No, saying that life used to be considerably better for the average person is Chud-coded.

We gotta go back to when things were REAlL and you had to bust your ass sunup to sundown just to have enough firewood so your family doesn't freeze to death and your wife was constantly popping out kids who had a 70% dhance of dying their first year of life and you can get your lungs eaten up by TB from touching a door handle and scratching your face that was how the world SHOULD have been

youre just as bad as her

Yeah imagine having a good union job and being able to afford a house, a car, a full family, and a couple of vacations a year straight out of high school. I’m glad we lost all that due to outsourcing and mass immigration, at least we now have tranny rights and rioting niggers to kneel for.

why don't most people know how to be happy? There is always something that can make your day better, be it a nice breeze or the smile of a loved one. It's like most people are trying to want something when they want nothing.

I stil can't believe normies need to be on drugs or alcohol 24/7 to cope with their lives. That's insane. It boggles my mind how they ignore serious issues such as our current opiod crisis.

You know anon, it's not all it's cracked up to be. I used to work a factory job and it was hard work. And a computer, well it cost a million dollars and took an entire basketball court to house it. But I worked hard at that shitty factory job and bought a house then bought another house and because I was a smart investor and worked hard just since 2020 those investment properties have gone up in value by over a million dollars. Not only that, but rent them both out and pull in 5k a month while I travel the world.

The problem is your generation just expects to have things handed to them. Nobody wants to work hard anymore.

INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY AND ITS FUTURE

Introduction

1. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” countries.

For me happiness is achieved by daily kratom and zyn pouches
