Why is society obsessed with lying to people? When you're growing up you're force fed blue pilled bullshit and often you have to learn how reality is the hard way because people lie or mislead you about how life really is. All of the things I was told are important, would make me happy, are necessary in life, etc. were bullshit and honestly just made me miserable in the end until I started doing things my way.

Why do people deny how reality actually is?
