    “Why are you booing him, he’s right”

    You may just not deal with these same insufferable young folks that actually ARE priveleged and are upset they dont get everything handed to them. I’m not talking about the average Lemmy user with a masters degree struggling to put in 400 job resumes. Not the same people.

    And obviously its not all. Ive had interns that were awesome. They aren’t the majority. And probably never were.

      You are also missing the point

      Even if you guys are right, and im inclined to agree with you, you both sound like smug assholes

      You can say things without being an asshole, but

      you know also what makes someone a smug asshole? budgeting, eating right, exercising, and all the stuff we all know that are good for us

      is just being an asshole for no reason. Nobody said or implied any of those thing, they’re just tilting at windmills because they want to talk shit and don’t like being told they’re talking shit.

      They didn’t even initially mention privilege, just “young people,” so being told to tone down the hate is warranted.
