>>682194>Yeah, they are called the petite bourgeoisie, and we aren't very fond of them here. Feel free to read Marx one day, you are on a left-wing imageboard after all.Irony is, petit bourgs are the biggest contributors to porky.
I know it may not seem that way due to them having a more "cleaner" workload, but they have to review contracts and watch their backs against traitors especially amongst their own ranks. They're the ones who sell their family farms to real estate companies to make new golf courses.
The people who don't work for porky, I'm talking about self sustenance people
People who live off the land.
>I don't though? Unlike middle class boomers, I don't have easy access to real estate, and I realize zoomers grew up during COVID-19 lockdowns and a fucked up alienating world where bad news happen everyday with addicting social media apps, so I'm not surprised by them being "dysfunctional", especially regarding relationshipsCOVID only lasted a year. Unless you're referring to late zoomers/early alpha. But even so, the real problem is helicopter parenting and #metoo, which gaslights people.
And, also plain old idealism, which is a vicarious phenomenon imposed onto the youth rather than being naturally expressed by them.
>The only solace they have in the US is weed, and weed isn't a social drug.Weed is a social drug, but it's not sympathized the way alcohol is. Imo I see more sadder, meaner loners who indulge on booze.
I grow up in the Deep South where every "normal" adult prefers drinking as their drug of choice.
Cue the car accidents and fights that ensue.
If I were to smoke a Doobie in a public park, my ass goes to jail for five years.
An alcoholic acts up in the public park, he gets five months with chance of parole.
And they can still find a job.
I prefer weed to booze because booze turns into sugar which fucks up the liver. And I value my bodily coordination and memory.
Alcohol takes that away from you.
>People who talk shit about zoomers are inside their own comfortable middle-class bubble and don't understand how is it out there. That doesn't mean zoomers are right about everything they say and do tho, but they have been conditioned to behave in certain ways, which is not their fault.Which is pretty much alot of people. And the same stuff they say about zoomers are the same stuff said about millennials from fifteen years ago.
In fact, I would say there's more intergenerational similarities between people born after 1983-86 than those born before (within twentieth century context of course).
>Five years at the same company, and did have other jobs before.What work did you do?
If it's retail or fast food, I can understand your hatred for work. But that's why I advocate for blue collar training in schools because otherwise we end up with kids having to slave away in shitty customer service jobs while juggling college.
I'd rather that people be overwork from owning the means of production than being institutionally "underworked" by porkies via dead end jobs.
All in all, if we want relationships to be easily accessible and healthy, we have to make work be communal and meaningful. When you do that, everything else follows.
Because dating was originally meant for hereditary prospects.
People seem to forget this or willfully deny this, thinking that technological advancements will make people more egalitarian. It doesn't, it just makes paternalism more cushy for the plebians
