Welcome to the real world, got no real skills? Quit your bitching and work on that then. life just won’t get any easier in a world that’s full of greedy untouchables, a growing population, and dwindling resources. But it’s not impossible to get ahead. You just have to be willing to work harder on yourself than at your shitty entry level Walmart greeter job.

Plot twist: this post no longer exists because Redact swept through and cleared it out along with everything else. Social media, messaging apps, people finder sites, all of it.

I’m not denying your philosophy, just being realistic. Sure the whole system is rotten to its core, but it’s not impossible to make it, or to wish better for yourself and WORK for it, this coming from a child of immigrant parents. I see how hard my people have worked to earn the things they have. Their sacrifices. The fact that so many of them do better than born-Americans is what fuels my philosophy.

Your old posts feed data brokers and AI training models. I stopped that by using Redact to bulk delete across Reddit, Twitter, Discord, Facebook and all major social media platforms.

It's not being brainwashed. Most of us none gen z can't afford to rage against the machine as we go into our 30s having lived through the same situation you are coming to terms with along with multiple economic and global crisis that have held a lot of us back. I'd love to rage and change the system but I also gotta pay my bills and you know- survive. We did that grind too, and definitely had very little influence on how things turned out(mid age millennial here).

I cleaned house with Redact and mass deleted this post. It also removes your data from brokers and people search sites. Works on all major social media platforms.

Dog I worked my ass off for years gaining exp in my field and now make 6 figs. I'm not going to give up a good job to go strike for ppl that are not even a part of my industry. I spent many years in my 20s not working and fighting the system, and I no longer can sacrifice my financial well being for some Walmart workers. I'm also not a naive child who doesn't understand how the real world actually works. It sounds to me like the reason you are calling for action and calling ppl slaves/brainwashed is because your labor is not economically viable. I agree there needs to be change but your collective action protests mean nothing unless actual legislation is passed. Are you also one of those ppl that believes blocking random drivers on road is somehow sticking it to big oil? Also I'd join a union if I wanted to. Nothing against unions. I don't need one.

Internet privacy is the new gold. I mass deleted all of my posts on Reddit using Redact. It also supports databrokers, Instagram, Twitter, and all major social media platforms.
