    I find happiness in demanding that I get paid what I am worth, rather than rolling over and trying to make due with less.

    I wasn’t really speaking honestly when I said that I personally can’t afford to go camping, I am just ridiculing your belief that people are just failing to make the most of life, when life fucking sucks hit shit for millions of people right now.

    Nobody wants to hear you pretend that economic issues don’t matter. If that makes you feel better with your own lot in life, more power to you, but nobody wants to hear your “If I can be happy so can you” condescension from anyone when they’re talking about how wages are stagnant and the working class can’t afford basic luxuries as a reward for their hard work as previous generations could.
