People Are Sharing “Harsh Realities” That No One Wants To Accept, And Here’s 29 Of The Most Insightful Ones
Our perspective on the world is shaped every day by everything we consciously and subconsciously see and experience. Some core ideas form in our minds that are rarely challenged later in life. But they should be. The general idea of 'right and wrong' that we see so often growing up doesn't really continue into the real world. Bad things happen to good people, bad people often face no repercussions for their actions: reality is harsh.
One Reddit user wanted to see what other 'hard to swallow' truths people have already learned. Over 31k people had something to say, sharing things that are difficult to accept, but are the actual reality once you step out of the dream world.
Bored Panda picked out the top raw and honest answers that are better to learn later than never. Scroll down and upvote your favorites, and make sure to share your thoughts; maybe you disagree with some of them? And if we're still missing out on some 'harsh realities', please tell us in the comments below!

Hard work doesn't always pay off.
It's the avocado toast's fault!!1!1!!! Not the fact that rich people get richer by stealing poor people's money, we totally don't do that!!1!!1!1 /s
Bad things will happen to you for no reason.
Some people just can’t be saved, you could give them every benefit in the world and they still could choose to throw it all away and you can’t do anything about it.
So true, and it's impossible to stop the people that want to help them.
Your government does NOT have your best interest at heart.
Please specify the government you talk about. I have a complete different perception here in the Netherlands.
Your government does not have YOUR (singular) best interest at heart. It may have the collectives best interest but not you as a person
Load More Replies...As a U S citizen I’m sure voting for this. Our government allows idiots who are older than dirt to serve in Congress. Also Donald Trump, Ron de Santis, Greg Abbot et Al sure don’t have our best interest at heart
This is true. I worked in the government and have never seen a larger group of people less interested in others in general. There were always the exceptions but they were often stampeded by the many who cared only for their own bank accounts and careers. It’s so sad, st least here in America.
It depends on who vote for. If you vote for reality TV stars with no political experience and doesn't care about anything but himself, you are going to get a dysfunctional administration.
Despite rants and crazy conspiracies to the contrary,, we still have democracy in America. "The government" isn't some mysterious entity. It's us. We get the government we deserve; because we vote to elect the people in power. If you think it's messed up, look around you and ask yourself what you're doing to make your community s better place.
Only partly true. The system IS rigged. It's designed to keep the status quo at all costs.
Load More Replies...They do, in many cases. We can except some autocracies like NK and Russia. In SA I am certain they DO have our best interests in mind however they are merely incompetent.
And insurance companies make money by paying for as little as possible. They are not on your side.
This is way too vague a statement to be even remotely accurate. My local township has excellent representatives who do their best for the community. My local education board members bust their tail. Many government employees truly do their best to help people. My government-run health department has always been helpful to the community. This god damn negativity is the actual problem. Everyone nowadays is so polarized with an 'us vs them' mentality that is so immature and sad to see. Go live on a f*****g dirt floor without access to clean drinking water, then you can see what it is to truly struggle
The government is like a legal mafia. They are all liars with their own interests, not ours. Yet people keep voting these snakes in
What an oversimplification. I always raise an eyebrow when folks talk about “the government” like the entire thing from local, state to feds is made up of some monolithic hive mind…it’s just a bunch of humans in groups usually in a mix from those who really work hard for those they serve and want to do right by them to narcissistic asshomes who are out to enrich and empower themselves at whatever cost- and a ton of regular folks in between. No one person or group should be blindly trusted, but you can’t be so cynical as to never allow anyone to lead either.
Dependa on the type of government and the economic system you live under. Capitalist government? Definitely? Socialist governments? Not necessarily since bt definition they are made up of by prdinary people and are thus owned by the people. When you don't have private property (aka corporations) corrupting the government... it turns out it'a in the best interest of the people working in the government to help those outside the government because it helps them by proxy. Western governments don't have our best interest at heart mainly because politicians sell themselves out to capital. If there is no capital for them to serve... then they are forced to be in the same boat as the rest of us.
I knew that why different parties (is that how you say it in English?) Excist
They don't in all cases. Sometimes yes. Usually no. The government is here to help the normal people feel they have a say in things. It's just here to make sure the rich stay rich
This one is very egocentric. The government can't possibly have YOUR best interest at heart, it's there to make decisions that benefit the country. There are so many different people with different needs at different stages in their lives, that it's impossible to keep them all happy.
Thanks for the common sense here. And Americans generally do not participate and understand nothing about how govt or economics work. They answer to us when we demand it.
Load More Replies...Specifically, USA. If the government here doesn't like hearing this then effing do something to change this perception. Game on! Our "so called representatives " are more concerned about money and power!"
Sadly the people who are in the government, don't always have the best interest of those they are supposed to be serving at heart.
