    I mean, I recommend voting and being active politically and socially, but there’s always people who hate discussing politics at all and just want to live in their middle class bubble thats keeps on shrinking.

    But, sorry that people point out negative things in your vicinity, it must really suck when you’re taken out of your self-imposed apolitical safe zone.

      What a stupid retort. Are you 12? “Being active politically and socially” whatever the fuck that means.

      I’m 38 and I moved to the US from eastern Europe. You know nothing about the life or hardship I endured under communist dictatorship.

      I welcome talking about difficult topics. Let’s do that. But let’s also not kid ourselves the vast majority of you guys are not interested in having those “difficult conversations” and are only here for the brownie internet points. You want to have the adult conversation? Let’s skip the moral grandstanding about capitalism and go straight to actionable items beyond being “politically and socially active”.
