money is lib on economic issues, 2.) It takes time/research to debunk academia on The Nigger Question

That's true of everyone. You get all these Biglaw Partners that say they don't care about money and just wish they were fisherman in Mexico while working an 80 hour week so they can get an extra million in their accounts.

Nothing in our “education” system really prepares you for how shitty life actually is. That should be the primary lesson - “steel yourself for what is coming”.

Or that our education system, with its curriculum and tests and essays, is just practice for rote, routine-based work that leads to, at best, the middle class. The real valuable lessons - starting your own business, developing scalable skills, etc - are served for the upper class private schools.

I wouldn't say school teaches you in any of the skills necessary to be successful in plaintiffs law, it just provides a means to get a degree and sit for the bar which prepares you for middle class.

Being a plaintiff's lawyers still requires you learn how to hustle, how to run a business, how to get and keep clients, how to speak to prole juries, etc.

LOL it’s not like Sidwell Friends or Phillips Exeter is teaching their Richie Rich students how to scale a business. The only reason it makes a difference is that it 1) screens for a min IQ threshold, so dumb rich kids aren’t welcome (see eg RSF) and 2) it’s one of the most valuable pools of social connections available on the entire planet. If you haven’t figured it out by now you’re dumb, but rich kids don’t succeed bc they learn some special secrets to success. They get plugged into networks of people who give them many more chances to fuck up and take many potential problems of headaches off their plates.

Ran here. Relatedly, I didn’t realize until I was a first year associate how little my parents and siblings understood about money and how silly it was for them to not grasp that paying 50k for ug with scholarships or 200k for lol school at sticker was a completely different life than the one they lived paying a small fraction of that for their own educations, even though my parents watched both my older siblings smash headlong into quarter life crises. None of them learned anything from it. At least I had the sense to go to a state flagship ug instead of a private ug at sticker like my siblings did. And I talked my parents into buying a rental house so they actually made money on my ug and there was 50k left in their 529 to help me pay for law school. But instead of them saying “we’re so thankful that you took a different path” they mostly bitched that maintaining a house was a hassle (my hassle as they lived out of the country and I was the landlord for all my friends who lived at my place) and resented that I didn’t go to a college that was more fun to brag about with their friends.

My parents still seemed puzzled as to why I don’t like my job. They tend to offer all manner of unhelpful advice (“just do something you love,” or “why not go back to school?”). Then they shake their heads at how much their property taxes have gone up as the value of their real estate skyrockets, and how a gallon of milk costs $8.

I understand that it is frustrating, but you're parents are never going to see you as an equal. At least not until they are entirely dependent on you and you're wiping their ass or whatever.

You have grown up, but they will never accept that you are an adult or that you are equal to them. It's something with the parental mind. Those roles are hard to break out of.

I don’t see myself as their equal either. That’s not the point at all. The point is that they are money retards/completely bought in and still buy in to the notion that academic prestige is a commodity worth hundreds of thousands of dollars even though no one their age ever had to pay even 10% of that amount on an inflation adjusted basis to go to any of those prestigious schools and they know many people in their own family that did pay that much to go to prestigious schools and they ended up MC/UMC normies anyway. The notion that class is really what drives the success and opportunities that are available to (some) people who attend prestigious colleges and grad schools is a thought they will not accept in their brains. They are religiously devoted to a concept of America as a meritocracy despite ample evidence to the contrary literally right before their eyes. I just wish they were less stupid about that.

Your parents don't see themselves on an equal playing field and because of that they're not going to come around to your point of view.

It's like that inevitable stage where you start to butt heads with someone in power at work. That person isn't going to like the intrusion. They will demand fierce loyalty and punish any that don't show it. But if you show loyalty, and bend the knee, the boss man will look down on you.

Parents are living their own lives and are on their own trajectory and they're never going to listen to their kids. How could they? They lived through the tantrums and the ridiculous kid stuff.

I didn’t expect there to be so many pedo priests and for various Cardinals and several Popes to have all gotten their hands dirty in the coverups. I wouldn’t have done much different but I would’ve spent a lot less time feeling conflicted and guilty in my 20s about lapsing as a Catholic.

Cardinal Law was like the Harriet Tubman of child rapists for decades. Ratzinger and his boy were JP2’s designated child rape clean up crew. You’re saying that’s bc of Bella Dodd? Admit to yourself that you don’t want to face what happened. You feel the hand of satan on your shoulder when your mind contorts and you bleat out “the commies did it to us” when you know how insufficient that is as an answer. You are helping the child rapists avoid consequences for their crimes by repressing your thoughts and feelings about this.

And that’s all before we get to the amount of your tithes, my tithes and my parents’ that ended up in the pockets of biglawyers who were formulating bankruptcy strategies to make sure the victims couldn’t be compensated. The US Catholic Church is like a massive real estate mogul’s empire with a huge superfund liability that it’s trying to avoid, except that the super fund sites are thousands and thousands of orafices of children.

yes.

if you are interested in how this all happened, michael davies' talks on the roots of modernism covers a lot of this, but they're hours long.

father isaac reylea's talks also cover a lot of this as well. if you are truly interested.

with that said, you know enough from this post to know that the spotless bride of christ is not the same as the men who are tasked with administration.

