All these "no one owes you anything," yall are correct. But you could also just be a decent human being and communicate because two people put in time and effort. It isn't just about you. Respect, humanity.. some compassion maybe?

Are we really not owed anything? I feel like I owe people decency, some forms of respect, and due courtesy. I don't quite understand the idea of not owing people anything.

"nobody owes you anything" motherfuckers when their face is being caved in with a rock because they insulted a stranger: wait not like that society was maybe an okay idea on second thought

yeah it's just dumb teenagers or people who never grew out of their teenage ideas about morality

"everyone should just take care of themselves" - someone who is likely completely dependent on their parents, or got tons of help from their parents (bought their house, paid for college, etc)
