#to come from a first world country i absolutely understand the situation is far graver for most ppl.

ppl on here be complaining about poverty thru their iphones 4000 and mac laptops while sipping matcha iced coffee and using their earpods or whatever the fuck and wonder why the rest of us living in the third world using stolen or free wifi with our shitty androids and no water to shower and eating once a day cant take them seriously. girl ya'll are privileged too in your so called poverty and yall dont see that shit cos you love bein victims lmao

ok i mean i don't understand why you're coming at me specifically with this aggression because i literally agree with you and have not stated otherwise. it's one of the things about capitalism that disgusts me the most, the cognitive dissonance, which i fully acknowledge i experience myself. you're right, most of don't realize how lucky we are and we get stuck on everything we don't have rather than realizing that a lot of people don't even have access to basic amenities. we've grown accustomed to having food, clean water, internet etc and i don't blame you for finding that ridiculous when you have been denied those things. so i would never compare first world poverty to third world poverty especially bc the latter is a direct result of the first world. and i don't deny my own privilege when it comes to being from the uk either. if i ever post about my financial struggles i am talking about them in an isolated way i.e not comparing them to people who obviously have it way worse. i am literally just venting my issues like. in no way am i saying they deserve to be prioritized over mass poverty and destitution.
