That’s why you’re at “peace,” right? It’s easier to pretend you’ve chosen solitude than admit you were never invited.

Then why give my opinions the time? I'm not forcing you to.

You have an ignore button. You are able to use it if you wanted to.

Functions like blocking and ignoring people on the Internet hasn't helped younger generations either imo.

My main reason for believing that is they're not ready for the real world where they won't be in an echo chamber anymore, and they'll have to hear opinions that they might not like, which you need to develop a thick skin for that kind of thing from an early age.

I think it's because you have the hots for me.

I don’t need the ignore button. Watching you talk in circles trying to sound wise is actually fascinating. You post to be noticed, then pretend you don’t care when you are. It’s not that your opinions bother me—they just confirm exactly why you’re still having this conversation alone.
And now it’s because I secretly fancy you? That’s adorable. When the arguments run out, flirt with your critic—bold strategy. Truth is, I respond for the same reason people slow down at a car crash. Morbid curiosity. You’re not being ignored because you’re “too real”—you’re being humoured because it’s honestly a bit tragic.

A very spot on assessment.

You're wiser than I thought you were.

Good choice, it fits you well.

In all seriousness, I would say I am a communist - I believe in a free market economy, and would say I am more a Libertarian.

You do know that communism makes facism look a picnic when it comes to genocide?

Oh dear, that was a typo ! I meant to say I am NOT a communist, hence why I believe in a free market economy.

I don't think we're at risk of generations not working, I think younger generations just appreciate a better work-life balance. I subscribe to the idea that you work to live, not the other way around. I might be seen as unambitious because I am not climbing some corporate ladder, but I have a low mortgage, have loads of free time, have 3-4 holidays a year seeing the world and exploring new places. I enjoy my life immensely. Most of my family have died before the age of 60, including my father. I'm not of the idea I should be busting my ***** to build a career just to die before I can reap the rewards. I'm reaping the rewards as I go. Life is too short, and I firmly believe that's what younger generations believe too.

I personally think that's fair.

I'm just a talentless and lazy ****er unfortunately.

Oh no, I totally agree with that but you also need money to be able to travel etc. I'm 100% on board with the work to live mantra