Yeah, same here. It took me a long time to realize that many people voted for the kind of community they want, not for government bennies. It also took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that receiving government entitlements doesn’t obligate you to vote for the candidate who supports the entitlement.

I’d look at a bunch of NAFTA-impoverished trailer trash whose skills were rendered uneconomical and were now competing against illegal immigrants and think: “can you believe these welfare receiving republican hicks vote AGAINST their financial interest?”

it pisses me off that so many people still don't get this. so many people honestly cannot even understand that others may vote for policies that will not benefit them, and may in fact hurt them. but do so because it's good for society as a whole.

so many people are locked into the mindset that they should vote for the biggest handouts to their tribe as they can. it's a great example of how this country is a sinking ship and that everyone is trying to grab whatever they can however they can before it collapses.

I also thought way too highly of teachers and professors as an 18 year old. This is really just a specific flavor of the comments above ITT about how so many people are so disappointing and dumb. But teachers and professors in particular do a very effective job at convincing UMC kids they they are 1) more well read and cultured than most adults and 2) noble because they didn’t go chase the highest possible salary. That was all horseshit bc 90+% of them were just regurgitating some shit they heard or read somewhere else and try to pass it off like it’s this genius perspective they developed on their supposed area of expertise. And all of them to a person get off on feeling smug about not having a job where they have to worry about a boss or quarterly earnings and can LARP like they live a life of the mind when in reality they’re just child care with some extra credentials.

i agree insofar as i was lucky to have some great teachers. but as the composition and belief systems of the average teacher moves sharply to the left on many issues, i guess i have less faith in the institution. (or, it's indoctrination regardless, and now the bad kind). i expect you can still find classic liberalism in private schools or an otherwise self-selecting group

The lab leak stuff.

The trans stuff.

As the US has become more competitive, I don’t think there is any profession that has fallen from grace more spectacularly than physician. As recently as a few decades ago, it attracted actual thoughtful people to the profession, eager to help people, push the boundaries of medicine, etc. Now, it is basically just a super-protected profession with a large salary, which super-study tiger parents push their passionless kids into. They just want a safe job that pays high enough to not be viewed as a failure.

Biggest one of all by far is I wish a middle aged dude I respected (but not my dad) had sat me down and given me a better version of the “fuck a lot of women” speech that Alan Arkin gives to Paul Dano in Little Miss Sunshine. The main issue with the speech in the film is that he does an insufficient job pointing out how quickly teen girls bodies become dumpy shrew bodies and how much less attractive women are by the time they hit 30. I spent hundreds of hours jerking off to big titted blonde bimbos in college bc I got sufficiently brain poisoned to believe that a 25 year old skank who looks like a stripper is hotter than a 19 year old thin, mousey nerd girl who fumbles her words when she talks to you after class. Not that I didn’t want to fuck the mousey nerd girl, but I definitely thought she was always available whenever I wanted to pursue it, and that was some degree of too easy access and over familiarity but also hugely influenced by how much the porn explosion of the late 90s and early 00s broke my brain.

I got laid plenty given how stupidly I went about it. But I should’ve fucked like 20x as many girls and several that were extremely hot if I’d just kept it simple and realized that getting laid in college is awesome and you will still think about it a lot 20+ years later and those years are short and you need to make the most of them. But I don’t blame boomers I blame the Jews et. al. who managed to turn the Internet into 75% porn by 1997.

Another one: women my age will be well suited to/enthusiastic about becoming wives and mothers and raising their families with a loving husband. If you brought 18 year old me in a time machine to spend a week in 2022 there’s zero chance I get married or ever really conceive of it as a desirable option. I’m glad mostly that I was deluded in this way because I likely wouldn’t have my kids or the role in their lives that I do today, but if I knew then what I know now the choice is simple and obvious. Marriage is for dudes who are already rich and women who sign prenups and are down to SAHM and focus on children, and that likely means they need to be born outside the US.

I thought people spent money according to their income/wealth, i.e. people in the financial 1% bought the top 1% expensive goods, people in the 70th percentile bought 70th percentile things, stayed at 70th percentile hotels etc. Then I found out that broke bums were the ones scraping together money for Gucci and millionaires wear ten-year-old Wranglers

This is reiteration of what others here have said, but it still routinely astounds me today / I haven't quite adjusted to it, so I'll say it again: how absolutely fucking useless and stupid a great number of people are. A full third of our population is incapable of understanding cause and effect, low time preference / delayed gratification, hypotheticals or conditionals, or basic reasoning. I didn't understand this until I was 23 or 24. I'm still working to grasp it. It blows my mind at least once a week.

I also used to trust institutions / academia / "expertise". I don't anymore, for obvious reasons.

These two changes have altered the way I see everything in society:

- elected government becomes national suicide

- all commons become tragedies

- institutions are all either inept or malevolent

- popularity signifies only appeal to the greatest number of retards

And so forth. Contempt for my fellow man has never been higher, and it's only rising.

