This is always a clash when I end up talking to my parents. My home country is slowly falling apart economically and they’re completely fucking blind to it. Especially ironic cus one of em is a fucking portfolio manager.
Like when I even mention that affording anything it getting worse and worse each year, while the rich consistently break income records, they derail the discussion by saying like “but don’t you have it great tho” (I earn well above average and still feel the pressure, THAT’S THE POINT) or mention that some rich assholes renovated some random castle and that without him it would juts be a ruin and that’s sad or some shit.
And we aren’t even getting that political yet. Just saying “hey mom, my future be looking unsustainable”.
The CEO death rate due to gun violence is still less than the death rate of children in schools, so I don’t know what they’re worried about.
I want to know some awesome parents like you guys!! The parents I know aren’t very open about this stuff.
Me and my coworkers
My job is national/intl and very conservative. My home city is very progressive. Everyone has been saying the same shit for a long time and the lines are so blurry now, it feels like upper middle class people are starting to realize it’s one class.
“Mulch”. New word for me :)
I only ever use “Billionaire Mulch” for my turnips. It’s a bit more costly - my turnips are more than worth it.
Sure, but why not? One would think it would be a popular opinion.
Historically speaking, murdering all the people you don’t like has not curbed greed or selfish behavior.
I’m not advocating the act. I’m saying that, given it’s clearly a popular opinion - right or wrong - it’s surprising that it’s contentious to bring up.
it clearly is going by how butthurt the media is about the public reaction to this killing done in defense of others.
