Yes. You have a limited life, escapism is literally sucking your life and pushing you down into the shit.

In FFTA there is a literal demon sucking the life out of everyone in Fake Ivalice. This is actually a metaphor. All escapism has a metaphorical demon sucking the life out of you.

People have, but on /v/ it will always fall on deaf ears because the life goal of the average /v/tard is permanent NEETdom to play video games 24/7.

Escapism means running away from your problems instead of facing them. It's not the same thing as spending a lot of time playing video games. Playing video games can be used as an escape but they're not mutually inclusive.

Meditation is the same thing. They just don't want you to play video games so that you can be another slave to society.

If I have a limited time on earth, why not expend it having fun?

Thanks for your input champ. Please close /v/ and start working in yourself, as social media is a waste of time and petty escapism.

No. As someone with a chronic illness what am I supposed to do? I can’t fix what’s broken.

No, unless it's interfering with the regular functions of your life. If you're not in any immediate danger of bankruptcy or homelessness, and you're not infringing on anyone else's right to do the same, do whatever the fuck you want.

Escapism is good when you've got stuff going on in your life and just need a break.

Escapism is bad when it is your life.
