This isn't jealousy, it's "the system is broken, here's an example of what I mean"
Pretty based take for a reactionary shithole
People on /pol/ quite often post views which are actually leftist, but they hate brown people so much that they can't bring themselves to abandon the far-right.
There's nothing to abandon the alt right for. If the democrats decided to run on a platform that was even remotely progressive, do literally anything for worker's rights, they'd win a lot of disenfranchised voters. Obama won, and that's not because all of a sudden, just for a moment, America wasn't racist. No, it was because he promised to solve one of the problems that's killing Americans in every stratum: healthcare. Instead, we get fracker and border wall builder Harris.
that's not jealousy, it's an observation
its calling bullshit on this idiocy called the world
it can be both. who wouldn't want, at least for a while, inurement from financial consequences. And those that have it also still want to retain it. Mimetic desire or not, it is still desired by those who have or have not.
The only reason to frame not wanting to suffer as bad is if you want to inflict that suffering
Ugh, I saw that video once, cringed and moved on. I don't understand why this was passed around so much. But good for her for playing the game. I woulda buried my head in the sand if I went viral for bragging about my awesome schmowshem sloppy toppies
People say her podcast is actually good. I don't know, I haven't listened to it, but if so, then she is playing the game with decidedly more skill than just one 5-second video clip.
Honestly, I back the hustle. Even catch me outside chick. If that gets you ahead, fair does. Men have been espousing far more damaging rhetoric and making a buck. Go for it. Disclaimer: I've not listened to her podcast so she could be a Nazi for all I know. But young people, cost of living - if it works and it's not hurting you or the community, then go for it.
There is the possibility that she/staged the video. What better way to launch a talented career. It’s a different type of marketing.
Bro if she staged a viral success I'm even more impressed
Sure, but who would have thought it would blow up. She was just drunk and spouting shit, and I reckon the next day didn't even remember saying anything
Yeah life is a joke and 99% of us are the punchline.
🔥🔥🔥
She didn't become a millionaire afaik.
She has a podcast that's slightly popular and was already well off.
Anon might stop feeling so jealous if they perhaps stopped making up random facts, or believing lies on the internet?
For those who don’t know the podcast is called Talk Tuah.
Anon develops class consciousness?
Well apparently 51% of you don't agree that anything is wrong...
Explain this to me. Do you mean that 51% doesn't include a large share of the 79% of Americans who say the country is on the wrong track? Has been for, oh, the last four years? Perhaps if the 49% had got their way instead it would have abolished capitalism and absurd celebrities somehow? As opposed to reinforcing the status quo?
more than 4 years, bud
Anon discovers that life often isn't all that fair...
Being smart and hardworking can bolster your odds, but your lot in life really boils down to how lucky you are, and how well equipped you are to capitalise on that luck.
Unfortunately the right combination of extreme luckiness and ability to capitalise on it doesn't come up all that often, so most people simply won't ever get that lucky break.
life isn't fair, but this isn't life. it's the system put in place by people. chalking it up to life not being fair is complicity.
life isn't fair that someone may be born with a lifelong disease, or they may get one later. can't do anything about that. economic fairness is something we can change.
BTW I never understood why she became popular, it wasn't that interesting or funny... but I have nothing against her capitalizing on an opportunity. she was suddenly put in the spotlight but she hasn't grifted her way there. doesn't hurt anyone. good for her. my comment isn't about her but meritocracy in general.
The economic system is as big apart of my life as the chronic medical issues I was born with. Don't know how your life functions without regards to the economy. It has been easier to get medical intervention on my medical issues, than to get society to make the economy fair. Human behavior is part of life, these abstract systems we create are a direct result of that.
of course extreme luck can be replaced by inherited wealth and daddies' connections and suddenly we are looking at a super star who would under average room temperature conditions would only make it to local news
Envious* and me fucking too.
I mean I'm jealous too
Uh, yeah, there's apparently people ready to spend dollars on services (ads, personalities)
Its called the entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe don't slave your life away and try to do something about it.
It's called being exceedingly lucky, she tells you that so don't spread bootstrap bullshit.
Damn, a person made a bunch of money by saying something amusing on camera? That's crazy bro. Probably the first time that's ever happened.
Money only has value if you believe it has value.
Money only has value if you like using it to buy food and shelter
Money only has value
if you believebecause the ones with power over everyone else say it has value.Fixed it for you. Much as we want to, we can't will away the oppression without first overthrowing the oppressors.
It's why taxes were invented. Nothing gives currency value as being beaten by not giving it back to the king's men.
Yep.
Entertainers get the big bucks because millions and billions of normal people spend a lot of time and money being entertained by them.
And we are always looking for the cool and funny next thing. And hawk tua girl legitimately entertained millions of us for 30 seconds.
THE SYSTEM WORKS
$20 can by many peanuts!
Nah that's bitcoin
