I’m tired of having an argument with a “leftist”, they throw every bad faith liberal putdown at me, yet somehow they’ve gone to all the best schools and have traveled to 6 continents for fun in their life.
Are you a member of the bourgeoisie!?!?
One guy I know from uni is the largest shitlib in the world. Absolutely “if a guy won’t vote for Hillary, he’s sexist” kinda dude. Only I know that he’s from one of the largest landlord families of his country.
my dad bounced from shit job to shit job. he got my mom to pay his tuition (cheap in those days)/living expenses so he could get a BA. she had to do all his paperwork to graduate, because he was and still is a big critic of higher education… i.e. he’s too lazy to do anything, and likes to justify it philosophically. after graduating, every once in a while he would stumble into a high paying job, because white boomer man, but he would be himself (absenteeism, disagreeable, shirking all responsibility) and after many warnings would be fired. he would frequently blow off work to bang randos too. at this point i believe he’s 3x divorced for being the same guy his whole life. when he isn’t married, he’s mooching off people and living in their guest rooms/guest houses, taking handouts, etc. that was his excuse for never paying child support.
we are now coming to the punchline:
the longest job he ever had was like 5 years. he taught history at a crazy right wing evangelical “academy” for supplemental education of reactionary homeschooling families. i am almost certain it was a chartered school that received public money too. he’s a massive talk radio chud and outspoken about a RETVRN to “family values” and thinks the unemployed are just lazy and should be cut off from assistance programs. he refuses to acknowledge any disconnect between the choices he has always made, the life he lives and his supposed value system. he can only ever be the blameless victim.
the only thing i really ever got out of that relationship is being able to recognize toxic bullshitters ahead of the curve.
