Most people are hungry animals that deny being hungry animals.

Person A writes A is very congenial while I've seen A write about ruining others for little mistakes.

Person B writes B really doesn't like to hurt others' feelings. From time to time, I saw B throw random low-quality negative criticisms to people who B disagrees with.

Person C writes C knows how to attract women while the truth is that C is very hungry of women and doesn't know how to actually attract women.

I think they mistake what they want to be or what they can be as what they actually are now.

Or, they mistake what they want to look like in public places as what they actually are.

Self-acceptance is hard, so people deny what they actually are. Self-denial leads to self-deception.

Most people are like hungry animals that want to look like enlightened beings or angels or a super star.

Because they don't want to look like hungry animals to others, when they are asked, they deny being hungry animals.

Hungry animals are not popular among people. So, they disguise as something else. I see hungry animals deceive themselves on this forum, too.

A way out of this situation is self-acceptance. Accept that you are a hungry animal that just wants some pleasing attentions for survival.

Another way out is to serve the greater good rather than just your own survival.

Acceptance is a beginning. But a hungry animal once fed will still be hungry again later (addiction). It's more effective to find alternative (spiritual) nourishment as you don't have to go hunt for it and it fills the belly more.
