Emotional (stigma) Reaction to Roping

[Nenestar]

A part of the negative reaction comes from the reversal of moral obligation.

You owe life in forms of biological debt (it gave you a body), Social debt (don't hurt your family/friends), Future debt (abstract like, your potential happiness and achievements).

And people expect you to keep paying this invisible contract, when you never even agreed to it.

But what if life doesn't give you anything back, takes more than it gives you. Then the terms get reversed, you feel that life owes you something.

And it terrifies people. A lot of people rely on this structure to justify their own suffering. And suicide threatens it. That's why it is not only sadness; it's anger, betrayal, hopelessness, and other stuff.

Food for thought.

it doesnt really matter
if u rope, youre dead so it doesnt matter what others think about you, if they think you did something wrong with that action
if u fail to rope though, people will judge u
