It’s extremely privileged and classist to tell people to follow their passion, do what you love etc. when most people can’t do that.
It’s always people who are super out of touch that say things like this. Not realizing that living paycheck to paycheck is the norm in our society. Lots of people have student loans, medical debt, child support etc that can completely cripple you financially. And there’s only a small number of jobs which actually pay a living wage and give you healthcare.
And people will tell you if you don’t like your field to just do something else, as if there were any other options in the first place? Why do you think people do back breaking labor? It’s not because they enjoy it, it’s because it’s the only option for them, to feed their family, they probably can’t afford to go to college because they don’t have the privilege you have, yet you look down on them.
And people who are in a job that they hate and are not suited for are told it’s their own fault, not the fault of the economic pressures which drove them to apply for this job. Or else they are told that they have “depression” and need a therapist when it’s actually normal to feel this way when you live in a profoundly sick society.
