Speaking of investigating life choices, you're coming off like an asshole. You might want to reconsider the way you talk to people.

Here's the summary:

1. A post uses food as a metaphor* to make a point.

2. You basically say bullshit to the food, then rant about life.

3. Someone says "I dunno if it's BS, I've experienced this!"

4. And you say "then there's something wrong with you".

Fuck you, buddy.

>You might want to reconsider the way you talk to people.

That's amusing to see in a post where you've included both an "asshole" and a "fuck you".

>Here's the summary:

More like an angry oversimplification.

1&2: I think your post actually goes in two directions, finding individual motivation and catalyzing group motivations. The latter is what I chose to comment on.

3&4: The commentor offered an anecdote, I asked him to think critically about what he's saying versus experiencing. You've taken it upon yourself to assume a very specific response and quote it as a statement - ridiculous.
