Dark type has nothing to do with being down on your luck, disillusioned or worn out, but encapsulates using unhonorable techniques when fighting. Sucker Punch, Knock-Off, Throat Chop, Bite, etc.

That’s why Gloom is not a dark type.

The real trick is the only thing convincing everyone that life is supposed to be easy, is Hollywood, where every protag more or less wings it and somehow winds up with successful conflict resolution.

Without that being bludgeoned into your subconscious for your whole life, what possible evidence or reason could any person possibly have for thinking life is supposed to be easy?

I can only think of one person that actually put something on tv that tried to be real, that was Mr Rogers. He talked about things like divorce, losing a job, fighting with loved ones, etc. He alone acknowledged that life is hard, and actually prepared kids for it.

Because it is easy for rich people.

Are you sure? Or are you just falling for the image they are trying to portray?

Money can make a lot of things easier, it’s true. But life is a motherfucking bitch that ain’t that simple. Making part of it easier makes other parts of it harder. Rich people do experience depression though, they do sometimes commit suicide. They’re still people. Foolish ones, even.

You’re missing the true meaning of the word easy in this context. Easily as in won’t have to struggle for food, housing, clean water, luxuries, or anything really.

Being rich makes simply surviving irrelevant and assumed. When you don’t have to worry about any of the daily struggles life is by definition easy.

The rest is frankly just superfluous bullshit.

Idk about that attitude though, maybe I am lucky but I have been just a few steps above homelessness before and I still don’t consider life particularly hard, in fact for the most part I would call it fairly easy.

Generally when someone tries to say life is or should be easy, they’re selling something.

What life really is, is just complicated. If it involves very many other people anyway. We can ignore that complication if we want, sometimes suffer consequences and even blame those consequences on other people if we want. That’s all very common. But that’s just us controlling our own perception.

We’re a very image-oriented animal, so we’re very easy to fool with how things might “seem”. It takes a fair bit of effort and/or training to overcome this natural temptation. Otherwise a person defaults to more animal instincts, which serve us no different than they do wild animals. Win some and lose some, more or less.

Our technology and lifestyle did not come from these instincts though. Everything we’ve built came from something much, much more complicated and challenging. Usually involving a lot of math, annoyingly.

Life IS hard which us why I don’t have time to care much about the more superficial things in life. Your Door Dash food is cold? Well, cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it! My sh*tter’s full and my only other option is a log in the poison ivy patch!
