I grew up and lead a comfortable, burgeois, middle class existence and ive internalized unconscious assumptions that im better than poor people, or people that work at lower jobs, or even racial minorities. I only interact in a small bubble confined to my social class, and as an outcast I have even a more limited experience of others from different classes of this society than my peers.
All my life ive been in institutions - school, clubs, and uni. My interactions outside institutions and social class occoured mostly through the intetnet - a totally different world from what i experience daily.
Now that im a NEET, belonging to no institution, and that ive been developing more awareness of the world around me as I age, i realize how alienating my life experience has been so far. I realize that im not so different than the poor, people from different classes, etc, and I myself have almost no skills, self discipline, relationships, experience. What set us appart were accidents of birth, and These people are in some respects better than me, after all they still survive and have engaging lives.
