That took one singular person decades to do and he killed himself in a thousand ways before reaching that conclusion

Thousands of years according to some drafts of the script. Imagine all of human history, the efforts, successes and failures of billions of lives that led to you sitting here today, with a magical amulet in your hand, using it to instantly share your thoughts with others around the world. Despite all of the problems we have today, some of which caused directly and indirectly by this very technology we are using to connect with each other, that's still an amazing collective achievement, isn't it?

So we're stuck here forever, then? Because any solution that relies on "if people would just" is doomed to failure, because at no point in human history have people ever just anything. In fact, people make a goal of "just not, because fuck you" any time others try to get people to just.

That isn't even true for US history, and it is laughable to make that claim for world history

He bought insurance from the god he had angered.

Ned was the devil and Phil signed away his soul. Lots of fine print on insurance, I’m sure he didn’t read it. And Phil’s soul was good at that point. He was helping others all day long. No prize to get his soul at the beginning of the movie. He was a selfish scum bag then.

This!
Trickster Gods love the following:
1) Proud & Narcissistic victims.
2) Being physically close to their victims.
3) Offering an ironic means of escape/survival.
Why would a man who lives the same day, every day, buy insurance? That's how Phil escaped Punxsutawney & February 2nd.

Arguably, he was already devoted to others before the loop broke. Getting the girl was what did it.

Buying Ned Ryerson's life insurance did it.

He did get the girl previously in the movie. That wasn't enough.

oh fuck..I can do it but I know a lot of people who can't.
tavinjer
Everybody can; they just don’t always realize what the choice is.
Paraphrast
That's the work of making a better society.
TheMuellmann
It doesn't necessarily mean volunteer for the Red Cross or such; everybody can start by not being an asshole to others and look for patterns where they maybe hadn't realized they were harming others. Not that uncommon even among the least fortunate.
Muffyns
Idk how to not be an asshole to the nazi racists. Fuck them

Sorry, it's me holding us back from breaking the cycle. I'm just too damn lazy to help anyone, even myself! So... my bad. Good luck though, I have faith in y'all.
Elsoyyo
I'm not breaking the cycle. I'm ready. History repeats itself, and I want to know what is going to happen.
ph34rocious
then read yer history

Expectantly.
