I'm just gonna leave this here.

He's complaining about capitalism but has turned himself into a walking billboard for multinational corporations Adidas and Carhart. Someone should explain the importance of culture and the corrosive effects of welfare to this kid before grievance culture eats his brain.

I wonder why those stores are locked and those other fancier stores choose not to operate there? You'd think they'd love the diverse enrichment.

who wants to do business in an area where you risk being robbed, your customers risk being robbed, and the insurance companies don't want to insure you because of the robbery and violence risks. Little dude needs to look in the mirror for the reason.

I mean he’s got a point.

Oof

That's intriguing, Defiant L's! Can't wait to see what you're hinting at.

The personal is the political.

This dude hasn't read the chapter on supply/demand or loss prevention yet 😳

Get a job. A haircut would be the first step towards success. If you are going to rage against the machine, dump the corporate logo that shows you are a cog. Save yourself. The world doesn't care.

supply + demand, or even cause + effect, are very basic principles he has not yet grasped

I don’t disagree with him in the least. The CIA of the 60s and 70s introduced drugs and abortion clinics to minority neighborhoods and it was the downfall.

nigga please
