Completely ridiculous that they quoted Kim Kardashian...
But I never liked how this movement picked up the name "lazy girl job". Bros can be lazy too...
I could have pulled in 6 figures after the Navy, but it would have been a shitty job that I fucking hated.
So I went back to school, got a degree that interests me, did that for a few years, then got a cushy decently paid office job that didn't care what my degree was about.
I'm not maximizing my income, but I also essentially get UBI because I'm a disabled vet.
I'm basically living the progressive dream. And if everyone got the stuff I did, we'd be happier and more productive as a society. Along with a shit ton less crime, because people have something to lose.
Our current hyper capitalist society only works for people like Kim Kardashian that start out wealthy and connected, and those idiots constantly insist the only reason they're wealthy is they work harder. I was doing manual labor before I was a teenager. There's no way in hell Kim has worked a single day harder then I did as a child, but she legitimately believes she busts her ass, all the wealthy elites do.
Because they're surrounded by people they pay to tell them what they want to hear, and everyone else is a "hater".
They quoted Kim Kardashian as a foil in this story haha
Oh thank god somebody had said it
all I want is basic media literacy lol
