Bruh, did you not see the part where I said I was homeless? I’m unemployed due to AI, estranged from parents due to being trans, living on government benefits in shared accommodation, and My partner lives in the USA where Trump is president and wants to send trans people to concentration camps. You want to say I’m lucky and privileged and have a great life and no idea about the world’s unfairness?
But education? There’s free education on your phone. I know you have an internet device; you’re shitposting on Lemmy. And there are free computers you can use at the library in most of the English speaking world. Education isn’t like a house or a job or food or parents anymore. If you know how to read and you have an internet device, you can learn anything.
Are you trying to make it into a competition? Most people can list hardships like that, and sure, I do not doubt that you have a hard life. But as a matter of fact, you are able to read and write, to have the internet and to know how to use it, to have been educated enough to know how to learn things from the internet (and not fall into sects and conspiracy theories), to be in a country that supports you and doesn’t just kick you in the street, to be openly trans without being killed, to speak the language of your country (I assume), to be in a legal situation in your country, etc. Pretending like you have no privileges while you are writing posts online to say that it’s people’s fault if they have a shit life is not working.
Also, according to your logic, your situation is also your fault. If education is so easy to get and everything is in your control, why don’t you have an expertise in a subject that cannot be done by AI, and get a job?
Saying that people’s shitty situation comes from them being lazy or whatever is just allowing the world to stay a shit place by refusing to admit that things are unfair from the start. Education is not something obvious, for most people and in a lot of countries. And the fact that you’re trying to focus on either your situation or mine (I never said I was not privileged, and unlike you I’m not going to start listing all the weird shit I had and have to go through, so I don’t see why you felt the need to say that I have an internet device) while being unable to think about people who are in very different situations from yours is a bit alarming.
