That’s for you to answer for yourself.

The original statement is a framework, or a formula like a+b=c. You define what kind of life is “worthwhile” and what the “system” is. You plug in your own values. If a system doesn’t align with the life you want - whether you’re coerced into it or not - you don’t have to support it. The logic is about your agency. If you’re stuck in a system you didn’t choose, the question is: What can you do to change your situation? What kind of a sub-system can you adopt? The statement doesn’t demand loyalty. It’s about recognizing what truly supports the life you want and acting on that - whether that means surrendering, adapting, resisting, or leaving. It’s always about your judgment.

No, i’m just saying that you’re executing the cycle op is talked about either way. Up to you to do what you want with that.

if you don’t find that kind of life worth living, stop supporting the system. if you support a system that enables you to use drugs and listen to really old music, then i guess you find it worth living for.

What you’re saying doesn’t contradict OP?
