Boomers are leaving a world to their descendants where all the food is carcinogenic, healthcare is harmful vaccines and addictive pills for profit…

You never look around the supermarket and realise almost all the shit there literally gives you cancer and is poison?

Of course, I don't buy any of it though. It's all garbage. I've just adjusted my diet and spending habits to not include any of it.
I have a system but anyone can do it (even aids patients).

You never pay your taxes for the year and then realise you can’t even get clean drinking water in return?

I pay as little as possible into the system and expect nothing in return.

I do, and it makes me sperg, plus the whole vaccine fucking bullshit we just went through. I take care of myself, caught covid and was completely fine and then was ostracised by fat people who never lift weights because I wouldn’t take a vaccine that gives you aids. How do you not go schizophrenic in that world?

That's easy. Everyone you meet is on the Pay no Mind list until they prove otherwise. Just keep lifting and ignore the chaff.
Anything covid related is a waste of time now, even the anti side.
get that sink count up so you can sell out to some chump and retire off grid.

Millennials and Gen Z and beyond will get even through inherited wealth, which I think is really going to be the only way to own real estate and assets for the majority of people going forward. It’s all going to lead to greater inequality, which is really just natural order taking effect.

It's fucking depressing when you look at what buying power guys had from the 60s right up through to the 90s. I've got a killer job and make a really great salary and I'm firmly planted in the middle class when a generation ago I'd be able to afford twice the house I have today.

Going back to the 1970's and adjusting for inflation, the salary I make was way higher above the national average back then than it is today. Also it's worth noting that the productivity of your average employee is way higher than 30 years ago, but the salaries have not increased in the same ratio.

The reality is that we all seem to be getting fucked by (((someone))) further up the economic chain.

I'm in a lead role at a decent sized US tech firm and my buying power is less than one of my elderly relatives who left school with no quals and joined the police force. Another relative worked for the council on what is known to be low fixed pay and they bought 2 houses so they could spend their retirement at the coast.

Two sides of my boomer family, both hippies. We're only getting things from one side because her husband croaked. They had plans to buy an RV and light their wealth on fire like faggots. Im glad he died. Fuck him and fuck you.
The other side, fuckin guy went on a crack binge for a couple years in his 70s and smoked it all/fucked it all away.

Yea, My parents are retarded. I was bitching about my rent and my dad was talking about how it's normal to be that high. That asshole owned 3 houses in his life time. His Ex wife got one, and the other two I lived in. Fucking bullshit.

 

[Ha Ha Ha Holeee Shit!]

I tried a few churches near me and they had “trans are actually gods children” posters and pride events.

I’m still trying to find a real church I can attend regularly.

Find an evangelical non-branded Church. Go on their website and find their set of core beliefs.

There are many churches which will spell out and state that the homo-culture is a sin. They stop short of saying they (((homos))) aren’t welcome there but it’s implied.

Yours in Christ,
Hahaha

Why buy a home when most of the country isn't worth living in?

 

[Imager]

Why buy a home when most of the country isn't worth living in?

A sense of stability, control, importance, and community. Skin in the game. Most people can't leave the country.

Islam is the fawkin' light, tobeawkistwitchu

If I were to break down THE ONE grift society here keeps falling for (that Islam will fix:)

Mistaking "license" for "freedom".

Community? In 2023? My neighbors leave their house still on the phone.

As an American, I'm curious to why you spell realize as "realise"

 

[guest]

Is it that bad in America? Life is pretty sweet here.

It is not. I believe you folks call this whinging

As long as you are not poor life is PFG here!

Me? Half my family are British and I mix things up often. Colour / color whatever.

I'm not even being elitist. One of my oldest friends teaches in a British school in Spain. His wife does some bullshit online part-time marketing job. They own a nice house with a pool and have three sons they can support seemingly with no major problems. Don't think they have a lot of disposable income, but they seem happy!
