    No, but I have the time to listen to you whine about nothing and everything all at once, granted, of course, that you’re one of those melodramatic fools, neurotic to the bone. No doubt about it.

      Yeah, I mean, sometimes I give myself the creeps. So this podcast may do something different. Or my mind may creep up on me.

    Ok wow, the Daniel Day Lewis Gangs of New York poster is a whole new level of cringe whoosh, in the same vein as the punisher worship.

      Among serious gun nuts, the Punisher thing is scoffed at. It’s a sign the person displaying that bullshit is borderline childish.

        Indeed. There’s a big fucking difference between “firearms as an interest/hobby” and “firearms as an identity.”

        As someone who claims the former, but not the latter, people of the latter usually piss me off.

    This really misses the point of falling living standards.

    It’s defeatist and basically implies that we should just be okay with bad living standards cause that was a temporary privilege.

      I kinda think that’s why the white males are so upset. It is getting harder for everyone. They’ve just never had to work as hard.

        They’ve been playing in easy mode for easily 500 years, and now the difficulty is on par with what everyone’s been playing this whole time. Sorry kid, you did this to yourself

          In the name of unity we should not generalise this much.

          People doing the bidding of the ruling class can still be victims and it is simply not true that any working class in all of history had it easy, more privileges sure! but “easy” not so much.

          We have a class problem more than any other problem and i simply do not see how telling any specific demographic outside the 1% that their life is super easy helps to change that.
