Being a normie is honestly kind of a crazy way to live (in a bad way), you spend the majority of your life just working, waiting for your free time to arrive and then have it instantly zapped away then it's back to working and then repeat this until retirement or death. It's such a dull, pointless existence, and it's a prison you can't really escape from unless you're willing to be broke and homeless.

How do people find this kind of life fulfilling? It's not an adventerous life, and it's not a peaceful life either because you're constantly in fear of losing everything, but then again what exactly do you have to lose if all you do is spend most of your life working with very little free time? Is this the reason why normies choose to have kids, it's because their lives are so awfully dull that they cope by bringing in more people into this world only for those children to grow up and repeat the vicious cycle?

Even when not working there's compulsion to do something, to be someone, to increase joy, to decrease suffering, to be alert of all the dangers, to worry about tomorrow, to lament the past, to relate to others somehow. There's no peace to be had as long as we're alive.

The normie way might just be the middle way, the result of negotiation between the extremes of dealing with the human condition. The normie way avoids the extremes of distracting oneself with consooming media and exogenous substances, the extremes of life risking activities resulting in early death, financial ruin or prison, the extremes of hermit lifestyles and the extremes of completely dedicating life to a particular skill. The normie lifestyle offers a balance of all the good and bad things of the extremes.

I can think of no worse hell than wage-cucking and being busy, all the time every day, even on 'time off'.
It's much worse than the dullness of NEETdom, IMO.

Astutely observed anon, no one ever realises this and everyone just chooses - with a power they could actually use to make a different choice - to live like this the same way they decided before they were even born that the world they live in would work like this. Now please, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
