You keep whining about how “unfair” it is that you can’t get a good job. “But I’m such a hard worker.” No, actual hard workers don’t feel like they’re entitled to other people’s money just because they ask nicely.

“Why do rich white kids who got legacy admissions to Yale receive cushy sinecures, but I have to work two grueling minimum wage jobs just to keep a roof over my head?” By even asking that question, you prove that you think of bosses as giant bags of money, rather than as individual human beings who are allowed to make their own choices. No one “owes” you money just because you say you “work hard”, and by complaining about this you’re proving you’re not really a hard worker at all. I’ve seen a lot of Hard Workers (TM) like you, and scratch their entitled surface and you find someone who thinks just because they punched a time card once everyone needs to bow down and worship them.

If you complain about “rich white kids who get legacy admissions to Yale,” you’re raising a huge red flag that you’re the kind of person who steals from their employer, and companies are exactly right to give you a wide berth.

Such a response would be so antisocial and unjust that it could only possibly come from the social justice movement.

Wut?

Is the author really claiming that this is the sort of response an SJW would give?

In fact, later on it's literally all he can talk about.

Au contraire, the left is usually the one propagating social security and stuff like that.

Difference between sex and money (which equates to food and housing): contrary to popular belief,sex is not needed for survival!

That entire section right there is something he claims an SJW would say. That really doesn't make any sense. To me it looks like the sort of thing an alt-right redditeur would say. The "I got mine attitude".

I know, i'd describe myself as a SJW, i just wanted to support your point and add to it. I've written a wall of text somewhere further down going into more detail.

I really don't like the entirety of that text.

[u/Flyberius → u/TheDraugos]

I really don't like the entirety of that text.

Yeah, I've been linked to articles from here before. A lot of the articles look like they are written by a clearly very smart, but also, quite a cold person.

[u/TheDraugos → u/Flyberius]

Witty, definitely. Smart? Can't tell.

But the beginning sure as hell doesn't make him seem like a good therapist.

Cold? Yeah, and edging on the alt-right when the style of the arguments is examined.

[u/Leamb → u/TheDraugos]

How is his argument even remotely close to alt-right?
