As an unemployed young man from an upper economic class some people tend to assume that whatever i’m standing for is only a propaganda to excuse my laziness. Due to the running joke “escaping the matrix” by becoming rich, men takes life as a lateral gameplay at this point were you’ve to only level up in the matter of numbers, regardless if you enjoy the game or not.
If i’m privileged enough to live with my parents and have a fair amount of money as a paycheck coming every month, if i’m doing activities to engage with people while also improving myself day by day with various things; why exactly do i need to have a job? if you’ve a stable life that would last you for years, why would you need to force yourself to be on survival mode? at this point it’s just a cycle of feeding the societal terms and conditions, serving capitalism as you meant to do. This capitalist ideology are rooted deep in the society that i bet you’d instantly shame me just for having no job. You can stigmatize me for as long as you want, life is stupid and i’m living it in my terms and conditions, yes my parents would die some day, yes i might waste money and have to get a job, we will play along once the time comes but for now i’m enjoying being gifted. I do have a heart problem so maybe i won’t last long and that’s my checkmate.
I guess i did come off purely as a lazy gen z now but i did have jobs early on, i participate in the society, i donate to charities and i exist outside my house. But as Eugene McCarthy said “The only thing that saves us from the bureaucracy is its inefficiency.”
