Anon is jealous

Yeah life is a joke and 99% of us are the punchline.

She didn't become a millionaire afaik.

She has a podcast that's slightly popular and was already well off.

Anon might stop feeling so jealous if they perhaps stopped making up random facts, or believing lies on the internet?

Not a millionaire overnight, but she did get a huge bump in wealth. She was getting tens of thousands for some appearances fees.
- Good for her.
For those who don’t know the podcast is called Talk Tuah.
- That's quite clever

that's not jealousy, it's an observation

its calling bullshit on this idiocy called the world
it can be both. who wouldn't want, at least for a while, inurement from financial consequences. And those that have it also still want to retain it. Mimetic desire or not, it is still desired by those who have or have not.

The only reason to frame not wanting to suffer as bad is if you want to inflict that suffering

Anon develops class consciousness?

Nah it's a bait post
- Fake and gay you say?
Not really, I’m sure they think this is the fault of women or woke liberals
- I mean, they specifically say the market, but you're probably right

Anon discovers that life often isn't all that fair...

Being smart and hardworking can bolster your odds, but your lot in life really boils down to how lucky you are, and how well equipped you are to capitalise on that luck.

Unfortunately the right combination of extreme luckiness and ability to capitalise on it doesn't come up all that often, so most people simply won't ever get that lucky break.

life isn't fair, but this isn't life. it's the system put in place by people. chalking it up to life not being fair is complicity.

life isn't fair that someone may be born with a lifelong disease, or they may get one later. can't do anything about that. economic fairness is something we can change.

BTW I never understood why she became popular, it wasn't that interesting or funny... but I have nothing against her capitalizing on an opportunity. she was suddenly put in the spotlight but she hasn't grifted her way there. doesn't hurt anyone. good for her. my comment isn't about her but meritocracy in general.
- The economic system is as big apart of my life as the chronic medical issues I was born with. Don't know how your life functions without regards to the economy. It has been easier to get medical intervention on my medical issues, than to get society to make the economy fair. Human behavior is part of life, these abstract systems we create are a direct result of that.
of course extreme luck can be replaced by inherited wealth and daddies' connections and suddenly we are looking at a super star who would under average room temperature conditions would only make it to local news
- Being born into riches is extreme luck.
  
  Or did most of us choose to live on hard difficulty?
  
  (well most of us are probably on medium difficulty, do to the fact that we can post here)

I don't know who she is. What am I doing right?

She talked about a blow job in a funny way and it became a meme, then she jumped to capitalize on the popularity
- IIRC she got fired from school (?) when it became viral.

Well apparently 51% of you don't agree that anything is wrong...

Damn, a person made a bunch of money by saying something amusing on camera? That's crazy bro. Probably the first time that's ever happened.

Damn, [an attractive] person made a bunch of money by saying something amusing on camera? That’s crazy bro. Probably the first time that’s ever happened.
- Nah, plenty of ugly actors and comedians

Money only has value if you believe it has value.

Money is fake, scarcity is manufactured, capitalism is a scam

Unfortunately a lot of people have bought into the scam...
- Wait, wasn't the whole point of climate change that we use more resources than the ecosystem can replenish?
Money only has value ~~if you believe~~ because the ones with power over everyone else say it has value.

Fixed it for you. Much as we want to, we can't will away the oppression without first overthrowing the oppressors.
Yep.

Entertainers get the big bucks because millions and billions of normal people spend a lot of time and money being entertained by them.

And we are always looking for the cool and funny next thing. And hawk tua girl legitimately entertained millions of us for 30 seconds.
It's why taxes were invented. Nothing gives currency value as being beaten by not giving it back to the king's men.
$20 can by many peanuts!
Nah that's bitcoin

Envious* and me fucking too.

Pretty based take for a reactionary shithole

Its called the entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe don't slave your life away and try to do something about it.

It's called being exceedingly lucky, she tells you that so don't spread bootstrap bullshit.
- Of course luck plays a factor and you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Dont put words of bootstrap BS in my mouth when i never said it. I said entrepreneurial spirit. As in she took her lucky hand and did something with it.

This isn't jealousy, it's "the system is broken, here's an example of what I mean"

I mean I'm jealous too
