a lunatic? completely. but this is almost a valuable message to break through to that echo chamber.

[-] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 196 points 1 month ago

Flying economy just for fun?

It is just her humble bragging about being rich by cosplaying as a regular person.

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 156 points 1 month ago

yeah, it's ridiculous - but the core messaging is "money insulates you from reality" and that's something these people need to hear.

She "launched her first six-figure business in middle school" aka. has rich parents and never knew anything she is talking about here

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 60 points 1 month ago

Every "independently" wealthy person under 35 on the Internet.

Step 1, have lavishly rich parents

Step 2, use parents money and business networks to make money

Step 3, brag about being humble while also flaunting your wealth.

“I made this all myself. If I can do it, anybody could do it”

If I wanted to see someone bragging about their accomplishments, I'd just look at this:

I'd even posit that this otter has contributed more to society than anybody on Linkedin.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

the otter pup has contributed more to the universe by simply existing

[-] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I don't think it's restricted to under 35 and on the internet. I know a 40 something year old that says shit like "my wife and I are so independent and good with our money, we don't get any handouts. The only gift we get is that her parents pay off our credit cards every Christmas" unironically.

Rich people are so fucking out of touch.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

Lol, fair enough. It's basically impossible nowadays to be comfortable without a little help, even if it's just systemic in nature.

I'm in my mid-late 30s and doing really well compared to most of the people in my age bracket mostly out of dumb luck and because my dad was in the military.

During the last housing market scare I was able to buy a run down abandoned house for 35k after qualifying for a loan through USAA that I really shouldn't have ever been approved for. Just stupid little things like that can really make a huge difference in the long run.

No they need to feel it by taking away their wealth

[-] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 9 points 1 month ago

How are you going to do that? Ask politely?

[-] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I hear whispers of cannibalism from these types occasionally.

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I know a good pork bolognaise recipe that feeds like 50.

[-] xiwi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

By preference using state mechanisms or idk some kind of people's tribunal. Future bleak as fuck so at a certain point enough people will be okay with either

[-] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

There is a high enough quantity of millionaire/billionaire simps who can prevent this from proceeding by protecting those pieces of trash that this will likely never happen in your lifetime.

[-] xiwi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

Ok well lets just drown in shit then, never mind any historical precedences at all (even only a few years back up until today).

You are pretty much one of those simps right now, you are defending the statues quo.

[-] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

No, I'm trying to tell you that waving signs and pointing fingers does jack-shit. Either you bring them violence or complain about it impotently on the internet. Guess which you and I are guilty of?

[-] xiwi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

First of all that's not what you said at all, second you don't know me or what i do in my life lmao.

Also I hope that pfp is ironic

[-] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah I'm terrible with communication, so what leaves my brain is often nonsense or incorrect intent due to that.

Please elaborate what you mean by pfp

[-] ThorrJo@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

Luigi style 👍

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

i will be asking politely, however i cannot speak for what my friends with clubs might or might not do.

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 month ago

You'll never live like Common People

It is just her humble bragging about being rich by cosplaying as a regular person.

Pretending to be rich yet grounded while actually being neither.

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago

No leg room and screaming children just for giggles 🤭 hehehe

[-] Booboofinget@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That's pretty much what I was thinking. Wish we poor plebs could vosplay as rich without maxing out ourncredit cards for life.

[-] frezik 2 points 1 month ago

Not really. It's more an attempt to prove that rich people and poor people are vibing together so the poors don't revolt.
