Calling my shot: "how can you expect me to worry about my little XYZ personal responsibility 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘡𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭π˜₯ π˜ͺ𝘴 𝘭π˜ͺ𝘡𝘦𝘳𝘒𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘰𝘯 𝘧π˜ͺ𝘳𝘦" will be the next loser silly thing.

Check back in ten years; "late-stage capitalism" already feels kind of tired and in need of a lookatme reboot.

And what is fascinating in a sense is, what Trump seems to embrace is some sort of mercantilism or crony capitalism, which I might call it an early stage capitalism lol

And also what some type 2 & 3 do is really counterproductive to their mental health as essentially they adopt classic catastrophization through β€œugh capitalism” while many of them also adopt therapy speaks - which actual responsible therapists themselves almost universally recommend against

I like how the initial food tweet seems to assume grabbing lunch costs an average of $30. I get two slices of pizza and a diet coke for $10 in the downtown area of a major city. It makes me wonder if these people actually have jobs, or if they're just kind of imagining what it would be like.
