Edit: Sorry I put that stupid title as a placeholder and then I forgot to replace it for something more relevant.
Disclaimer this is a full-on rant and I just want to complain
I see this on Facebook since I periodically gotta keep up with the animal videos my mom and dad like to put on my wall:
It says "If the ones below get up, the game ends"
Well haha the ones below are just waiting for the ones on top to drop the next iPhone right? The last TV, the last console, etc etc, except they can't make ends meet because the greedy banks charge them interest on their maxed out credit cards!
Friend comments on Facebook "Nah the ones up there never did anything in their lives, they just make bank from people"
Really? Really MF? Do you know how Rockefeller started? Ford? Oprah? Whatsapp's founder? Starbucks founder? etc, etc, etc, etc? There's TONS of examples on Google. Y'all just have excuses for why your life isn't up to you and it's always someone else's greed or w.e. You're so exploited omg I feel so bad. "This is just feudalism, the one owning the land scratches his a$$ while we work it" Well if you are so noble and smart why don't you save and get a piece of land of your own? Oh I bet you have an excuse for that too, don't you. (Spoiler: he did)
There's this X ad about stuffed animals that become hoodies popping on my IG feed (which btw only has a few artists and that's it), just like PillowPets but with hoodies. I go in to ask whether they come up all wrinkled when you unfold them. Random comment "sigh, I don't see any brown kid, nice ad" What? Did you even look at the whole ad, for starters (because there were several ethnicities, for the sake of the argument), do you realize a small business might not have money to hire a bunch of models and might be using just family friends or w.e....but if you are going to point out representation how about you do it in a less passive aggresive way? Takes the seriousness out of your plea and makes you look like an idiot.
That's just today and yesterday.
WTF is wrong with people? Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to say I'm morally superior but it's like this constant battle staying connected to society and just wanting to get a brickphone and keep informed through the little TV headlines on my job's elevator because I'm so tired of reading nonsense!!
I'm so disconnected, it even feels lonely. Whatever happened to making a logical argument? Ah no let's just throw ad-hominem fallacies that'll work, I win. UGA UGA yo momma so fat real socialism hasn't been tried yet!! Nordic countries are socialist just because they have welfare and UBI!!
Hold on how about you rethink that statement? -AH NOOOO, YOU ARE SUCH A SNOWFLAKE FOR POINTING MY FLAWED LOGIC OUT! LOOK AT MY ONE AND ONLY EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTS AT BUZZFEED SAYING YOU ARE WRONG!
...
I swear I want to be more social why is it so hard to find common sense. I don't even want to be right most of the time, I just want to exchange ideas. That's why I don't delete or hide people with different ideologies. But they make it impossible! I don't want to look at my phone, then again I don't want to be isolated, wtf is one supposed to do.
