Do you believe in karma?

i learn about just world bias long time ago and they say it makes people prone to victim blaming because it means "people get what they deserve always"

Lmao of course not

Just look around - many people who are kind and polite and dont harm anyone often live in poverty and die in poverty

And many bad people live in luxury, drive expensive cars and all that

Im not a leftist and all that but i see this situation too often

So there is no karma

Many bad people will live rich and happy lives and nothing bad will happen to them

@x_scolopendra_x

but how do you know? Do you actually live those lives or see and interact with those people in your day to day life? Or is it based on what the media portrays?

Life isn't fair, so believing in karma is copium.

@Zarutaku Life is fair imo, you get back what you put out, life is a mirror, if you don't like the reflection, that's not the mirrors fault, you need to fix you.

Based on what I've seen. I think Karma is subjective. People value different things in others.

Though ultimately I think Karma is what the world reflects back onto us.

For example, I've had phases where I was depressed and dressed like a slob, lived like a slob, lacked grooming and was very bitter. When I went out, the world reflected back negatively.
When I started trying again, groomed myself, dressed myself, put in effort, and was a happier person, the world reflected back positively.

I've seen it many times the idea that trying doesn't amount to anything and to just swallow the blackpill. But what I've actually experienced is that by accepting that idea, that world becomes reality. When I rejected these ideas, is when my life started improving. 🤷‍♂️ Dunno though. All I can speak of are my lived experiences and I really do believe reality is what we make of it.
