I mean, I get it. We're also overwhelmingly neurodivergent. We've also seen people say this shit for real. We've also seen a ton of folks say "it was just a joke" to defend the indefensible. Let's add to that we don't know who we're talking to and tone doesn't always transfer to text. So a lot of us (me included) will sometimes see someone mocking jackasses and think they're the jackass.
I caught this one because I make this joke A LOT. All the time. It will never not be funny to me. My buddy is writing a song right now that's a pretty thinly veiled indictment of influencer and grind culture (it's about giving up a piece of yourself to make a buck basically, and when you're not willing to do it you don't get to eat). He was bouncing ideas off me and I made that joke.
And when he releases it I will recommend it to everyone by making the exact same joke again. Folk musicians should stick to music and not be so damned woke! Can you believe this?!? Then I'll link the song.
