Connections or failure isn't really accessible in large parts of the world. It doesn't help that there's the occasional story of an orphan who lost his entire family and his uncle turned out to be Satan himself, he had to walk 20 kilometers to school and survive with no electricity for years, yet despite all that he managed to become a millionaire, all by himself, so anyone can!

So it makes a lot of sense to me why a lot of people are turning for AI. How many people actually want to interact with maladaptive individuals? That's the job of a therapist and they're not really accessible, as I mentioned earlier. If someone can't access treatment chances are they'll make a lot of mistakes and those mistakes will define them, because that's what people are. Most people will see you as the person they got to know you as, no matter how much you change. If they got to know you as someone unappealing the ship is sailed. Changing communities is often inaccessible to lots of people as well, it's so easy to judge a homeless drifter, but unless you've been on the receiving end most people have no clue how brutal and cold-hearted the world is.

It's one of the reasons I really wish someday we'll have socialism, there's lots of people nobody gives a shit about. If someone isn't a good victim then their suffering is a-okay, some will even laugh at them and mock them, because if the person is not a good victim guess we can dehumanize them, as a treat.
