>>12376399The idea of a gift requires people you love. That's what's driving me. And yes, lots of stuff pays, but it's going to get hard. That MSNBC article about 400k not paying for a luxury lifestyle by any stretch, and people responding by hissing that the example family should be grateful, that has me down. Rather than asking why those who've done everything right are increasingly living the Sudra life and bleeding endlessly through a thousand tiny cuts to ravenous service "entrepreneurs", they dream through an austerity filter, and accept dehumanising designations from invisible capital. Rather than ask how we ended up here, the untouchables are envying the Sudra. Not good. How do we respect ourselves again? Did we ever, really?