A perfect case for repealing the 19th amendment.
Load More Replies...If any government had its people's interest at heart then there wouldn't be war. Health care would be free and well funded and education would be free until the end of university. People would be well protected in their employment and you'd be able to live on minimum wage. You wouldn't have to live in absolute poverty if you became disabled and journalists wouldn't be getting jailed for revealing your war crimes..
All true per se, but so idealistic. Dealing with human nature.
Load More Replies...If you're able to participate in government but choose not to, then this is a self-fulfilling statement. At least in the U.S., the number of people that complain about "the government" but never bother with local or state elections is baffling and sad. No, you don't always get your way, and it can be a struggle to be heard, but abstaining and complaining makes you part of the problem.
More obvious to the people in some nations than others. Here in Germany for example it's very obvious
Depends on the country and heart of government. But really, if everyone had everyone else in their interest, it wouldn't matter the country or government, bc the government would give their very best to everyone anywhere But sadly, it's so unfortunate, that the United States government only does so much for their country, when really they could go above and beyond
This should be number one, just look at how they screwed us up with covid.
actually it was the american right that screwed america on that. Our country (SA) had a better death ratio (fewer dead per capita) than USA. Why? because we followed the science and took it seriously. Africa. You know, what trump called us.
Load More Replies...Same with all HR offices in businesses and govt. They are there for the CO, NOT YOU!!!!
STOP YOUR BULLSHYT GENERALIZING, YOU STUPID FUQ ASSHAT.
Load More Replies...Some people just don't get a happy ending, some people never find happiness or satisfaction. People tell you that there is light at the end of the tunnel but for some people there isn't, they never get to see any light, just darkness.
And for some of us, the light is like a cat laser pointer, enough to distract us and give us hope, but ultimately not much.
Beauty matters in how people treat people.
I read some statistics saying that attractive criminals tend to receive shorter sentences than unattractive ones. Messed up.
That it’s more likely to succeed if born rich than if you born talented
I would prefer to be born talented and succeed at becoming rich, than be born rich and succeed at staying rich.
Sometimes, YOU are the problem in a relationship. And if people keep on leaving you, it may well be your fault. Even if you don’t feel like it is.
I work with a guy who’s been married and divorced 3 times. Spend an hour or so around him and there are many clues as to why but I don’t think he has ever considered himself to be the common factor in his failed relationships. He’s currently working on wife number 4 but I don’t hold out much hope for this marriage either.
The world goes on after you die.
"One generation passes away and another generation comes; but the earth is forever." (Ecclesiastes 1:4)
There is no karma. Bad things happen to good people. Bad people do bad things that never catch up to them. Good people do good things that screw them over in the long run. It’s all random.
Us 1st world citizens have it much better than we think we have it.
I know I was lucky.......born white in the UK gave me so many advantages . I do try to appreciate it.
First impressions are a very f*****g big deal.
On average you judge someone you meet for the first time in about 15 seconds. You are rarely wrong.
Not everyone is going to like you, no matter how hard you try.
Umm… am I crazy? Why are there two double posts with the exact same comments—
Money and good looks matter
Rich people: "money doesn't matter" | Poor people: OK then, if it doesn't matter can you give some of it to us? | Rich people: Nooooo this is not how you do it!!1!1!
We're not all special.
Some of us will not find love.
We're not all equal.
You will likely be lost to history. In just a few centuries, nobody will remember or even knew you existed. Sad, I know, but you just have to accept it.
Mistakes do define you. The little ones don’t, but if you make a big mistake, it will alter your life to an extent. Saying that they don’t matter is a lie that will prevent you from diagnosing life problems later down the line.
You don’t always keep the good friends you meet. But that doesn’t mean you can’t make more later on down the road!
You’re the bad guy in someone’s story, so many of your enemies will never admit to doing anything wrong, but the thing is neither will you in some situations.
People justify their own behaviour to themselves. That’s why so many people can’t apologise and double down on the s****y things they do.
Because people tend to find 'reasons' and excuses for their behavior.
All human beings are capable of being viciously immoral. There’s a point where we can be forced or force ourselves to become completely animalistic. We can perpetrate murder and genocide, as just one example, and if justified to ourselves correctly, we will feel no remorse. We like to think that the only people capable of such horror are a minority but the truth is that we are all capable of it given the right circumstances.
Dehumanizing someone, considering them an animal, a rabid animal, is how humans justify killing them—-and spinning it that “the rabid animal” actually deserved to be put down. It’s totally f****d up, but it’s what we do. Soldiers in a war are sent there to kill as many of the enemy as possible. That enemy is vilified by being portrayed as less than human, as vicious animals, as deserving to be killed—-and people applaud them for killing more of the enemy than the enemy kills them. I know it’s a way to dissociate, to justify going against everything we’re taught about not killing people so we don’t go insane from committing an act that society would otherwise consider aberrant. But maybe by not dehumanizing others, by retaining the context that we’re all humans and shouldn’t be committing acts of violence against each other, maybe we might finally leave our worst tendencies behind us, and finally take the next evolutionary step—-one that the knuckledraggers continually keep pulling us back from—-by becoming a truly elevated species that doesn’t give in to our more animalistic tendencies. (Hey, I can dream, can’t I?)
