Does The Coli Believe That Poor People Should Not Be Happy? (Bu bu but...You can't afford that)

[El Vato]

Noticing that some of yall low key don't like the Idea that people making less money than you are legit happier than you.

Black people's happiness, dreams, and desires should be limited to how much money you make?

For example, those Brehs in the Congo dressing up in expensive clothes, should they not do that because they poor.

Should poor people's quality of life be based on income alone, because if it was, wouldn't that seem like that class shyte in India.
If people want to buy goofy shyte with their money, why does it bother ya'll?

I'm mexican but i read the hate on me because of my race. I know it goes both ways. Just don't mix me up with the stereotypical hater. Brown and Black together we win.

What is "happiness" to you though? shyt is subjective and could apply to different people in different ways.

That's why I can't understand why people watching other people's purchases and money like that.

Cant stand listening to middle-class/ lower-middle class black people bytching and moaning about how other people spend they money--Especially people with lower income. It's like whenever your money jump a level, you gotta be shyting on how the people below your income spend they money...But you hardly ever watch the people above you spending recklessly and complain.

Like rich people deserve happiness, but poor people dont

From what I see, it seems like people bytch about the practicality of it more than some desire for them to be not happy.

The Congo example, I don't think anybody mad cause they don't want breh to stunt I just think that they look at it as not practical, and voice their opinion on it.

Are you happy, OP?

Last week I was Happy

This week I ain't got enough money to qualify for happiness

Your thinking is flawed. You can't buy happiness, at least in the long term, with material things. How happy can some name brand shyt make you when you are still stressing about paying bills? Stop thinking so short term.

Financial security gives you one less thing to stress about, but at the end of the day happiness comes from things that matter- your self confidence, your relationships, your accomplishments, your health, your sense of self worth. You can't buy any of that, which a lot of people- poor AND rich- don't understand.

People start pocket watching when those poor individuals receive government aid that they feel they paid for via tax dollars.

so you jumped from "money they earned" to "government aid"

you gotta be a cracker

 

[HopeKillCure]

gotta understand... you have these anti-social, psuedo-intellectuals on here who think they're malcolm x by chastising, demeaning and insulting black people collectively for any WS or FB video that shows up here, as if they're crusading for black progress by racking up posts on a message board

but when it comes to what their standing is in life accomplishment-wise, or what pragmatic, tangible solutions they've done for black people, nikkas are quiet... very quiet

Can't tolerate any post that talks about black people as collectively the "worst" at anything, that type of post reeks of c00n energy.

I feel you, but poor people pay taxes too -- usually at a higher tax rate. Yeah, you got a bunch of people milking the system, but nobody steals tax money on the level that the super rich in this country do. The Donald Trumps of America rape the tax payer for much, much more than some poor b*stard on welfare.

 

[EndDomination]

Thread concept is garbage.
I have my doubts that they're "happy" by any stretch of the imagination, but if you want to push that narrative, you're also giving the "colonialism and abject poverty aren't all that bad" narrative more credence as well.
Someone with a heroin addiction and a days worth of heroin would probably be "happy" but the relativity of "happiness" is in question then.

Poor people don't really pay taxes. At least that's what I've noticed.

We usually get a refund and on top of that many people get credits for having kids going to school or whatever else

Its not just the coli, most people feel like this.

Its really sad, but its even worst when black people have this "I made it so why can't you" attitude.


Its even more sad when a poorer person is actually happy, it burns people who dedicate there life to money, status, women or "success" up on the inside. "I'm paying for his happiness with obama care with my hard earn money"


disgusting

Breh You can literally see some people's souls burning when someone with less resources than them are legit happier.

It goes against Western Capitalism that a person could be happy without controlling everything.

That hate is why white supremacy exists in America. Cacs stay on that, " why are all these nikkas so happy, dont they know how bad their life is"

 

[HopeKillCure]

i think theres a bigger problem when you're dirt poor and some name brand shyt that cost 8 cents to make is what gives you "happiness" and is perceived as "quality of life"

and if you have kids i dont give a shyt about pocket watching, your kids shouldnt be eating pb and j for dinner while you or them run around in some fukkin jordans

Yeah, you cant be demonic.

Evil is evil and we should always call and criticize that. I got no problem with a single person spending their money on goofy stuff though. I dont feel it's my place to lecture them on how to waste their money. I think we agree on that breh

 

[Mirin4rmfar]

I don't look down on poor people at all. I spend some time in poor neighborhoods when I was young too cause that's what my parents could afford since they had to start all over here in the U.S. You got brehs spending 200 plus dollars to outflex people from the same neighborhood etc. It is DUMB!!!
Anyways, I don't spend money on things that are necessity.
