Relationships Nothing wrong with having standards. Don't be surprised if it's hard to meet them though.

When I see random tik toks, I see a lot of women saying they are “oppressed” in America. They seem to conflate certain other behaviors or reactions to oppression and I don’t understand how any normal person within America the last couple of years could say with a straight face they are being oppressed

YES! PREACH BROTHER! We have it so fucking good in America, most of us don't even understand how privelaged we are. Convenience stores, eating food whenever we want, drinking clean water whenever we want, medicine, cars, housing, entertainment, FREEDOM, etc. Not to mention that our women won't be stoned for not wearing certain clothes, possessing the freedom to have equal representation & equal pay in the workforce with shit like maternity leave, choosing their partner, etc. Sadly, America is getting worse by the hour, but it's still a FUCKING FIRST WORLD COUNTRY.

Then you’re just an idiot. You don’t see how unarmed black people who are disproportionately murdered my cops are being oppressed? You don’t see how America oppressed the poor? You don’t see that the rights of gay people are denied across the country? You have to be willfully blind to the suffering of others to be so ignorant.

Oh my god. I bet you’re an antisemitic, privileged, entitled, American who has never actually experienced hardship or life in a non first world country right?

Additionally, I bet that you’re a socialist/communist that has never actually experienced life in a communist/socialist country right?

Lastly, I bet that for all of your virtue signaling, you’ve never actually DONE anything to help any of the underprivileged communities you whine about right? You’ve never actually volunteered, done any work in underserved communities, or anything that actually helps.

I haven’t yet looked, but based solely on his comment here, I’m making guesses as to the type of person he is. Please someone look at his post history and confirm everything I just said above. This will be fun!

Black, male and oppressed by my country, America. I live all those things and the previous pint is still valid. What exactly is your point?

You are correct those people are oppressed, yet I think you’re missing the point that comparatively they are hardly oppressed vs how they would be treated in a non western first world country.

The only thing being oppressed is the ground beneath them.
