Is the truth is many of us are privileged spoiled brats?

[Amouranth_GT]

We live in a time where women can say, go and be anything. We live in an era where blacks can be leaders. So why is it when I watch the news or even talk to people they act as if we live in medieval times and life is super super super hard?

We have modern fancy cars that get us to pint A and B.
We have these tools called computers that connect us to endless information
We have all kinds of entertainment
We have endless porn
We have all kinds of foods and drinks
We have all kinds of clothing
We have better designed homes and heating systems
Most people aren't hateful sociopaths like the media wants you to believe

We live in a time were your stress comes from your boss being a dick. You do not have to worry about war or these guys coming to kill you and rape your women.

Ladies you don't have to dress like this any more or act a certain way. You can literally be and do anything ya like in our modern world.

This is black slavery (Then)

This is black luxury (Now/Modern day)

Most people these days are bitter because you grow up thinking you have to be either democrat or republican. they are consumed by the negative bullshit in the news cycles The modern world keeps you bitter and hateful.

The average income human being truly doesn't appreciate just how piss easy our modern world is for them. Chances are today you'll get some food, play some video games, surf the web, go to sleep, wake up aturday, do nothing much, maybe hang with some friends on Sunday. Then when Monday comes it's back to work... you won't worry about war, bandits in the woods, slavery or farming. No you come Monday you'll be pissed because Bob took the last vanilla cream filled donut at work.

Bob is such a dick

In closing most of our modern problems comes from us being dicks to each other.

Because everything is relative.
And people are most affected by their own experience. It doesn't matter (that much) what happened in the past, because people have no experience or memory with that.

I agree with you, though. We should be far more appreciative of what we do have. I watch documentaries often; I watched one yesterday, in fact, about living through the Edwardian age in England. Now they had it rough. (Yet, not as rough as many before them.)

On the bright side, our restlessness and lack of acceptance is also what drives us, as society, and some individuals, to be better, to strive for more. It's a double-edged sword.

Overall, yes. “First-world problems”, as they say, in a lot of cases, although there are still some issues for people living this way that have merit. I think it’s more just said in the context of the world and conditions we currently live in, we can’t relate to the natural way of living where we’re in the wild literally battling to survive, but I think that’s important to keep in mind.

[Anonymous]

Yes.
Many modern day people look at the oppression and suffering of past generations and they feel entitled to pretend that it's happening now.
They pretend that they are slaves and struggling immigrants and that the white man jogging past in 2021 is a slave owner.

i pray for tough times because during those tough times the weak will be consumed by the strong and we will emerge stronger afterwards

The parasites of society need to be purged and those who dont contribute will be the first to be called on to fight. They won't last because they are weak and useless. Many women will face the same fate.

Soft Times produces soft people. Soft people dont survive.

Very true. Our privileges and comforts have made life so easy that we now have battles over which bathroom to use, when we should just be grateful for clean water.

and a super cold can shut things down and make wimps scared to go outside

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Different times different issues

[OliviaOfTheScots]

But I do agree with the general notion that a lot of us are spoiled*

[LostYahooAnswersUser]

The issues have gotten worse today. Agreed?

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Again they're different, get cancer back in 1607 and you just call it quits, now you take out 50 loans in order to pay for treatment

[LostYahooAnswersUser]

I’m talking about black issues. It’s worse today than ever before.

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Not black so I wouldn't know

[Oppressed_Leecher]

[JamieLoves]

All the kids nowadays are Fuck’n gotten brats
