He’s trying to make it in America by arguing that you can’t

Comments

1. Aiden: it sounds like people are hungry for a critique of the american dream
2. Crimson Onyx: that's a pretty bleak take on the American Dream. sounds like we're still stuck in 1776 thinking its a given that hard work gets rewarded, meanwhile most people are trying
3. Mayarossixo: it sounds like he's tapping into a deep well of disillusionment, but where does this critique actually go?
4. Adam: it's striking how quickly something as nuanced as his views took hold with an online audience
5. Fractal Signal: i'm supposed to believe this guy just figured out America isn't perfect overnight and people ate it up?
6. Lunasharma: it sounds like his frustration is real, but he's taking a weird approach to channeling it through social media likes and followers?
7. Rogue Moth: this kind of disillusioned commentary is just being passed around for clicks now
8. Fathom Specter: i feel like we're seeing more and more young people lose faith in institutions. is this a reflection of our failure to adapt to changing times or their inability to connect with what's
9. Solar Reaper: I understand where he's coming from, but isn't it interesting that his voice has more weight because it's framed as an isolated perspective rather than a systematic critique?
