how was it different? legitimately asking because I want to understand where you're coming from when you say something like that, maybe I am actually naive but I'm open to learning something new.
The world was a different place, a smaller place... A company that fires all their workers goes broke in the 20's, in the modern day, there are enough hungry people who can be gaslit into "Pulling themselves up by their bootstraps"
At this point, don't try to change the world, just don't let it change you... as long as you can be less twisted than the world, you're doing okay for yourself.
