Cowardice is Weird…
Cowardice is weird as fuck, man…
It inspires people to do the absolute weirdest shit…
Cowards are basically scared people who, instead of facing and dealing with the things that scare them, just want others to be scared and suffering along with them. They want people and things to feel just as, if not, more scared and tortured than they themselves feel.
It’s why cowards love echo chambers and victimhood narratives and blaming/vilifying, attacking and devaluing others.
They just want people to be scared with them.
It’s a pretty easy concept to grasp, really…
This is one of the weirdest things about cowardice though…
INSTEAD OF seeking out and strengthening themselves in the company of brave people, cowards surround themselves with other cowardly people and then just PRETEND to be brave.
That’s just weird as fuck.
What’s even weirder than that though is that once cowards find each other and/or congregate together, they go around trying to attack, neutralize, devalue and silence authentically brave people.
Instead of actually becoming strong, they’d much rather hang around other weak people and simply pretend to be strong.
Ironically, the more a person tries to cover up fear and insecurity with deep social acting and bravado is the weaker and weaker they continue to get…
Just think about it like a guy who wants to look strong, so he injects his muscles with synthol instead of working out, eating right and taking nutritional supplements (assuming he’d need them)…
The more he’d inject that shit into his arms, shoulders and legs is the weaker and more damaged his body would continue to get as time progressed…
The notion of “looking tough” might imbue him with some brief and limited measure of situational power, especially in the eyes of other synthol abusers, however, to discerning eyes, he’d be all fluff and no substance.
He wouldn’t be able to do anything with all the mass he acquired towards covering up and/or offsetting his personal insecurities.
That’s pretty much EXACTLY how cowardice works.
Any strength derived from cowardice is veneer… it’s aesthetic, fleeting, unsustainable, and heavily dependent on external reinforcement and validation…
…and much like ‘muscle’ gained from synthol abuse, the more you “pack on” is the worse for wear you’ll utlimately be…
