People are checking out because the middle class is non-existent. It doesn’t matter how hard you work - the the prospect of getting ahead, owning a home, retirement is out of reach for the vast majority of people.
People can work hard and stress themselves out or they can check out of the system and achieve largely the same result.
This is about the failures of late stage capitalism. To claim the issue is free healthcare is gaslighting.
Gaslight
Obstruct

Time for another round of:
“Turn on, tune in, drop out.”
Waaaay ahead of ya haha
This is about the
failuressuccesses of late stage capitalismFTFY
Is this free healthcare you speak of in the room with us right now?
Is he mad that young adults can stay on their parents’ health plan until age 26?
Which the parents pay for… They just don’t know what words mean anymore.
Meanwhile: Politicians who never had a day of honest work their entire life.
Where are they getting free healthcare from? I’d like it. Oh does Canada have this problem? No? Huh
We still have widespread disengagement in Canada too because the problem isn’t the healthcare.
The problem is wage suppression and corporate greed.
free healthcare
does he think everyone in the US gets the same healthcare that congresspeople get?
Probably.
Where are they getting the money for the games? Those are expensive as shit, I’m still making do with games I bought decades ago because I can’t afford new ones.
How are they eating? Food is fucking expensive, are they getting free food as well?
How are they paying rent? Have to have a roof over your head and electricity in your walls to play video games all day.
This mother fucker thinks all guys are like his son, lazy mother fuckers mooching off their parents. What a dumb, ignorant moron.
I think he might be speaking about 16 year old boys. He seems mad that they’re children instead of working father’s.
Where can I get this free healtcare that pays your rent?
By getting elected to Senate or Congress
So us person here. This free healthcare he speaks of is news to me.
He gets free govt Healthcare and probably stays at home playing video games. It’s all projection.
With fascists every accusation is an admission
This is rich coming from someone that has literally never worked a days labor in their lives.
Young men as a cohort have a 90% employment rate.
how do i leech off of free healthcare that sounds really good
Become a congressperson, they get Medicare for life just like every other citizen should have but don’t because Congress will grant it to themselves but not everyone else. If it’s good enough for them it should be good enough to cover us.
Get elected to the US Congress. They don’t do anything and get 6 figure salaries AND free Healthcare!
Yeah how does that work? How do I get my Healthcare to pay my mortgage?
Be disabled, be elderly, be a guy working multiple jobs and still not make enough to be above the poverty line.
Free healthcare doesn’t pay rent or utilities. I would love to stay at home and play video games regardless of my healthcare status, but I simply couldn’t afford to.
The amount of dirty looks I got today casually playing slay the spire on my steam deck as a 41 year old man in the waiting room of a medical facility was pretty impressive.
I’d give you dirty looks as well if you weren’t playing on A20 and fighting the heart
They were wondering why you weren’t playing Balatro.
Sure. Let’s just pretend video games are free. And so is healthcare. Also, how much health care does he think young people use? This is a stupid argument.
I’m flabbergasted
Didn’t you know sex is bad? It’s absolutely reprehensible and the only allowable exception is for the purposes of procreation, where you are allowed only to use the missionary position and your lawfully wedded wife is to be completely obscured by a blanket covering her entire body apart from a small hole in her crotch area. You can not look down or touch her body with your hands at any point, you should be reciting prayer the entire time and preferably keep one hand on the Bible during the whole process.
All other ways to engage with sexual acts and sexuality are unnatural, ungodly and frankly disgusting.
Young men who are capable of playing video games all day are likely depressed, and have a clinical problem. Our volition to be productive was demonstrated during the 2020 lockdown and the great resignation of 2021-22, in which young men (as with all other working demographics) learned:
- They felt better in a non-toxic work environment
- They couldn’t couch potato for more than a week without getting fierce cabin fever, and
- They got highly skilled when they were doing a thing they liked.
The ones who resigned from old jobs were the ones who were able to monetize their hobby enough to quit. Many more got productive, but didn’t find something in their craft for which there was a ready market.
Speaker Johnson is a fierce MAGA and conforms to the common fascist trope of never speaking in good faith. See Sartre’s antisemite quote.
With several perspectives including that crunch remains a thing in AAA game development, our ownership class and CEOs are less concerned about maximizing profits than they are being lords with a feif and peons (compulsory servitude).
Oh and death to all monarchists. Disney deaths preferred.
