    From everything I’ve seen, the modern expectation of what it means to “grow up” is just validating and taking ideological ownership of the corrupt, exploitative systems of the people that fucked everything up to begin with. This expectation is largely pushed by the exploited, beaten dog victims of those systems, as misery loves company.

    That’s gonna be a no from me, dawg. If you want to spend most of your waking life self-flagellating for sociopathic profiteers in hopes you’ll become one of their favorites, and subsisting for decades saving to finally enjoy life as a half blind, half deaf withered husk with 3 marbles left rolling around upstairs, if you make it that far, knock yourself out, grown up.
