@Teh_Snowflake "capitalism" and it's the largest, one of the most intrusive, and most indebted government known to mankind

“WHY DO YOUNG PEOPLE HATE CAPITALISM?!?!”

@TwinkRegimer This is relevant

There's just no way leftists are this stupid. It's surely not possible.

@jorfolle @shanewallick 😂

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick it’s a rough quotation of what you said, do you know what that is

“nearly every american who wants a job has one” actually die

@jorfolle @shanewallick Lmfao couldn't even say "I" You're lost

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick “you made a mistake” okay now what

@jorfolle @shanewallick You caught me. That was my point and I was wrong. It wasn't the "you didn't need college for that" part that I was trying to emphasize. It was the online bit specifically.

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick you said “whatever you learned in college can be learned online” which is just evidently not true for historical work, which you would know if you had studied the field

@jorfolle @shanewallick For example, before I went to college, I considered electrical engineering. Then after some Google-ing I concluded that you can't really get a job with a BS in EE and you would need a Master's. You didnt do any research or reflection? Advice is pointless if you can't reflect.

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick great advice man you’re really convincing me to your side by effectively telling me i have no way out of this and should just kill kyself

@jorfolle @shanewallick Yea cuz that was my point. The online part and not the "you didn't need college" part. You got me

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick technically no, but that’s also not what you said. you said you could look online for them, which you cannot. i think you are just stupid. i don’t know why i pretended like you could offer any actual advice.

@jorfolle @shanewallick You don't have a brain of your own? You didn't apply any thinking by yourself? There were 0 doubts, regrets, mistakes? Are/were you in La La Land?

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick ??? being upset about not being able to find a job despite getting help from numerous people and doing everything “technically” correct?

@jorfolle @shanewallick You need to be in college to look at NARA documents?

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick NARA documents are mostly not digitized lol

@jorfolle @shanewallick You have not shared even an ounce of regret or self blame. I cannot help you if you can't help yourself. You're too grown to be acting like this

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick so why even engage if you’re effectively telling someone they should kill themselves because they lack worth for the capitalist machine. who does that even help

@jorfolle @shanewallick Don't do it in person next time then. Do it online

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick doing in person archival work at NARA can be done entirely online??? news to me

@jorfolle @shanewallick Work isn't valued by effort. It's valued mostly by productivity. You can spend a lot of effort digging a ditch and filling it back up, that does not mean anything of value was created

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick also once again how does any of your statements help solve the fundamental problem of “difficulty finding any work despite extensive effort.” do you understand how unconvincing this is

@jorfolle @shanewallick You were indeed given bad advice by boomers and shitty public education Whatever you learned in college can most certainly be learned online, I assure you.

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick i did not conclude it was in “high demand” i concluded it would be “able to get me a job” because that is what every single person throughout my life told me. also if you think you can learn history at an academic level for free online you are just stupid

@jorfolle @shanewallick Yea I don't blame you entirely. Whoever gave you the money, whether that's parents or the government, is also largely to blame. The economy isn't good but your major is also just not highly desired. Idk what's not clicking.

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick “heh when you were 16 did you not predict unforseeable socioeconomic changes? sucks to suck better just kill yourself” do you understand how this doesn’t make your point about the economy being good or help anyone struggling with employment

@jorfolle @shanewallick You researched it half a decade ago and concluded this major was high in demand in the market? And if you're so passionate you could have tried starting a youtube channel talking about it or something. Not spend tens of thousands on what you can learn for free online.

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick like half a decade ago? yes? it’s also the area i’m most passionate about and knowledgeable on (and have been involved in academic societies for) which is why i chose to study it at university?

@jorfolle @shanewallick Now I haven't looked up any stats, but at first observation that doesn't sound like something in high demand in the market right now. Did you do this research before picking this major?

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick history/international relations with a focus on asia (china and vietnam)

@jorfolle @shanewallick You majored in what exactly?

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick excellent suggestion for someone struggling with finding employment: “cope and die”

@jorfolle @shanewallick We were in the same position. I was just lazier than you clearly. Again you need to find some sort of super entry level program or cope with the possibility that you did not pick a very marketable major? Which is what btw?

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick i have applied for hundreds of internships, so no, you are not in my position. again how in the world am i supposed to get experience if everything requires experience that i cannot obtain

@hypocrates98 @jorfolle @shanewallick Sure OP said "nearly everyone" so that still does disprove him

@Ctrl_Fiend @jorfolle @shanewallick so they want a job and they don’t have one? so they’re correct in their statement?

@jorfolle @shanewallick Yea I was in your position and thought it was bs(it is bs) however I was also lazy and didn't apply for any internships during college but eventually got my foot in the door with some bootcamp/contracting/consulting program after college

@Ctrl_Fiend @shanewallick and why would you need work experience for those positions. how are you supposed to get any if nobody hires you
