I’m not saying there aren’t gen z who are suffering. You’re one of many and I’m sorry for that.
Millennials still, as a generation, have it objectively worse financially.
I protested during OWS and got pepper sprayed for it. I worked for the Bernie campaign just to see the DNC royally fuck their base in the ass no lube. The only peaceful action we have left is a general strike and everybody’s struggling so hard trying to fend for themselves that no one has it in them to organize a strike let alone all the fucking bootlickers who’d be against a unified labor action anyways.
We’re fucked. Violence appears to be the only answer, and for now it’s only the far right with an appetite for it. And they love the state.
He purposely made it so the timing was under biden so biden would get blamed for it. He’s a master manipulator.
To be fair, both presidents deserve blame for that cluster fuck. And Obama for not getting out sooner, and bush 2 for getting us into the mess in the first place.
Get what you pay for. The minimum wage is still 7.25 federally. I can’t believe employers just choose not to pay livable wages.
Lose me with this “nobody wants to work anymore” bullshit. Nobody wants to pay anymore.
Yeah he sounds like a shady fucker, which seems appropriate for doing my taxes
What, the handful of randoms on the left that hold zero power politically or socially? The couple of weirdo loners? Where’s the evidence?!
Let’s compare and contrast with the trump fueled “Jews will not replace us” white nationalist march in Charlottesville 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 or how about the more recent nazi march in Springfield 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Enlightened centrists are just right wing grifters out of touch with reality.
Trump ended the war in afghanistan, which handed power back over to the Taliban.
Coincidentally, our heroin supply is gone and has since been replaced by Chinese fentanyl.
Considering our health system is collapsing, I’m hoping they die / move back for healthcare.
Or the stock market crashes and all of their play money vanishes.
Where are you? In vermont prices just go up and up. I don’t even pay attention to interest rates as the prices are far beyond what I’m capable of.
You’re extremely privileged. I didn’t have a college fund, I was coerced into taking out a mortgage on my worthless education.
My mom is on the brink of homelessness (she lost the house after dad died) and my dad is dead (thank you for profit american healthcare system). Despite being college educated, the most money I’ve ever consistently made per hour is $25. I’m just barely getting by, and jobs in my field pay less than what I currently make as a valet driver with tips (~35 an hour but half is tips).
Unless I win the lottery or fall into exceptionally lucky circumstances, I will never have a house of my own. And all I want is a simple house with a mother in law apartment so my mom and I can share the house but live in separate quarters.
Being in vermont I’m surrounded by rich people and my job is a pointless job fellating the egos of the rich. They hate us and we hate them.
In vermont where I live, $150k houses are now nearly $600k.
The market in vermont is a bubble. Full of wealthy people from NYC and Boston pushing out locals.
The bubble WILL pop.
You’re arguing enlightened centrism, which is completely false.
The far right has a substantial amount of people who hate Jews.
The far left had a substantial amount of people who hate Israel and zionists.
They are not the same.
When did you buy? 2017/2018/2019?
The last time I could even think of getting a house was back then, and the prices here went up at least four fold.
Most millennials I know can’t afford houses and never could. If they didn’t buy before covid they can’t buy until the market crashes again.
Also you’re not gen z. The oldest gen zs are like 25… hence mommy and daddy’s money.
Gen z didn’t have a decade of extremely suppressed wages to account for, and if they graduated right into a cush work from home “job” during covid they won’t have any financial difficulties at all. They’re not dealing with the compound lost interest of a lost decade.
I hate these people so much
Fuck gen z. Millennials have had it way worse and have been beaten to death by the economy since our late teens.
Also it’s mainly mommy and daddy buying them houses.
They didn’t graduate into the worst economy since the Great Depression, and then when they finally regained their footing get the rug pulled out with covid. And the cost of housing quadruple. Nah. In fact wages skyrocketed under covid if they were lucky enough to get a work from home “job”.
But you say the “far left” “hates” Jews.
The far left hates Israel. The far left hates zionists. The far left does not hate jews.
Meanwhile the far right are literally Nazis marching around with swastikas.
But yeah they’re totally the same 🙄 you’re really great at playing dumb.
And if you’re not dogmatic you can pick and choose the beliefs you learn from friends that work best with your worldview.
I love learning about all the religions - one doesn’t have to believe in them to see their pros and cons.
How do you reconcile being a good person, with respecting other people's beliefs, and not trying to convert people?
Proselytization is against Judaism. Someone who follows Judaism properly would be meeting all of those points.
That’s not to say all Jews are following Judaism properly. glares at israel in contempt
Laughs in blue collar. When this country collapses, as it is currently doing, what are you gonna do with the skills from your fancy laptop job?
