Guys, if your life isn't what you want, it's not because of the Jews, whites, blacks, rich, or patriarchy. It's most likely because of your own decisions.

No, not really. Rich white men who benefit from the patriarchy actively weaponize it for their own benefit. There's literally only so much "hard work" can do for on its own. Besides that, there are so many exceptions up "most likely" that it renders is moot. I can't stop being disabled, nor can I stop being queer. Both of those things have documented negative effects on a person's well-being, because the society the aforementioned rich men keep reinforcing doesn't want people like me 🤷

Are you working a full time job, have you graduated high school, and have you avoided having a child out of wedlock?

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

I've seen modern high schools. If you're not actually disabled, you can graduate without much effort. The abortion pill is available and while I'm not in favor of it, I doubt you have any issues with women taking it. Also, if the costs of rent you're experiencing are too high, find roommates or family members. If you need to learn more skills to get a better job, go do that. At this point a lot of people are caring less about college degrees (because many of them don't indicate anything worthwhile), so use this vast resource called the internet or your local library to learn.

My decision to not be born wealthy lol

It's the Nazi's in office and the billionaires price gouging every damn thing. A candy bar should not be $4.

You need to touch grass. Also if you feel like a luxury like a candy bar is too expensive, don't buy it. Duh.

by Ftmfag36 · 1 heart

Lmao I don't drive you fuckin nit witt, I walk more miles a week than you do in a year. You're distracted by the fucking candy bar, not the intellectual statement I was making regarding the price point of a common good that should be accessible to all. But this is clearly above your IQ level.

Pick up an economics textbook, learn how supply and demand works, and actually work more instead of complaining about people that are more successful than you are.

by Bldy_crayon_875 · 2 hearts

Yes, this! Exactly. Whenever you run into somebody who constantly blames others, run the other way. They will never take accountability for their actions and will blame you and their teachers and bosses and parents and anyone else except themselves. It's pretty sad and pathetic.

It's not NOT because of them, necessarily, either. Obviously having an entire demographic as your personal boogeyman and/or Satan is flimsy at face value, but you're probably under-investigating the impact circumstance has had on your life.

Agreed, took me along time to figure out, the people i hung out with, the lifestyle i lead was reason life was shit

That's 100% true try to explain that to black people and females.

Rich people sure arent helping tho

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

Actually, generally speaking, they got rich making products or services that make your life easier. Bill Gates is rich because Windows and other Microsoft products are used by many businesses because they make things easier.

I have the life I want because I don’t even watch the news or pay attention to any of that nonsense. I’m too busy building. If you’re paying attention to that bullshit or even what’s going on in the world, you’re not doing enough.

It's because of capitalism

by RopeDaddy · 1 heart

Both can be true. I dont blame israel for my mom threatening to kill me or charging me rent as a kid for her drug habit...but I do blame them for abuse of our taxes.

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

I mean, they'd need less money if we weren't also giving a bunch of aid that is promptly hijacked by Hamas and used to make weapons to attack Israel.

by RopeDaddy · 0 hearts

They have free college, free healthcare, and now they get American veteran's benefits...if they get rid of those then I will have a discussion on IF we should give them money.

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

Can we stop giving to Hamas first at least? They openly want to kill us.

by Off_Grid · 1 heart

What if you live in Palestine? Then it literally is because of the Jews

by Ignatius · 1 heart

No, it's because Hamas would rather use international aid to make terror tunnels and rockets out of pipes that a functioning sewer system and proper plumbing.

Killing babies and 2 year old children doesn’t have anything to do with hamas

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

It does when Hamas uses them as a shield. If we let people use human shields and then don't kill them because they use the human shields, that just incentivises doing that.

I agree with a lot the comment and not with some, everyone has a hand in their own future. But on the flip side some times you don't have avchoice because you aren't afforded the opportunity to get there. As a country we need to support everyone in a way (country equals community) which we should all be included. From my prospective, it's our taxing system. Everyone should be paying taxes yearly, whether is earned income or investments, when a CEO gets a big payout is in investment that they never have to worry about taking and paying taxes. If you tax Evelyn as income there would be no loop holes to slip through. You might even be able to have a flat tax rate that's fair for everyone. And still be able to live and take care of those less fortunate, though in that range realm you have to fix healthcare costs.

The rich pay the majority of taxes. Capital gains are taxed once they are actually realized.

Hate speech watch it buddy.

by Nerdy_Husband · 0 hearts

Nah, you can make an actual argument for the rich ruining people's lives. Decades of union busting means that jobs that once provided enough income to buy a house now don't even cover rent and groceries.

by GIGAN‼️RISE‼️ · 0 hearts

for me it's a combination of my decisions and my dogshit genetics. I definitely didn't choose to be disabled.

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

That is something that I'm sorry you must go through. While it might not be all comforting, I would recommend you read The Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius. He faced an awful fate yet saw the light.

I'm honest, sincere, loving, loyal, and a true. I believe in treating people as i would like to be treated. With kindness and respect. I think men and women are equal and should treat each other with mutual respect and understanding ,

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

I don't think that contradicts anything I said. You can be welcoming and respectful while still realizing that people have agency and aren't the victims of some undefined or defined shadowy cabal that's trying to ruin their lives.

by TigerLilyy · 0 hearts

It's actually bc I'm disabled but it's still not the fault of any of the groups you mentioned😂

by Ignatius · 0 hearts

And to add to this, if you blame "the system" for your lot in life, you're making the same mistake, just without assigning a specific group with the responsibility.
