    There’s nothing privileged about quitting a job. People do it all the time. Including people who really need money.

    And I don’t know why anybody who has been so “poor” and then becomes “economically satisfied” like you claim can “hate the system”. That is idiotic, and your token self-flagellation as an anon on a back-water federated Reddit alternative does not absolve you from your sins or grant you the brotherhood you so pathetically seek.

    That being said, I agree with the first part of what you said. Anyways. Muting thread.

      So my comment was meant to be a shared experience of struggle that others could hopefully relate to in solidarity. Not an opinion or argument. That may not have been clear from my comment.

      There’s nothing privileged about quitting a job.

      I would 100% disagree with your statement here. There absolutely is privilege in being able to quit a job for some other reason than “I fucking need the money to feed my family this week”

      Maybe you have never been in such a situation? I have, and I’ll tell you that it fucking sucks. Having to choose between moral values you hold very close to heart and risking not having a paycheck to care for a number of dependents is not a decision that any person should be forced to make.

      The rest of your comment follows from the assumption of a misunderstood conclusion of mine, so I will stop here. Don’t mind clarifying anything though.

      Edit: Also, what does “muting thread” mean? Is that “adult speak” for “I don’t wanna talk to you anymore”?
