We all grew up reading books and watching movies and playing video games that instilled this false idea that we are the main character destined for greatness in life. In reality, unless you're over 6' with 130+ IQ, you're just meant to be a cog in the machine.

Of course, I understand that society as a whole exerts forces upon me that are not at all controllable. I always think back to Robespierre:

But in society, when the force of all is armed against only one, what principle of justice could authorize it to kill him? What necessity can absolve it? A victor who kills his captive enemies is called a barbarian! A grown man who kills a child that he could disarm and punish seems to us a monster! An accused man condemned by society is nothing else for it but a defeated and powerless enemy. Before it, he is weaker than a child before a grown man.

Many people are side characters in their own life, second fiddle to other men. You would know this.

Yeah. I used to think this and then I got one of those "Choose your own adventure" books. At that point I realized that I'm just a NPC wandering around in the elites' world.

That's illegal, and side characters should obey the law like good NPCs.

Everybody is the main character of their own shit, it's just that most people don't have an interesting story. Which is mostly good, if your life is interesting that's usually bad.

I'm not even a character at all. I'm just some guy in the background who keeps the scene from seeming too empty
