I’ve no problem with people who can afford it focusing their lives around art, lifestyle, experiences etc.
What gets me is when such people describe it as some kind of moral choice and how people who aren’t doing that are somehow wrong, rather than “Oh my God I’m so exceptionally lucky to be able to live like this and will shut my fucking mouth to any judgement about other people who don’t have these opportunities because they’re busy trying not to be homeless”
i grew up poor. i am doing well. but the people aroppund me act like it’s a moral failing of my own that I didn’t spend 2-5 years backpacking around the world on my parents dime. I am ‘uncultured’ and ‘unambitious’ is what I constantly hear. OK… sorry I had to pay debts and build a career from the bottom because my parents didn’t give me a six figure job at their company…
i like my life a lot. i feel like i have ‘made it’. but a lot of folks were born into more wealth than I will ever have… and for folks like this… my life is unworthy and pathetic. I’ve literally been told that ‘your space at uni was wasted’ by these rich pricks because they think they deserve more than me for their luck at the birth lottery.
Yeah, and like it’s kinda weird to me because in part a lot of my higher ideas and art and shit comes from my struggle as a proletariat and as some who’s sat at the do or die stage of life while trying to sleep in a car in temperatures my area doesn’t reach anymore.
Like yeah, I’d love a break, but I need us to have a break, not me