I didn't understand the complex veering into bleeding-edge synthetic debt structures that you could get yourself involved with through the wrong country club initiation. Of course I knew about lump sum payment approaches, one dollop of funds and you're playing carefree rounds at the Breakers or assuming your seat at Holden. I wasn't so jejune to not already be aware of amoritized options at places like McCrasey's or the Sling Club in Hong Kong, where your share of equity would slowly rise as you accumulated an increasingly large principal buy-in. I thought I knew how the game was played and I showed it with my cocksure attitude as I swaggered up to the initiation round at Beckingham's, signing papers with a spit-in-the-face-of-death fearlessness, thinking the whole thing would culminate in a quick wire transfer and that would be the end of it, green jacket, comfortable suite on the fourth floor whenever we were in town, limitless rounds on well-manicured greens with sharp caddies trained by the likes of Gilmore and Melick. I look back on that signing day as my first encounter with the Devil's Pen. The papers, you see, securitized my possessions and family members into a third-order dark pool that ran off the shelf bioderivatives outside Singapore. When I presented the structure to one of my closest forensic accountants, a good man with a family and farm in the march of Devonshire named Thomas Wills, his first words were "breathtaking, simply breathtaking. The boldness of the invention." There I was at the sacrificial altar of this pathbreaking financial exploration, watching my four dogs being biotagged in my London townhouse by inscrutable miniature men in dark coats whispering mentions of "synthetic porzopol inversion exchanges" and "Richter's Method of Monetized Rooting." I was in over my head.

18 was a significant age to my generation. That's when you became old enough to be conscripted into the army to kill Asians in Vietnam. Keep the yellow peril far away from our shores. Keep the dominoes upright. Kill a Commie for Christ was the Zeitgeist's slogan. That's one of the things I found out people were lying about. Also noticed the guy whose mother was on the draft board never served.

The extent to which everything is agenda driven. You assume that you're in school and they're teaching you so that you get an education and do well in life. Total bullshit. They're promoting various agendas they support. "Everyone should go to college!" They support those agendas because they were hired to support those agendas by bigger fish. Like drug dealers start in Latin America and end with the street kid selling drugs on the street, you get Soros pushing everything down to the teachers.

I also have massively embraced the fact that history is driven by individuals and not larger groups. Because, as others have noted, 99% of people are lemmings and NPCs. That means that someone like Soros can have a tremendous amount of power in society.

Many elites are legitimately evil people.

Lots of good answers ITT, only one I would add is (sadly) not understanding how 18, heading into college (or perhaps a little before, picking a college) is the peak of how many doors you have open. At pretty much every moment after then, any decision you make re: education or career will shut doors, often permanently. Older generations seemingly had a lot more flexibility to float between professions/careers whereas now, particularly after the GFC, ONE | WRONG | MOVE is much more a thing.

Many of these can be condensed: I thought [females / POCs / other people] were just like me inside, but found out [women / POCs / NPCs] have radically different software and I cannot simply project my "rationality" onto them.

This plays out in classic XO coming of age revelations:

1. Holy shit, women are entirely foreign creatures, who do not act rationally, who do not mean what they say or say what they mean, and whose actions and choices are incomprehensible to me!

2. Holy shit, blacks (for example) are not just whites with dark skin, held back by some irrational hatred of dark skin!

3. Wow, NPCs exist and I could spend a century arguing with them and get nowhere. They might agree and the next day return completely to the irrational conclusion

Its the prime lib fallacy -- every, deep down, is equal. Smart kids like young XOers fall for it and presume everyone is just like them

Update after reading thread.

I was content with the amount of sex I was getting with no effort and so didnt put in any effort to really fuck a lot of chicks. Regret that.

That said, I had LTRs all throughout high school and college, but even then I knew I was a fucking idiot for doing so.

Small stuff: I foolishly believed that little cars that zoom around were cooler than pickup trucks.

Big stuff: everything. I mean everything. I believed a girlfriend/ wife should be your best friend, I believed that a college degree/ law degree were the keys to happiness, I believed that a 200k income was "rich," I believed that my best friends truly loved me and had my back, I believed that getting drunk was the same as being happy, I believed that fucking a lot of women brought happiness, I thought that buying & acquiring things brought happiness, I thought that my father's insane work schedule was normal, etc. etc.

Basically, my entire worldview at 18 with almost no exceptions was based upon falsehoods and left for a very hard education in my 20's and early 30's.

Some of the deviation here is situational, right? You have a very specific set of facts with your wife but do you disagree that wife as your best friend is ideal? $200k income being rich is based on the perspective of a single 18 year old 20+ years ago. At that point it actually was a lot of money. We lived on a fraction of that. When you're an adult with a wife and kids and a house after decades of inflation $200k is a really small income.

i thought that the internet and unlimited access to information would lead to hyper logical, fact based society where it would be impossible for fake news and lies to exist. i also thought that the internet would unshackle people from the censorship and restrictiveness of traditional media and communication, and that it would usher in a new world of unlimited free speech and conversation. and i thought that the brightest and most well informed opinions and discussions would naturally rise to the top and be the most popular and influential.

at 18 I thought race was only about skin color. Only in my 30s did I begin to understand evolution and multiregional creation.
