    "You will become more conservative when you get a job."

    "You will become more conservative when you own a house."

    Me after owning a house for 5 years: hammer-sickle

    Unless by "conservative" they mean conserving against liberal and chud mindset.

        I already hated landlords, but having my own house made me start to hate HOAs even while my house wasn't technically part of some HOA system.

        Having grillman get so enraged at the native plants and pollinator-friendly vegetable garden I had out front to the point that they "helped" by destroying it all with their mowers while I was away with plausible deniability, smirking at me like prestige TV creeps whenever they saw me in the weeks ahead because they knew I had no legal way to retaliate, did that.

          The number of entitled boomers I’ve had go full, “this is what I get for helping people” when I’ve brought up complaints to them. The crocodile tears are wild coming out of people with grey hair.

      “You will become conservative when you get a job.” Says the people in a country where the rich see the fact they have workers as a problem to be solved and what few jobs are around are getting harder and harder to even get an interview for.

      If that’s true, then porky has zero survival instincts.

    I want the youth of tomorrow to send me to the gulag for not being radical enough.
