I don't understand the people who told me I would get more conservative with age. The more powerful I become, the more angry I get at the people who abuse their power and the more aware I become of the ways in which systemic oppression functions.
20-year old me totally believed that tech was a meritocracy where people pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and that the 30-something guys I dated were attracted to me because I was so mature.
In other news, I am reading "Capital in the 21st Century" by Thomas Picketty and I am so angry at baby boomers right now.
@evacide I don’t read the book, but I can’t less agree. Some days ago I listened to a boomer that told how hard he worked and that the young people don’t want to work. That’s a neo liberal narrative that is used by old giant industries that don’t want to pay the market price. There aren’t enough people that can work on whatever the company needs. They want that you work very hard for a low price and they earn the simple profits, but that doesn’t work anymore.
