Does Anybody Ever Regret Being “Enlightened?”

Don't get me wrong, I don't regret educating myself and realizing just how much of a hellhole the USA is and I am more than willing to die as a rebel once the French American Revolution 2.0 starts. There are however, times in which I wished that I could go back to my days of being blissfully ignorant; when I actually had hope, and something to look forward to. Being in the know has definitely not done my mental health any favors

Its May and I still haven’t gotten my yearly raise or quarterly bonus.

Last year our company was acquired by a larger coorporation. Then my team's intern left for better oppurtunities. Followed by our engineer, and finally my boss. Now its just me, doing the workload of our entire team. Not a single position has been backfilled. Im getting pressured to work harder since I've been falling behind. Its now May and nobody in our entire division has gotten our yearly raise or our quarterly bonuses. Looks like ill be looking for a new job. (Its long overdue)

Don’t waste your life.

I’m 47, I grew up with a single mum who was still working her own shit out at 17 when she had two kids. She was a good mum and provided as best as she could. She eventually through endless hard work reached a stage of comfort and retired at 65 with enough capital to be just comfortable in her public housing unit. She also has starting to experience physical problems that will in no doubt affect her ability to enjoy the rest of her later years. I’ve not got any offical trade except transport and logistics, since I transitioned just over 7 years ago (m2f) I have not been able to get work in an industry I have over 20 years experience in. I worked Uber for some time and put up with major shit to the point I just can’t do it anymore. I did own a home…

When you realize birth rates have significantly gone down in the last few years, and the hidden ruling class need plenty of new workers to replace the retiring and dying ones, it doesn’t surprise me that they are trying to ban abortion and roll back child labor laws.
