@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth So now you don't want to believe your own source because it doesn't fit your bias. Got it.
Good night.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth So, since you are ignoring your own source because you linked something which doesn't support your confirmation bias and can't acknowledge it, I'll bid you a good evening.
Remember, per YOUR ARTICLE, the majority of people are doing better than you are, not a "tiny minority".
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth Then why are sixty percent of Millennials middle class, and the minority are below the poverty line?
Again, this is YOUR source below.
"I have it bad, so everyone has it bad."

@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth You linked this, and clearly didn't read it. Sixty percent of Millennials are middle class, but to you, that is a "tiny majority" of successful people. That is a twist of reality.

@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth Your mistake is seeing yourself as a victim after twelve years. The job market hasn't been that bad for awhile, look at the chart I linked again, and there certainly are a wealth of jobs now, so you don't have an excuse any more. You can stay bitter or change your life.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth No, you are responsible for your attitude towards it. It has been twelve years, and you still see yourself as a victim, when sixty percent of us aren't.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth YOU aren't middle class, so you need to twist reality to make everyone who is doing okay a "tiny majority", when your own sources say it isn't true.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth "Today, just 60% of millennials (those born between 1983 and 2002) are considered middle-class"
So you're cherry picking your sources, now? Sixty percent of Millennials are middle class. The minority are below the poverty line. It isn't a "tiny minority" of success.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth You possess the mistaken notion that the majority of Millennials are struggling and unsuccessful, when you don't even look at your own sources enough to see it isn't statistically true. In any case, there are a wealth of jobs out there now, so go make it happen.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth Your fallacy is assuming that anyone who has it better than you was "tossed softballs". That is massively untrue. That people who aren't struggling NOW were just "given" things that you weren't; you refuse to see your own mistakes or culpability in your situation.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth One of the news sources you quoted listed sixty percent of Millennials being middle class. Your twisting reality is saying "tiny majority of people who are doing well", when in reality, the minority is those below the poverty line.
So yes, you are modifying reality.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth Your situation will not improve, ever, if you see yourself as a victim.
Even when things were hard for me and my partner, I never, ever, EVER saw myself as a victim. I learned and got better at playing the game that is being thrown at me every damn day on this rock.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth Sixty percent isn't a tiny minority, it is the majority. The minority of Millennials are those below the poverty line.
You have twisted reality to match your worldview.
@OldSkoolLeftist@billytedddy @KeepLifeInCheck @wealth I think it left out a lot of key factors, as I already mentioned, and as you have already agreed.
This discussion is pretty pointless. You have yourself labeled as a victim of bad luck, and so that is how you will stay.
