      yeah lol i actually looked at the wikipedia article but like i don’t really get the probelm?? to me there obviously isn’t a disconnect and i didn’t realize other people ACTUALLY think there is? like i realized it makes a lot more sense now why some people think like “you can just WILLPOWER your way through” whatever. Like they ACTUALLY believe it’s a thing??
