I think you're still misinterpreting what I'm saying because we're on different wavelengths because that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that you're defending ideas that failed you because you want them to work for you because you're emotionally attached to the traditional social advancement associated with those supposed achievements.
Like, if medicine became a field that stopped truly being about saving lives you'd still want to be a doctor because having the "Dr." in front of your name would give you the social benefits of being a doctor even if the field stopped having any real meaning.
