Comment on Trustafarians: When the Rich Pretend to be Poor
PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 6 months agoI don’t disagree with your sentiment taken in a vacuum, but gentrification (of housing and activities in general) is 100% a real thing and is almost always due to rich people trying to live a “frugal lifestyle.” Idk man, shit just sucks all around

Yeah, I get that but the complaint that these people with wealthy parents get to focus on art and lifestyle is a failure of the system not the person.
We should all be able to do that but only the wealthy can, so spread the wealth yeah but dont hate on arts and independent thought, trying new things and seeking an environment you enjoy.

Yeah, and like it’s kinda weird to me because in part a lot of my higher ideas and art and shit comes from my struggle as a proletariat and as some who’s sat at the do or die stage of life while trying to sleep in a car in temperatures my area doesn’t reach anymore.
Like yeah, I’d love a break, but I need us to have a break, not me
