I’m also 29, my family is dirt poor, I can’t find a job unless I want to work at a gas station in the poor section of town at night (hint: we’ve had a lot of shootings), and I’m getting kicked off food stamps due to not being able to find said work lmao

Also my license is suspended because I couldn’t afford a ticket due to a “rolling stop” issued by a cop literally hiding in the bushes at 2 am. So can’t even participate in the “gig” economy at this point.

I want to sleep but I can’t since the anxiety from all this has triggered my insomnia and depression to previously unprecedented levels.

What this person speaks of is utter and complete fiction.

A Redditor that has the tag “capitalist”, and is named TheGoldStandard35 even disagrees with the user.

all I’ll say is that it’s competitive so make sure you’re not wasting your time. but I haven’t graduated yet so someone else would have better insight into software careers

This is what happens when 99% of liberals’ exposure to anything resembling political theory is conservatives and pundits calling them communists, and liberals insisting they are not for a litany of reasons.

Liberals that support universal healthcare and think maybe the US govt is shit believe they’re ultra leftwing types, solely based off of those two ideas; and being politically uneducated, they think that a medley of left-wing ideas and liberal capitalist ideas can co-exist, unaware of them being diametrically opposed

Idealism, this is what happens when your analysis isn’t based on materialism and your ideology is vibes based only.

Nah. Corpo landlords would be more than happy to take it off their hands. Wait till they realise that climbing the property ladder is becoming next to impossible if you’re not in the 1% though.

Bro I’m 28 and I already lived through four economic crisis, two international crisis and two domestic crisis. Sometimes I feel just miserable and I’m one of the lucky ones.

Fuck me I want whatever he’s having.

Money? If I bought a town house 5 years ago where I’m at, for let’s say 400, I’d be sitting on 750+ now. I’d also be happy with the economy.

“Inflation is good because it makes my older crippling debts feel slightly better” is certainly a take

I mean that is actually just true provided that your wage is growing alongside inflation. Mine has been, but I’m Midwest Industrial Worker, and thus by default a Labor Aristocrat (or so I’m told); so my perspective may not be universal.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
