@Iameddascoli @thinkingwest The two of them set up the federal reserve, income tax (as we have today), social security, and both dragged us into world wars.

The FDR worship needs to end.
Putting him over Washington? Criminal behavior

I just took APUSH and genuinely forgot what a few of these guys even did
English
@thinkingwest The guy who started social security and dragged us into WW2 is not someone to look up to. He also made it temporarily illegal to own physical gold up after the federal reserve/income tax was set up by Wilson. These two destroyed the country most, by a long shot.

@dishooom @NWordBiden Nvm you're already in India, thank goodness! I think your best play is to encourage your brethren to return home, show the west what a real superpower looks like. If you do well, it will happen by 2030!
English
@dishooom @NWordBiden Yes please, show us how wrong we were. Prove it, as quickly as possible.
English
@NWordBiden 😂😂😂. Average white American comparing themselves to the culture of China 😂😂😂. ! If Indians ever leave, you will recognize what Vivek Ramaswamy (that Indian guy) had said was true - but you jocks from prom evenings were too much up your ass to know it

@MaryTracy @ed_in_my_head Lol. Dinosaur.
Make a sandwich grandma, its not that hard.

@ed_in_my_head I lived through the 80s and y'all are not going to gaslight me!

They did NOT live cheap.
They had restaurants, with tablecloth and cloth napkins.
Do NOT buy the revisionism that tells you the Boomers had a better life because they spent less money: THEY SIMPLY HAD MORE MONEY
Jim Sharp@prowrstlngstrng
I am not defending boomers, but they did generally live pretty cheap in their 20s Going out for coffee was insane. You threw Yuban into tiur Mr Coffe and put it in a thermos Eating out meant a trip to Pizza Hut maybe once a month Vacation was driving to a campsite

@sircalebhammer Its like asking Bezos about his yacht purchasing history.
Could Caleb afford a yacht? No. Its not in the budget. This is how fucking stupid these people are.
You are BROKE. Fucking act like it.
English
It fits in the budget. That’s the point.
Seed Oil Sommelier@HamasCEO
I need to see his doordash order history

@Cuhsandra @chrissyprissy35 @georgi_boorman You're the one defending people spending beyond their means, I couldn't care less if elderly/disabled people struggle. Handouts are a big part of the problem, if we cut welfare entirely, food prices would plummet due to reduced demand.
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
English
@Mycelianar @chrissyprissy35 @georgi_boorman actually that's exactly what people are arguing about
& the funniest part, is people, present company included, have their head shoved so far up their ass they think it's about singles, instead of elderly/disabled/families on fixed incomes
eat up the slop-bait wage slave
English
STOP. EATING. OUT.
Why do you feel so entitled to have someone else prepare your meals every day?
Populism is just entitlement in blue jeans.
The Refined Populist@RefinedPopulist
A large, fast food value meal costs ~$20 with tax. What are they supposed to do?
English
@Cuhsandra @chrissyprissy35 @georgi_boorman No one here is arguing that inflation and foreign influence isnt a problem. The only problem is broke people thinking eating out is a right lol. This shit isnt going to get any better until we vote dinosaurs out, and that will take decades. So in the mean time, adapt or stay poor
English
@chrissyprissy35 @georgi_boorman don't worry your tax dollars go to offsetting tax write-offs, foreign wars, and Israel
rest assured

This is…very privileged. Who tf wants to eat sandwiches for lunch all the time. Sandwiches are also not lunch ideas that provide proper nutrition. A bunch of processed bullshit and hella sodium

@EmbracingTara The free market is a mystery to zoomers. They think stuff is expensive just because corporations are heckin mean.
MY BROTHERS IN CHRIST YOU PAY FOR IT WILLINGLY. THEY WOULD CHARGE $100 IF YOU WOULD PAY FOR IT
English
Chipotle burritos cost $17 because the market supports $17 burritos
If everyone said, I'm not paying $17 for a burrito, fuck that, Chipotle burritos wouldn't cost $17.
Chipotle burritos cost me $0.00. Do you know why? I choose not to purchase them.
Is this clocking at all?

@VladTheInflator You understand that this is ragebait for engagement right.

95 women chasing 2 men ends up exactly like you think it does.

@redeemed_zoomer People get their reality from memes now, don't you know?
None of these people have even gone to the UK lmao. Let alone tried the food.
Humans got 1 shotted by the internet
English
I’ve discovered British food is not actually bad. That’s just an anti-Colonialist, anti-Protestant psy-op
English
@MerleSquirrel You are taking things personally, again.. I am speaking generally about the mentality that people feel entitled to a gourmet meal prepared for pennies every single meal. Like the original reply to the video stated in this reply chain. Boomers fucked the economy, it sucks. Adapt.
English
@Mycelianar I’m 35, don’t even eat lunch and cook dinner at home every night.
You’re wrong.
English
All of this discourse is missing the forest for the trees.
No amount of penny pinching is going to make up the gap for people today to enjoy the same quality of life their parents/grandparents had period full stop.
The cost of a home/education/healthcare/EVERYTHING is too high.
Versuhtyle@Versuhtyle
Unpopular Fact: Boomers took lunch pails and a thermos to work each day with the most basic meals and leftovers you’ve ever seen You can blame them for a lot of things Your own decision to spend bank on lazy fat gut desires rather than making meals for yourself almost every day isn’t one of those things
English
Okay, so this entire controversy is a complete lie
AJ ⚜️🇻🇦@c0ntrabane
the Boomers are absolutely right. our generation is extremely retarded with money. if you saved the money you waste on doordash, you could save up for a down payment on a house, save up for land, invest, etc. but you just don’t want to because you’re lazy.
English
@MerleSquirrel Not even close. Im 34, eating out was a luxury growing up, I dont know when it became normal to get so much fast food, but it is dangerous.
As a species, we have never been this detached from creating food, and we are unhealthy as a whole because of it. It needs to stop.
English
@Mycelianar The zoomers are closer to being correct than the boomers are
English
@MerleSquirrel We're in agreement. I've just seen so many people saying "well what else can I do!" and when shown a cheap alternative (pack lunch), they are insulted.
Ludicrous discourse from entitled boomers and lazy zoomers alike. Not you, just comments I have seen surrounding that video.
English
@Mycelianar I’m not justifying spending $30 on lunch everyday I’m saying that claiming spending habits are the reason behind generation wealth divides is stupid on its very face. The dollar amount is irrelevant.
English
@zulways >complains about poverty
>is insulted when you suggest that they live like it to save
Ok stay broke then loser

@agave_redux You and X9 are the most unhinged pair of lunatics on this app. Idk wtf your goal is but I support it

He asks for 10s. I deliver 10s.
What is he complaining about.

I’m a broken man just begging for a <10sec simple product ad, they digitally slap me across the face whenever I ask and for the next 3hrs they will pour their heart and soul into these exact videos until X9 passes out from his 3rd black cherry white claw

@posotivethinker What do you think communism is

If my whole family ate sandwiches for every meal 3 times a day only our grocery bill would still be 800 dollars a month. To follow budgeting guidelines, I would need to make 64,000 dollars a year…to afford to only eat sandwiches. You can’t budget your way out of poverty.