People refuse to accept that this IS the reality. Lots of time and money is spent cushioning that blow.
We live here. We live now.
Best get used to it.
Pain is inescapable. Not even acknowledging that pain is inevitable and preparing for it ahead of time can lessen it.
You will be taken by surprise, you will be hurt, you will not enjoy it, you will not be able to numb it, and there is nothing you can do except take it on the chin.
Very few people truly accept their mortality, and most of the time when it truly sinks in, people get scared and want to avoid it.
People can just simply fall out of love with you for no reason.
You fretting about whether it's you or something else or the investment is basically you giving them the reasons to strengthen the reason why they stopped loving you. When they could very much not have a reason at all, feelings and priorities can change.
People like to be lied to. They don’t like finding out they’ve been lied to
I do not like to be lied to! I CAN (for emphasis) handle the truth. Whatever you do, don’t lie to me. Whoever has lied to me will find out how much I don’t like it.
Here's one...not everyone's opinion is valid. Credibility and experience on the topic matter. Look if you're not a medical professional i really don't care to hear your medical advice. If you don't know anything about truck tires please don't recommend me tires.
Here is one: If you post a factual statement on Bored Panda, people will down vote it because it contradicts their illusion.
Well, there's plenty of things that some people take as factual - part of their religion or belief system - that someone else will vehemently contradict and claim their reality is, in fact, an illusion. And so on and so on.
Load More Replies...There are two kinds of people in the world, no matter who you are, what you believe or not, or where you live. Nice people and a******s. Sometimes a******s can be nice, and sometimes nice people can be a******s, but you’re pretty much one or the other—-however, it’s NOT for you to decide. Other people are the ones who get to decide your designation. So you may think you’re a good person, but in reality you’re an a*****e. Or vice-versa. All you can do is try to be better, if you want to. Whether you succeed or not is something you can’t really predict with certainty.
I use not all nice people are good and not all good people are nice. In fact I know more nice a******s than I do just a******s or good a******s. Nice is a shell, good is a core. I much rather deal with a "rude" good a*****e than a bubbly nice selfish person.
Load More Replies...Agree, these are really just poor takes is sad some people actually believe this =:I
Load More Replies...Being in denial about something is not going to make your life easier. For example both my partner and I are disabled but I have accepted it and he hasn't. I get the help I need when I asked for it I get access to better services because I accept being disabled. He refuses to admit that he's disabled but at the same time he doesn't see me as being weak for accepting it. It's just a weird little quirk in his personality.
I was just like him once! I thought "well I'm not paralyzed so I don't *need* a wheelchair! that's unnecessary!" but then I thought about it harder and realized "oh right, standing for more than 20 minutes can knock me out from the pain for days... maybe I should ask my doctor about getting a wheelchair" and now look at me, happy and living my best life with my wheelchair
Load More Replies...Wow, most of these come across as a jerk trying to explain away and justify why they're a complete jerk. "I'm a horrible person because everyone else is a horrible person and you're simply too stupid to realize it yet or you'd be horrible too!" is an awful way to live. I know how awful SOME people are and I CHOOSE to not punish everyone else for it. I go out of my way to treat others the way I would like to be treated, not necessarily how they actually wind up treating me. Toxic pessimism saves just as many people as toxic optimism; no one.
I try and lead every interaction with kindness. I'm also disabled and have a pretty terrible life. And I think every one of these is true. People don't have to be jerks to acknowledge that life can be extremely hard and sometimes very unfair. It's just reality.
Load More Replies...My grandfather always told me, "there's only two things you can take to your grave. One is your name the second, your reputation. Better make damn sure they are good ones!" He's right! I take that to heart
Harsh reality: TRUMP F*****G LOST! And saying "TRUMP WON" after calling us "snowflakes" for saying he wasn't our president makes you a hypocrite!
one for parents: your kid is their own person and will follow their own path in life. even it it upsets you. deal with it. im not sorry for leaving the church
Regardless what path they take remember you're still responsible on guiding them on the right path. =:P
Load More Replies...Sometimes I think they should post some of these "harsh realities of life" on school walls and talk about them with the students. Many schools mean well (i think) by trying to teach kids to be fair, kind etc. The reality is that life isn't fair and probably never will be. Maybe it would be better to teach them how to deal with that reality instead.
