    I once had a chud explain to me that I could in fact repay my 100k+ by working more as I only needed 2 hours a day (including weekends) to eat, shower, do household chores, commute and look after my children.

    Jesus, fucking what.

      They can't acknowledge that hopeless financial situations exists as that would imply that capitalism wasn't perfect. They need to make up a hypothetical Personal Responsibility™ scenario to maintain their worldview.

        They often will acknowledge a currently hopeless situation, but then justify it as the culmination of a long string of personal failures and is thus deserved. I got a ton of "should have done this or that" type advice back when I was homeless, instead of any advice on how to escape homelessness.

        Fuck, this was absolutely me back when I didn't know shit and just wanted to believe the shit my teachers told me (they were mostly really conservative or libertarian)
