Your post is just invoking feeling in people who already hate this shit. Circlejerk material.
It’s more meaningful to focus on things which are objectively bad, like yearly rising suicide rates or lowering life expectancies.

I don’t think it’s meaningless to be trepidatious over a future most of the people on this planet will never be able to have (affordable housing, a stress free retirement).
And I dunno but calling it “a matter of perspective” feels like a lie, or a compromise, especially when knowing that we are slowly destroying our world and making everyone’s lives horrible so that a few people can enjoy themselves.
We shouldn’t fighting to live in such a dystopia.
I don’t want to say that their goals are wrong and mine are better, everyone has their bandwidth, but I just disagree that it is a matter of perspective.
I am so fucking tired of living in this world.

The framing looks bad to us because that’s not the housing we want, that’s not the vacation we want, those aren’t the toys we want, and that’s not the retirement we want.
There are loads and loads of people who love suburbs and Funko trash, and they will fight us to the death to preserve what they have.
