Sure, if you're privileged enough to have a remote job and you're comfortable with getting a cheaper lifestyle through what essentially amounts to neocolonialism. But what about everyone else?

I know people from every country I've been to who are full-time travelers, including those you apparently consider "underprivileged", an epithet they would be offended by.

If an identical car costs $2,000 at one dealership and $20,000 at another, I'll buy the $2,000 one. You pay whatever you want.

Check your assumptions.

[-] MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

I'm underprivileged, and I'm not offended by the truth. You need to check your assumptions.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The sincerest form of flattery.

[-] MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, so you're just a troll? I looked at you "community" And it's just you and you deleting things you don't agree with. That's not a community. Maybe you were trying to start a blog and got lost?

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It sounds like you're mistaking communities; community engagement with travel is very encouraging so far.

Anybody who would be offended by being referred to as underprivileged needs to be slapped in the face. It’s like being offended because somebody said you were running late. You either are running late or you aren’t, getting offended because somebody doesn’t understand your situation is just dumb.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You want to slap underprivileged people you're insulting for understanding the world differently than you.

Executing your self-righteous violence without repercussion from your position of...what's the word...

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

I literally just said it’s not an insult. Don’t reply if you’re not going to read my comment.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Slapping those you've insulted will not convince them you were right.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Stop letting other people‘s opinions live rent free in your head. That was my point. If you get insulted because of somebody else’s opinion that’s your problem not their problem.

Worse though, saying that underprivileged is an insult is an insult to everybody who is underprivileged.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

You're advocating abuse and blaming your victims for being insulted by your insults.

They're different than you; their differences don't warrant your abuse.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

No, I’m talking about the same people you’re talking about. I don’t have any victims. You are the one who has friends who would be “offended by that epithet”. And since you aren’t taking this conversation seriously I will bid you good day.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

We are talking about the same people.

I support their lifestyle and worldview; you are insulting and threatening them with violence.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

I just said we were talking about the same people. You seriously aren’t even reading my comments or even trying to talk about the same thing that I’m talking about. Goodbye.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm reading your comments and responding directly to your stated viewpoints.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

You aren’t even trying to respond, nor are you reading that I said this conversation is over. For real go away, unless you are willing to discuss how insulting it is to underprivileged people to be insulted by the word underprivileged.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm reading your comments and directly responding to your stated viewpoints using your language.

Your own language and viewpoints upsetting you may be worth examination.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

You haven’t even used the words that I’ve used. Seriously go away or I’m going to block you.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

I am directly responding to your own stated viewpoints using your own language.

Your own language upsets you. Worth examination.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

Are you a bot or a troll? Either way stop responding to me.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm a traveler.

You might want to stop reaching out to folks you don't want a response from.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

Why are you still asking me questions and talking to me?

Where do you think a Lemmy user you are interacting with on Lemmy will go?

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

You understand that that’s a two-way street right? You don’t get to keep responding and then ask why other people are still responding.

But here’s the bottom line; your original comment currently has more down votes than up votes, you can either admit that saying that underprivileged is an insult is an insult to the underprivileged or you can keep being a dumbass but those are your only two options.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

You're messaging me specifically and asking me questions. I'm answering your messages.

If you don't want answers, see what happens when you stop messaging me.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

It’s so interesting to me how you keep choosing the dumbass option.

Now you’re just reaching, this is a public forum nobody is messaging anybody. You decided to act like a dumbass in a public forum and now you can’t handle being called out for it.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yes, you are repeatedly messaging me and asking questions on a public forum known as Lemmy.

I am answering your messages.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

These aren’t messages, they’re posts. You still aren’t responding to what I said. So you’re not answering anything.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You reach out to someone, they answer you.

Cause. Effect.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Where? I don’t see a response.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago
[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

If it’s alright then stop posting. But now you’re also just changing your comments after I respond to them so you’re not even trying to post here in good faith what is even the point of continuing to post then?

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

You keep asking questions, i like answering questions.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

Then answer them. I just reread this whole thread you have not once actually addressed my point. Address it or stop responding.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

Stop calling for a response if you don't want a response.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

I do want a response. You are not responding you are being intentionally obtuse.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You don't like the responses you receive, but you insist on reaching out.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

I don’t like it when people waste other people’s time intentionally because they’re butthurt over their comment not being received the way they wanted it to. If you would like to actually respond then by all means do so but please stop calling your obtuse bullshit a response.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

If you do not like these responses, you can stop asking for them.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

I never asked for you to be obtuse.

[-] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 1 points 2 weeks ago

You go find whoever accused you of that and let them know!
