LPT: Don't be fooled by the "working for a dream company" ideology. You'll be much better off with an amazing boss at an average company who champions your work, allows you to develop mastery in your field, and gives you autonomy.

Another pseudo intellectual who resorts to redirects and personal attacks when he doesn’t get his way. Boo hoo. I wouldn’t say I’m a loser, I’m very proud of how far I’ve come, and the things that I’ve accomplished.

And I do think it’s really funny and not all that shocking that the guy advocating for the forced reallocation of property, going back into the woods to live like a caveman, is also the same guy who’s shamelessly living on someone else’s dime, doing nothing to live out his ideals besides arguing with strangers on the internet. We knew plenty of kids like you back in university too. Most get their shit together and find something to be proud of, rather than riding on someone else’s coattails. The rest are “failures to launch” who continue to be chronically un/underemployed, bitter that everyone around them found success but they haven’t (despite having the same, or better opportunities/aid). I think I can take a good guess at which one you are. Stay mad. I said wannabe communist for a reason.

As someone whose parents lived through communism, who personally knows literally hundreds of people who escaped and found better, easier lives under capitalism, it’s always hilarious to see some spoiled western kid spouting off about something they’ve only read wikipedia articles about. Epitome of privilege.
