This is blue:

It always simultaneously amazes and disgusts me when people jump to defend our system of debt slavery and getting metaphorically raped via taxation & inflation. “ Stop complaining it could be worse, at least we aren’t the third world” “You just gotta pull yourself up your bootstraps” “You should be grateful” We are getting a shit deal, we are expected to slave away the most functional and happy years of our lives, for scraps. Then hopefully by the time you are 70, you can stop and enjoy whatever little time you have left? Meanwhile the people running the show are robbing us blind, and all getting rich as hell doing it. Are there worse systems and circumstances? Sure, I will admit it could be worse. However, that doesn’t mean that it also couldn’t be better. Being a good slave who doesn’t complain and just shuts up and does as they are told, being grateful for scraps - doesn’t make you strong or tough guy, it makes you a compliant and malleable tool.
