    Hey sad person, my parents are super rich so I could afford to go to a fancy university that had a legit communist poli sci professor. That’s where I learned how to talk to the poors. Which is what you are.

    You see your problem is that you’re poor because you didn’t have rich parents like I did. No I’m not going to do anything to help you, I gotta get of the hair salon LOL. But now that you understand that you’re unhappy because you’re poor, that’s going to make your life so much better! Ok, I’ve done my good deed for the day so I don’t have to feel bad about having a trust fund. Gotta go, byeeeeee!

      Everytime I think rich kids must feel bad for inequality, I remember how easy it is for them to cure their own guilt with the small platitudes of progressivism that won’t at all effect the system that empowers them to our detriment.

      Unironically, yes. Specially if you also understand the reason why you’re poor.
