We have a hard time escaping our subjective perspective. It's not a lottery. There are two humans who decide with almost 100 % certainty where they create a new human. It's hard to wrap your head around that, but understanding physicalism helps. The idea that you could be someone else is wrong.

If you accept that you are a brain in a meat mecha, sure.

Pretty sure these memes are made from the perspective of souls being real and independent of the body.
