Seriously, I wanna fucking leave my house every fucking day. They work everyday, all day and are exploited for their work, have bad health that they have no time to take care of and are so devoted to defending millionaires for "creating jobs" that they cannot accept that what creates value is labour. They hate the government and see it as bad, I agree, the bourgeois democracy is terrible, but when I say that, they don't believe in it. State owned equals inherently bad, seriously, its so hard to see the truth and ALMOST EVERYONE around you is a chud, a lib or at best a soc dem. And thank god for soc dems here, because at least they aren't anti-communist, at least some of them. Every fucking time I have to argue with a lib, I want to organize harder

People get very invested in things. Call "sunk cost fallacy" or just a lifetime of all pervading propaganda... It is particularly difficult for older people to fundamentally change their worldview. Even when things begin to get more difficult under that system, they double down on the belief that the system is sepf-evidently right, it's just that someone must be fucking with it to make it not work like it used to.
