You guys need to be a little more discerning about what you read/upvote on here

Earlier today a post was made by a user who also posted the same wall of text on lost generation, late stage capitalism, etc. While first few lines seem sympathetic there's a sudden curveball thrown in that most people seemed to gloss over.
