Let me put it like this. Our gas price is around $8 per gallon. Our average wages are almost 3x lower. Government feels like a circus, our prime minister even recently stepped down. There’s lingering threat or an invasion.
Life’s good. Sure, I can’t travel the world or buy expensive cars, but that’s normal. Not too long ago majority could not afford more than a bed and few accessories, including in US. Can you imagine the world where everyone could fulfill their presumably capitalist dreams of being rich? What would be the consequences of mass consumerism and manufacturing?
Feels like you have lived in the golden age for so long you forgot how it’s like to be normal. Enjoy what you have and stop stressing over shit you can’t change.
Solved? You’re not going to be doing any solving whatsoever besides fixing relationships with friends and family after being a grumpy old ass brainraped by fox news.
I meant that about people who are constantly grumpy and angry, people whose entire online activity is expressing hate and anger. I meant half of lemmy. I’ve noticed this platform is quite depressing in comparison to others. You could say “more politically active”, but your hate means nothing when it’s echoed in a bubble and eventually it becomes tiresome to others.
This meme is literally threatening to beat someone up for being happy
I don’t think you understand humor. The mood of the world, not just Lemmy, has shifted and for good reason. This is a fact. Coincidentally, people are allowed to joke about that fact without someone ragingly inventing a lot of baggage to go with it.
Nope. 1/2 of the countries in the world are doing worse than US. Trump regime is temporary and US will not collapse.
My father-in-law says the same thing. “The law is the law, just let it work itself out.” The man’s faith in the system is unshakable.
Well that’s a bold comment, let’s see how it plays out
Goes well with your username for sure 🤣
This comment alone is probably dumber than anything I’ve ever written, and I’m sure I’ve said some shit stupider than I can even remember.
That’s maybe true, but not sure if it’s any consolation

Sick, pack it up everyone! It’s been solved.

It’s a joke, lot of assumptions here too.

And my initial comment was a joke too, till everyone got emotionally attached and I had to start defending my dignity
