What is a thing or behavior that majority of society thinks of as normal but you don't understand it/it pisses you off/you hate it?
>greed
I don't understand the desire for money. I want some stuff sometimes, like a game or a figurine, and to buy tasty food, but becoming rich wouldn't make me magically happy

greed is one thing, another is demonziing other groups of people especially politically

I feel that way about money to some extent. I can understand wanting, like, a million dollars, but there are people out there who have a hundred million or a billion or even more than that. Do you seriously have such expensive needs that even a million dollars can't cover them all?
Anyway, I'm sure I have a lot of answers to your question, but here's one:
>charity
I can understand a person, out of the kindness of his heart, giving away a bunch of money. What I don't understand is that we just openly accept begging. Begging from individual people and begging from corporations. Begging is the most immoral thing you can do - you're demanding other people give up their labor for you, basically demanding they become your slaves - and yet so many people are perfectly happy with beggars and even give them money, thus encouraging them to infect the city with their filth and crime. It's disgusting.

Humans are survival machines. We are adapted for circumstances of scarcity where hording behavior was once rewarded as a safeguard against famine, failed hunts, etc.

But now im modern times since we live in a world of plenty this once advantageous trait now becomes maladaptive as people essentially horde more resources than they could ever possibly use which in turn creates artificial scarcity. And then upon viewing this artificial scarcity especially effect on others triggers the resource horders to horde even more not wanting to end up like the very same people that they unintentionally victimize.

Opposite, something i do but it's considered weird: staring at people in public. What's wrong with it? Usually i'm admiring their clothing choice or hair

i don't understand why socializing has all these arbitrary rituals. why can't i just walk up to someone and ask them to be my friend? i say this as a non-autistic person deeply dissatisfied with normalfag culture
