I am not criticizing them, I’m just out of the loop.

    Young people haven’t experienced life yet and think communist is something good, despite 100 years of absolute failures and hundreds of millions of people starving, getting killed for things such as wearing glasses, and sent to work to death in prisons for having a different opinion.

    Young people also over represent themselves on the transgender scale and don’t realize they aren’t actually special compared to the 7 billion people in the world, but like to feel special in their high school of 1,000 people.

    Young people comprise the vast majority of people on the fediverse.

    Young people will get a rude awakening once they find out they have to work for a living, provide to those they love and, once again, that their ‘identity’ doesn’t matter to anyone else.

      Some people have experiences which have left them embittered towards a younger, more hopeful generation. Despite 100’s of years of exploitation, absolute failure, and hundreds of millions of people starving to death, getting killed for things such as not wanting to work weekends, and sent to work to death for having the absolute cajones to do what they need to do to provide for their loved ones, they STILL insist that capitalism is the only way forward because it’s the only thing they’ve ever known.

      The average human may not stand out amid 8 billion other people, but each and every person is unique and therefore special in their own way.

      Everyone wants to work, to do something, but no one wants to have a job because your worth as a human shouldn’t be tied to how much money you can earn for someone else. (And, inb4 “art is not a job”, that is so fucking disingenuous; if you think that art isn’t essential, then STOP listening to music, STOP watching television and movies, STOP reading books and newspapers, and then get back to me.) People naturally provide for those they care for and, news flash, people care about other people and their identities.

      I know you’re probably just trolling because you hate your life under capitalism and need to feel like you’re a part of something, but like join the club bro.

      Lmao. Here’s the bootlicker to vehemently defend the shit ass system stepping on his neck, whilst shitting on “young” ppl because that’s the only thing left for him to feel better about his sad life.

      Btw, I’m 37 and I still haven’t become a lifeless drone who bitches about young ppl.

      And before your next predictable retort; I’m successfully self employed and I work harder than you - I guarantee it.

      Doesn’t mean I can’t advocate for a better life for the next generation because I had to work hard. Doesn’t make me a special snowflake or better than anyone else.

        bootlicker

        Boot licker because…I think communism is bad?

        Or because I think the youth obsessed with social media and gender identity will have a rude awakening when they actually have to get jobs?

        Btw, I’m 37 and I still haven’t become a lifeless drone who bitches about young ppl.

        Btw I’m 29 and I still haven’t become a lifeless drone who bitches about young ppl. I bitch about idiots who think communism is good and gender identity is the most important thing in the world.

        And before your next predictable retort; I’m successfully self employed and I work harder than you - I guarantee it.

        And I don’t care. I’m glad you’re successful. I feel sorry for you that you work harder than I do.

        I’m decently successful, working for a small company, and I work maybe 3-4 hours a day. I don’t want to work, I want to live life. I’m living a great and happy life every day, that’s what I strive for, I don’t strive to work as hard as I can.

        Doesn’t mean I can’t advocate for a better life for the next generation because I had to work hard

        Are you talking about communism?

        If you are self employed, it’s because of anti-communism policies, and you have capitalism to thank.

        You’re welcome - from Capitalism.

          you’re not anti communist or pro capitalist. you’re out to get what you can for your own survival.

          (not a bad thing, just don’t lie)

            I’m anti-communist and pro-capitalist. I don’t care what you think I am, I’m about as pro-capitalist as you get.

            You quoted me…so what? Is that supposed to prove some weird point of yours?

            Capitalism isn’t about working hard, it’s about getting paid what you’re worth. I get by on 1.2-1.3k hours a year in exchange for 100k. I could get closer to 140-150k if I wanted to work my ass off, I don’.

            Being pro capitalist doesn’t mean I need to work my ass off. A core principle says that two parties come together to agree to an exchange of services and pay, without another party (generally government) interfering.
