there are very few individuals that are first generation rich, and even if they are, within one lifetime it becomes generational.

by default, the way things with with mortality, mixed with money, means most money out there, is generational.

and in turn, most people that don't have wealth, are at a "generational disadvantage". it is a stupid label created to label "most people's circumstances".

like yah DUH they are at a generational disadvantage, they didnt, or never had wealth.

not everyone can be wealthy, it is a pyramid. if it wasnt a pyramid then everyone would just be the same as everyone else it would just be a communist ideal.

the fact that it is a pyramid, and the fact that we are mortal, means all these liberal academic labels are "GIVENS". by "default"

aka this universe has gravity. like yah DUH no SHIT.

are we trying to get over it? ...no... what... why? you wan't it to be a pyramid, you want it to work the way it is.

the peasant can aspire to be a king. if they get lucky and or work hard enough, perhaps their kids or kids kids can have a better chance, is that not what it is all about?

if you are rich or have "generational wealth"... if you dont manage it well, you lose it all, then you get fucked and go back to being "disadvantaged"

it's musical chairs. only one person gets to sit on the chair at the end.

if there were always enough chairs for everyone what the fuck is the fun in that? what is there to aspire to?

just wait your turn... oh im poor, I just gotta wait my turn to get the chair, cuz the system will put the chair under my ass because of my circumstances.

and if you're rich, the system will pull the chair out of the bottom of your ass one day to pass it away for... no reason other than "it's time".

...no one would bother trying to climb up if they knew that would happen.

only the poor would vote for that, and as soon as any poor person sat on the chair, they'd never wanna give it up, it would just default back to the exact same situation we are in now, and we have been in since the dawn of man kind.

the system is already near perfect when measured as a whole


the whole "generational disadvantage" is like the medieval term "unfortunate" LOL. "the unfortunate" are born into their state, how unfortunate... NO SHIT SHERLOCK.

Hopefully he actually doesn't get assassinated as much as I'd like to see his brain splattered across a window.
The negative effects on the American people will be too big if that happens.

If he wasn’t such a fucking hand talker and if that gen z kid spent more time at the range and less time playing call of duty, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

I had to put it through ChatGPT:

Quote:

Wealth is mostly passed down through families, so being at a "generational disadvantage" just means you didn’t inherit wealth—it’s obvious and natural. Society is like a pyramid: not everyone can be rich, and that’s what drives competition and ambition. If wealth were equally distributed, people wouldn’t work hard or strive for more, and the system would eventually go back to the same structure anyway.

The current system works as it is because it motivates people to climb up while accepting that inequality is part of life. Losing or gaining wealth depends on how you handle it, and the idea of "fixing" this system wouldn’t really change anything long-term. It’s just how things are.
And then out of curiosity I asked ChatGPT what they thought the mental state f the author was when they wrote it:

Quote:

The original author seems to have been in a highly critical, possibly frustrated state of mind, grappling with societal inequalities and the futility of trying to "fix" systems they believe are inherently unchangeable. Their tone comes across as cynical, combative, and dismissive of idealistic or academic approaches to wealth and class disparities.

Their arguments are logical in structure, even if they’re delivered in an emotionally charged and somewhat abrasive manner. The use of sarcasm, hyperbole, and rhetorical questions suggests they were venting or expressing strong personal beliefs rather than aiming for a calm, balanced discussion.

It feels like they were reflecting deeply on the nature of wealth and social hierarchies, with an undercurrent of resigned acceptance—believing that inequality and competition are natural, unavoidable parts of life. They also seem impatient with what they perceive as naive attempts to redefine or challenge these systems, seeing them as futile or self-contradictory. Overall, they likely felt intellectually engaged but emotionally jaded.

Financial Times: Donald Trump in fiery call with Denmark’s prime minister over Greenland

Quote:

Trump had been aggressive and confrontational following the Danish prime minister’s comments that the island was not for sale, despite her offer of more co-operation on military bases and mineral exploitation.

“It was horrendous,” said one of the people. Another added: “He was very firm. It was a cold shower. Before, it was hard to take it seriously. But I do think it is serious, and potentially very dangerous.”
I wonder how long it will take for the wakeup call to happen? Even his low level voters who just wanted cheap eggs, or dumb Canadians who think it's funny, are going to have a breaking point of what they'll accept as more than "comedy" or "trolling".

Hondaracer 01-24-2025 03:39 PM

lol like what’s your point? Do you think your “average” person can do a thing?

It’s almost like… elected officials should be standing up to him?? lol ffs..

If everyone thought this way there would never have ever been any changes from social movements? People are supposed to be able to band together and effect change in an actual democracy.

I mean you can sit on your hands if you like, but not sure why you'd preach that to the American public.

Hondaracer 01-24-2025 03:44 PM

I’m ready to vote bro, call an election

What can I do to stop the prorogued parliament? Tell me and I’ll do it

I dunno what those Trump wankers are thinking, but the ones that I have come across in the social media cesspool are still cheering for his 51st state and Greenland purchase claims, essentially saying how "the weak" should submit the US.

Again, I have no clue WTF these wankers are thinking. Maybe they'd enjoy having their homes ransacked by mobsters too since those mobsters would be "the strong" party, while they are "the weaklings" to be taken advantage of?

Fxxking idiots...

Hondaracer 01-24-2025 04:05 PM

Well if you’re from the states what don’t you like? Everything is pro America clowning on the rest of the world and everyone else is too soft to push back. It’s exactly what they voted for.

I don't know. Two people tried to shoot him already, before he even started doing this president shit

At the very minimum let's see people stop acting like cucks.

He was confirmed after a 51-50 vote… Vance made the tie breaking vote.
