A play in four acts.
1. The claim
2. The calling of bullshit
3. The calling of "read a book LOL!"
4. The reading of the book*
(only just got it so have just read the preface & introduction)
@KonstantinKisin It's going to be like the Soviet Union, where parents had to warn their kids that they're going to be told a load of rubbish and to nod along whilst disregarding it.
@jfwduffield I read somewhere that race-built galleons enabled English merchants to cut out the middleman and trade directly with people in the Mediterranean. That must have been 1550-1580.
I didn't receive 15 years of notice that my taxes were going up to fund the retirements the WASPI generation failed to save for. My friends learned about 18 months in advance that going to university would cost them ยฃ9k a year rather than ยฃ3k.
I also don't recall ministers setting out 15 years in advance that housing would become unaffordable as a result of government decisions pandering to homeowners, or that having a family would be an increasingly unrealistic dream for so many of my friends, with their incomes swallowed up by rents and taxes funding retirees.
Perhaps rather than sacrificing every single future prospect on the altar of boomer entitlement, we can just tell them "no" for once?

Can you find the racism in this interaction?
(Yes, it's a sick ideology.)
