If you asked the average person “Is life fair” they would likely concede “no.” But I feel that many people don’t deeply in their bones realize that life isn’t fair and sort of just say the slogan.
Especially people who have just graduated from college, who have had a gravy train baby boomer career with no injustices done to them or no real road blocks or who are conceited.
You have to be willing to fight against a world that isn’t on your side. That’s the harsh reality. You can’t expect people to be in your corner and you have to expect that people will do things to hold you down.
