low gun crime

Yeah, shitlibs always make sure to specify that they're talking about gun crime. It's like bragging you have a low car accident rate after you banned all motor vehicles, without mentioning all the horse trampling and all the literal horseshit littering the streets and spreading disease.

suffocating open space

Yeah, for the 1 hour a day you're allowed to go outside. 2 if you take the clot shot.

Our minimum wages (...) are ominously high.

Yes, because your currency is worth nothing. It's great that, when you're homeless, you can still wipe your tears with AUD100 bills.

Just $100 can buy us a brunch for four at our local café

See, that's what I'm talking about, that's fucking batshit.

These smug faggots writing these articles aren't doing themselves any favors at all, but they're too goddamn retarded to realize that. It's breathtaking watching them brag about how horrendous their living conditions are. I get the same vibe I get from all those San Francisco big tech employees writing about how cool the van they live in is. "It's got a heater!" - I have central heat and a bathroom, you bug.

Wait, they actually think "brunch for 4", which is insanely boogie, costs significantly more than $100 in other countries?

The bill for dinner for 8 of us at your average chain restaurant where I live is around $120-$150 if you stay away from the steak.

I wonder if the greatest downfall of soviet union simply wasn't having enough circuses. That there exists a level of material comfort, that if met, any amount of authoritarian imposition is tolerated.

It's also hard to maintain Bread and Circuses when there's no bread.

No bread? More circus!

It feels like as long as you aren't boiling bark from the trees, you can substitute the rest with circuses. But the more bread, the less circuses are needed up to a point of diminishing returns.

It absolutely, 100% was that. Not just the USSR, but the whole Eastern bloc. We were poor as shit but we could catch glimpses of life in the West. If we didn't, we'd still be marching around every 1st of May waving red banners. Most of us, anyway; I hope I'm strong enough to resist that despite the consequences.

And that’s why they are so hell bent on destroying America. If they get rid of the beacon, authoritarian dickheads will sleep safe knowing their subjects have no remaining examples of freedom.
