There are a lot of bad countries to be born into, I mean just look up the countries with the top number of births.

Also, reincarnation might not be limited to humans… lots of factory farm animals out there for you to be reincarnated as… 👀

Honestly its one of the reasons I wanna live this life as long as I can, I wanna delay being in Afganistan, or North Korea, or a mouse that gets killed by the housecat, or being a damn cockroach.

    The problem is you’re seeing it as punishment, when instead it’s a necessary journey on the path of enlightenment.

      I am pretty sure you can only get enlightened as a human being, so being reborn as something else definitely won’t help.

        Or you know, you could get lucky and be the fat kid they station in front of the fake grocery store for American journalists

          The good news is you are born in to the ruling Kim dynasty in North Korea. You are raised in privilege and luxury. The bad news is your patron’s successor deems you a threat and you are purged at age 18.
