Satire rule

My younger brother loves Tyler Durden quotes. One in particular “It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.”

I’m not sure why that one jumps out at him dude makes more money than me. I do want to say though that hes genuinely a good person in most ways, hes completely surrounded by frothing at the mouth rightwingers but maintains that he is a centrist. And he says stuff that implies left wing and anarchist beliefs but constantly defends rightwing figures when I shit talk them around him.

Hes just badly propagandized and would end up being socially isolated if he started actually identifying as left wing because all of his friends wont stop talking to him. And he refuses to move and make new friends. Its depressing.

“It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.”

This is a pretty common sentiment I believe. Me and Bobby Mcgee came out in 71 with the famous lyric “Freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose”
