    Kinda like you telling a depressed person to “just be happy” would be helping out?

    I still don’t know where you got this one from mate.

    Telling people that owning a house is better because you’re not throwing away rent money?

    Yep

    Everyone knows that it’s not a choice they want to make, it’s simply the only option they have.

    Sure, the defenses seen here in this thread truly reflect upon that lack of options. I’m sure no one will forcefully drag you out of your comfort zone, as that might actually improve your life. And that’s scary. But earlier you said you were 16yo, so I’ll give you a few years to grow up and perhaps something I’ve said stuck in your mind and helps you to become a better person, instead of this excuse blabbering coward.

      It’s because it requires critical thinking. I need to spoon-feed harder. Ok. People can’t control chemical imbalances in their brains, and that’s what drives depression. People can’t control their socio-economic situation when they are trapped in the cycle of poverty.

      Telling someone to “just be happy” when it’s not that easy is just like telling someone to “buy not rent” when again, it’s not that easy.

      Yep

      Well, I’m glad we figured out why you think you’re being helpful. News flash bud, it’s not helpful. It’s about as helpful as telling someone to be rich because life will be better with more money.

      Aaaaand there it is. Spoken like a person who has never had to struggle. People live in towns where they have no money, no jobs available, and have crippling debt. Some have disabilities that limit their options. Some are single parents with just enough hours in the day to keep their heads above water. They struggle and fight to survive every week. It’s not that they don’t want to be uncomfortable, every day is uncomfortable, if you had ever actually struggled in life you would know this. But not every person in a hard situation can simply work hard and get out of it, that’s an extremely naive worldview.

      Also I never said I was 16 yo and I said I own a house. So not only do you lack critical thinking, knowledge of the topic you’re speaking on, and reading comprehension, but you’re also delusional lol. Look at my comment history. Please link the comment where I said I was 16. But I loved to have that insight on how you would talk down to a younger person, really shows your character. For context, I’m in my mid 30s, and actually spent my younger years in the USMC. Oh and like I said I own a house, and make good money, but I grew up dirt poor. Like hunt for food not for sport kinda poor. A struggle you clearly have never faced.

        For the latter, it is tho. And since all but a few of yall commenters have been so defensive, it just sort of enforces the idea that you guys HATE being reminded you are living your lives and are in control of it. It’s easier to shitpost on lemmy tho I agree.

        News flash bud, it’s not helpful.

        If it wasn’t my original comment would’ve been buried without much notice. At least now you’re aware that crying in your bed isn’t a viable option for success.

        Also I never said I was 16 yo

        Actually you did. I’ll provide the proof after you point out where I said I knew nothing of US housing markets. After that we’ll talk about your earlier comment on the holocaust, that was just sick man.

        See, I can be as intelligent as you are :)

        Spoken like a person who has never had to struggle.

        Getting banned from roblox isn’t a struggle kid. I’ve had my worse moments, but I’m in control and I made it better. It’s literally that easy.

        But shitposting is lemmy is way the fuck easier so keep at it. Do NOT make your Lords life any harder, they deserve their holiday at the Bahamas.

          Just proved my point lol. But yes, everyone disagreeing with you doesn’t mean you’re wrong, it just means everyone else is. There’s no way you might be wrong, no way. I mean you admitted to not understanding multiple aspects of the US housing market, but no way people who live and buy houses in the US could know more than you, a non-US resident. Lol the ego just blows me away.

          A person in a small town, with a disability, crippling medical debt, and only 1 or 2 options for a minimum wage job, who has no car. How does that person just work hard and fix it. They have no car, they have special needs that keep them in crushing debt, they have no borrowing power, and they have no money to move to a place with better job opportunities. What does that person do huh? If it really is just that easy, help me figure out how to help that person.

          If it wasn’t my original comment would’ve been buried without much notice. At least now you’re aware that crying in your bed isn’t a viable option for success.

          People are roasting you lol, that’s why it’s not buried. You’re a joke and people are clowning you but you’re too narcissistic to even realize it lol.

          Actually you did. I’ll provide the proof after you point out where I said I knew nothing of US housing markets.

          Lol I explained it in another comment you responded to. But yah, I’m sure you’ll provide proof, I’ll hold my breath there bud. Anyone can look at my comment history and see I didn’t say that, I don’t need you to prove anything.

          After that we’ll talk about your earlier comment on the holocaust, that was just sick man.

          Ok, now I’m legit worried you missed your meds or something.

          See, I can be as intelligent as you are :)

          Oh buddy, it’s great to have dreams.

          Getting banned from roblox isn’t a struggle kid. I’ve had my worse moments, but I’m in control and I made it better. It’s literally that easy.

          Your right it isn’t. And I’m sure your struggle of having to buy an economy car was rough. And having to go get your food instead of having it delivered, I mean how did you survive that?

          You sound exactly like the boomer in this comic! You took control and worked that drive thru job all summer to make your life better why can’t everyone else? I mean it’s not like the income and cost of living gap is growing at a rapid rate.

          But shitposting is lemmy is way the fuck easier so keep at it. Do NOT make your Lords life any harder, they deserve their holiday at the Bahamas.

          With how much you keep saying you love landlords and defending them I’m starting to think you are one. It would make a lot of sense actually.
