    Everything.

    • We are run by an oligarchy of nihilists that gladly want to make humanity go extinct to buy yachts they can already afford.

    • I am constantly told I need to lower my expectations for everything day by day, and then told I am entitled for simply wishing for the life a white boomer had in the 60s. If that makes me entitled, what does that make the white boomer that DID get to experience all that? No, I’ll never own a house, now even renting is out of reach. Looks like porky’s all set with his workforce and the only jobs left pay 14 an hour tops.

    • Just how fucking boring this world is. Look around you, there is so much to see and do and you will never experience any of it because you were not born a multimillionaire. You will never experience the beauty of Sierra Nevada, you will never get to enjoy Niagara Falls, even if you are lucky enough to have stable employment. Americans proudly call vacation a thing of the past, and the few times people do go on vacation, it’s practically suicide for their career.

    • Bigotry is somehow being paraded as this noble thing, actually and that actually being tolerant is supposedly this sign I’m some big dumb-dumb.

    • If blue cities are so bad, why are property values there so high? Shouldn’t red areas have higher property values since most people are fascists and want to live in a place where minorities are more optimally oppressed?

    • If this country hates me so much, why isn’t it easier for me to simply move to another one? Even kkkanada would be leagues better than this shithole.

    • Some of the worst atrocities being justified because it is for “the economy”. Ol’ Vivek argued that climate change isn’t real because if it was, the consequences of doing something about it would hurt “the economy”, as if consumerism is a human right that transcends clean air and water. Hence my first point about us being run by nihilists. If they sincerely believed in God, they wouldn’t be doing this, or be claiming “it’s okay, I’ll be dead before anything bad happens! YOLO!” They only believe in their God whenever they need a justification to do whatever they want. Ironically, God seems to tempt more people into sin than Satan and Lilith combined

      Regulations stifling the building of new accommodating housing. Large cities in some red states have massive apartment complexes. Up to you to decide if you like that living arrangement but it lowers prices.

        Cost of flight and hotel, or cost of gas and wear to your vehicle if you drive, time needed to take off work if needing a half day’s drive to reach. Time+Money=freedom which is something American’s that live below six figures incomes just don’t fuckin’ have.
