You went against the cult. How dare you!

I know people who now take many medications and aren't affected. Overdoing is also wrong. It's always better to understand the cause.

Weird... why is piracy growing then? Every reasonable person should pay $300 to watch the shows they want on the weekend... and then pay a couple more hundreds in the theater.

And like I said before, this is typical 101 cop out. You say something stupid, and when you're proven wrong, the other guy becomes a troll.

Yeah, again, no shits given.

I don't think anyone even records this stuff in Venezuela or Syria anymore, and due to corruption no one cares. You have no idea how chaotic things are there. I know people there who got shot and never got even picked up for weeks because no one dares to cross that street anymore. The stories are horrifying.

Please stop making excuses. Once you have no more food, clean water, electricity, and persistent hyper-inflation, then let's have that discussion again.

The irony I see here is that people keep saying that Norway is amazing socialism and everyone should do that in the US... I'm not from the US for the record. Let's not get into that discussion, but it's just an ironic thing coming to mind.

I'm not saying that every indivudal is having a hunky dory rosy life. Compared to many in the world, your life is still better. I'm all for discussing individual problems, but not the stupidity of "feel bad for me because we had 4 crises". I complained about health care in Europe repeatedly because it's a joke. I would've died too, btw. I was saved outside of Europe, luckily, by sheer coincidence.

And btw, your grandma would've died even earlier in Syria or Venezuela. Sorry for your loss. But you still have it better than others, and I'm absolutely not against discussing problems that affect society, instead of complaining about vapid, fabricated non-issues just to feel bad for a "generation", like 4 crises. People in other countries wish they have 10% of what you have.

You can complain about individual problems where we can discuss solutions, no problem. But this whole "4 crises" trend that has been going on for like a month is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. It's not constructive, and very stupid, because if we're gonna talk macro economics, the majority of westerners live a lavish lifestyle compared to others in the world. However, that doesn't mean there aren't individual people who have problems, like yourself. So, talk about your individual problem (student loans, dating market, crunches in jobs, work/life balance, etc), and don't complain about the macro situation. it doesn't make any sense.

No, OP should not post that they're miserable or whatever because they had "4 crises". This is an improvement even compared to 200 years ago. Only baby boomers were so lucky not to have so much problems. Almost every other generation before had it worse + almost every other country in the world has it worse. OP's complaint shows that they don't appreciate the good life they have, despite the "crises" that happened, compared to the majority of humanity, whether in this time or in history.
