Congrats, you know how to copy paste things. Bet you feel proud of those 10 minutes you spent searching the catalog for that, aye?

Incredible. How many times do you have to say it before you have convinced yourself? How insecure do you have to be to spend this amount of time assuaging your ego?

oh my, he's doing it again. What's that about me projecting? Who's the one who brought up reddit? It couldn't be that your rant is just as ideological as any other cringe "society" theory you could find on there, could it? Remember: 4chan is not for blogposting. No one gives a shit about your worldview that is crying out for attention. Careful with that edge, Eugene.

You are taking your own experience as a general rule for everyone, when you know for a fact that everyone is not you, everyone does not live where you live, nor do they have access to the same amenities that you do. This is just wilful retardation at this point.

>Lol yes to both.
So prove it. You are so confident it is an essential career, but as you say yourself, it only benefits "thousands" of people. That is barely a blip in the world's population. Meanwhile, truck drivers are transporting food and goods across the nation for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people. Why do you think your job has any more value than theirs if you're only reaching a poxy amount of people relative to them?

>And no, I'm a specialist so I'll stick with my job, lol.
and there it is. You're not willing to do the jobs that actually require hard graft and carry a certain level of risk (particularly during the current pandemic), all because you're hiding behind a fancy shmansy degree. You are a coward anon, and this is the last reply you'll get out of me. It is far more than you deserve.

This is glorious. You're totally right, I do love the attention. Watching you all scramble to try and shut me down, but ending up more and more frustrated at your own incompetence? It's a beautiful thing to behold. I genuinely believed /lit/ was above /b/-tier logic, but I should expect nothing less in these anti-women threads. I imagine all the intelligent /lit/izens have better things to do than spending an entire thread trying to protect their fragile egos.

>in the past
there's your problem. You think your accumulation of semi-related disjecta membra over countless threads is "a lot", when in reality its probably not much more than a single thread's worth of discussion. Don't delude yourself. You're a literal college student who thinks there is worthwhile discussion to be had on 4chan. You are like a little child.

That's not even kind of what I was saying.

If you refer here:>>5055487, I said:
>a welfare state ... allows people to prosper individually while maintaining a basic standard of living for all.

I'm not arguing for a communist revolution. I'm arguing for the basic existence of a welfare state. It's obvious that I'm right, and that I don't even need to argue for it because it's not going to stop existing no matter what you do. So the only thing you can do is create non-sequitor strawmen to fearless knock down.

Enjoy your life in the welfare state, knowing that you have a higher quality of life than more than 90% of people on the planet, idiot.

>It's from Macbeth originally. Macbeth says life is... "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Then Faulkner repurposed it for the title of his great novel "The Sound and the Fury." Then I rerepurposed it for a reddit username.