I agree, I would call it to be resilient, but also the message of you can do what you want to if you try hard enough is wrong also stop sending kids to University unless is is totally needed!!!
Load More Replies...Everyone has privilege it's just shows in different situations. Johari window When and where you are born is one of the most significant factors in your life. It shapes your reality more than anything. More often than not children are messed up because their parents dropped the ball not because of society. Parents make kids, kids grow up and change parts of society and than have kids who go on to do the same thing. Systems aren't evil, people are just not as good (in the perfection sense) as we think. Those systems AND people are why you have the outlooks you have. Humans are emotional storytellers above everything. Pulling yourself by your bootstraps is an impossible task, literally what it means. People will twist things to fit their narrative despite being factually wrong. And a s**t ton more things.
That is accurate to an extent. However, I posit, that after an indeterminate age point (mostly 20-25 in my opinion of generality, though everyone is an individual) who you are as a person is your own fault. If, after some number of years you can't/won't/don't sit down and figure out the difference between reality as you have lived it vs what you were taught to believe YOU have failed yourself.
Load More Replies...Not sure why this was downvoted. It's a pro-active, responsible and very adult attitude to have. In no way does it harm anyone to express it. I wonder if sometimes people just want to ban anyone they don't agree with.
Load More Replies...Nothing like starting out the New Year being depressed over all the c**p I read on this post. However, I did find out I'm not as fu**ed up as I thought. Some people have some awful stuff going on. I'm fortunate.
Great minds don't think anything alike. People who aren't willing to change themselves are lying about wanting world peace. "Girl, you are beautiful both inside AND out!" That second part probably isn't true. The splitting and crossing of the red sea, according to the guy who wrote about it, happened at night. It's the people AND it's the guns.
Half of us are below average, just on different subjects. (Maybe a Will Rogers quote.)
WOW!! I sure as the world don't ever want to meet the horrendously negative person or people who wrote this swill! Just reading the first few bits is so depressing, one is far better off just shutting the whole post down. Plain and simply creepy.
I heard a woman assume a man at a checkout must smell really bad because he was over weight....he wasn't obese just had a belly. And she was all over it giving out how gross he was and must smell of sweat cause he must never move off his couch only to get food. Amazing how looks are super important and mainly by people who post stuff on social media about depression or "be kind" .. practice what you preach please

You're more likely to be a Bond villain than a Batman. You would not "do more for the world" if you were rich. You would be just as crappy as the majority of the 1%ers. Wealth makes people selfish and there's science on that. As someone who did holiday parties for companies where tips were normal, blue collar office parties tipped, and often well, almost all the time, where the parties for the rich folks *never* tipped. Not even once.
Also if you're begging a terminally ill loved one to continue invasive treatment instead of supporting what their choices are you are literally hurting them, not helping them. Bonus, they may feel like a failure for dying in their last moments on earth. The reason our culture thinks this is okay is that the western medical model encourages life preservation at all costs, figuratively and literally. Healthcare in the US is about money, not health, and this has infiltrated the way we think about treatments, to the detriment of our well-being.
Load More Replies...This are all just poor takes on reality sadly. Don't read this, like always this are just excuses people use to justify why they are miserable. Times use to be much, much worse, we are living in the best times in the history of the world. Stop focusing so much on the negative or that is all you're going to see. All this makes up such a small percentage of the world yet we blow it up bigger then it really is. Not trying to undermine some of the hardships out there just stating there is so much more good out there. That's the true harsh reality =:3
This one concerns and disgusts me - Think about how Genghis is looked upon in our history books. A man who conquered so many lands, impressively in his abilities. Ignoring the millions that died and suffered horribly at his hands. Now look at the modern day monster who have committed the same crimes. In centuries to come, how do you think they will ultimately be reviewed. Humanities ability to change focus on atrocities is sickening, but ultimately inevitable.
I'm confused on this one. I don't know anyone who thinks he was a saint. They acknowledge him as a important and impressive leader. He did drastically change world events for all to come. These current people arent any of those. They aren't seen as impressive or really that impactful on the grand scale. Yes they've changed world events but compared to past emperors, kings, and leaders morden day people barely make a dent. It's much easier to be that influential with smaller world numbers. Yes groups of people will always ignore the red flags but most people don't.
Load More Replies...If it was that bad here people should think about there life choices or maybe have the common since to make it right it’s hard but it improves society kind of like the opposite of the way society is moving it only gets worse as more time comes so it’s now or never anyone can help make the world a better place in case anyone wants to help the world this would be a good place to start
That's a choice and your opinion. You sound miserable regardless....

Yes they've changed world events but compared to past emperors, kings, and leaders morden day people barely make a dent. It's much easier to be that influential with smaller world numbers. Yes groups of people will always ignore the red flags but most people don't.

That's a choice and your opinion. You sound miserable regardless....
