For some reason people are really defensive against my comment here

Honestly this subreddit is kind of garbage. I don't know why. It's like, on every post there's a million people arguing against it. Like why did they join or subscribe to a get motivated subreddit if they're going to argue against every post that's about motivation?

I guess I'm being rude but they're kind of asking for it

Oh yeah it's fully garbage. I'm fr gunna bounce from it soon lol. People expect to be able to find life's meaning in a single quote without actually researching the history of the person who said it or their beliefs. It's a sentence for crying out loud. If you don't know the context you probably aren't going to glean anything from it lmao, especially when it comes from complex thinkers like psychologists. And yet here we have all these folks (who don't even seem to know who Carl Jung is or what his incredible contributions were) saying he's spewing bullshit just because they don't understand the quote at face value. sigh
