Status Updates From Existentialism Is a Humanism

Man is indeed what he makes of himself, I agreed, regardless of external morals or religious believe. But a question remains with me, one that Sartre himself wrestled with, "What if someone is born into literal or systemic slavery and never granted the opportunity to change their path? If their possiblities is barred by the world before they even take their first step, is it their lack of change or an error?"

The lecture is good tbh, it clarifies many misconceptions of Existentialism by certain groups that I won't get into here. Paperknife analogy led us to reflect on smth people often debate: are we born with a specific purpose or do we exist first and then create that purpose?
