Yesterday I took a Political Compass Test and the question came up "Some people are naturally unlucky" and since I don't believe in magic, curses, karma or any of that I voted "Strongly Disagree" and moved on, but then I put some thought into it and had to change my answer to "Agree" and here's why.

When I think of someone who is naturally unlucky I'm not talking about someone who got cursed for breaking a mirror or and nonsense like that, I'm talking about someone who was born in unfortunate circumstances. Someone who was born in a poor family or has horrible parents, growing up in a bad area, having a physical and/or mental illness, or anything that negatively affects their life. I'm not talking about something that happens later in someones life, I'm talking about what they were born with since nobody can choose where they are born or what family they were born with, and bad thing that happen later in life are things that everyone has to deal with at some time or another.
Can these unlucky people get out of their situations with enough effort? Of course they can, but they're going to have it a lot harder than someone who was blessed to have been raised in a stable environment with money (doesn't have to be rich), with good parents and live in a good neighborhood.

So I don't think that being unlucky has anything mystical to it, it's just the unfairness of the world.

Up until very recently many men were been raised to not treat women as harshly as other men when they cross the line (being disrespectful, unreliable, verbally abusing or even hitting men). Chivalry taught men that the fairer sex was more “delicate” when it came to hostility including nasty language.

Now angry guys might lose it and attack with sexual insults (slut, whore, cunt, etc.). But how often do you hear men calling women words such as mother f*ckers, douche bags, piece of sh*t, etc? Every once is a blue moon a guy might call a girl a douchebag. But the other non sexual yet nastier insults not as much.

I had a former gal pal try to contact me on LinkedIn a few days ago. She had ghosted me without warning two years ago.
She sent a fake canned message like “hey how are you? I hope you are doing well during this time. Ya de yah”.

But being ghosted is one of the worse insults you can do to someone (she blocked me on social media). So after giving her a curt message I responded to her second canned message with “you know Mary you got a long ways to go if you want to make it up to me. You call yourself a alpha female (she really did say that) but in reality you are beta piece of sh*t. I think karma needs to knock you around a bit more into you come to your senses. Deep down I hope you change. But again you have a ways to go. Don’t ever contact me again”. I then blocked her.

Now what I said above is real out of character. But I took her message as fake bs ploy to placate her own guilty conscious. She wanted to feel better about herself but not apologize for what she did.

I would have reacted differently if she messaged me saying “hey Zach what if did a while back was totally wrong. I don’t know what I was thinking, but I wish I could of handled it better”. But she didn’t say that.

Anyway it felt good to call her a piece of sh*t. It does go against my upbringing, spiritual beliefs, etc. But covid-19 is giving me less patience.
