These are just a few, some minuscule some more important, of the things that make living in the western world os amazing. That list could easily go on for miles. And honestly I live a pretty average if not below average lifestyle for an American. I don;t suspect life is so drastically different for people in western Europe, Canada, or even - dare I say it - Australia.
I'm just saying that even with all the crap going on in the world, how is this not the best time to be alive? I don't mean to say there isn't room for improvement, but damn, I wouldn't want to trade my place in history with anyone else.

>inb4: white privilege doesn't exist you faggot >inb4: hurr durr but this country has this problem and these oppressors
>How is this not the best time ever (for the Western World) Life satisfaction is down, our government doesn't represent us, white birthrates going down, being forced to pay for shit that doesn't benefit anyone, >>inb4: white privilege doesn't exist you faggot Nobody said dick about this but you.

Studies indicate that humans are happiest when they attempt to do things that are difficult.
Having a high standard of living, strangely enough, is more likely to leave you unfulfilled and empty inside.
I would gladly trade my long life and material safety to live during the American Revolution, to fight in the campaign to end slavery, to land at Normandy, or settle the frontier.

1. non whites 2. shit economy 3. dead culture
there what do I win?

>Life satisfaction is down, our government doesn't represent us, white birthrates going down, being forced to pay for shit that doesn't benefit anyone, Life satisfaction really falls back on the individual wouldn't you say? we elected our government to that position and things are still fine. Birthrates being down has more to do with abortion and young hipsters not marrying - again an exercise of personal liberty. >>inb4: white privilege doesn't exist you faggot what the hell do you think inb4 is for asshole?

Chinese foreign housing speculation.
Why on earth are we allowing this?
Mason Perez
It's the only way boomers can make money anymore now that they outsourced every job to China.
John Reed
not going to argue we have problems, but what is your opinion exactly? That this is, in fact, NOT the best time to be alive, or that you think there are better places within the world today? If so, where?
Charles Gutierrez
this is basically the 60's redux except shittier
Christopher Rogers
boomers are in retirement
Kevin Williams
Strictly speaking, yes.
That said I can't wait for it to all come crashing down on you.

>that's right goy being poor actually makes your happy!
Sebastian Ortiz
I'll still be better off than the rest of the world.
Lincoln Williams
It is good for those that grab the bull by it's horns. Unfortunately our culture has been crippled by autism, socialism, and multiculturalism.
Jack Scott
which is why they make money of high real estate prices
like I said
1. dead culture/society 2. shit economy 3. full of non whites
how is that hard to understand?
Maybe if you left the white suburbs you would understand.
David Phillips
Right, there's definitely a fight to keep things from getting worse, and then help them to get better. I get why people criticize the west and the country because there are many glaring issues, but hell at the end of the day where else would you want to be?
Maybe I'm just optimistic idk
Xavier Wilson
yeah no shit
the rest of the world is full of non whites
Lucas Collins
How is their making money off high real estate prices a bad thing?
I actually live in the city.
Jack Morgan
THE WHITE RACE IS DYING.
ISLAM IS SPREADING.
Zachary Baker
hmm let's see so wages are flat
(see )
yet real estate prices are going up meaning either 1. you have to spend all your paycheck on rent or 2. you have to go into debt to afford rent
yeah I don't see how that could "possibly" be a problem for working class millennials. Nope that seems fine.
Ryder Morgan
you could always manage your life better too. I don't know too much about Canadian real estate, but I imagine you're building up something of a straw man. Are all their houses listed that terribly? if so, id like to point out that canada is quickly receding from the west as they become more and more socialist.
Jacob Perry
We've been made weak by comfort. Summer children, water-fat.
Hudson Collins
Don't bother OP, these idiots still think Western society is declining when there is clearly no such thing.
If you were to travel back in time to 100 years ago, kidnap a group of people and take them to today, they wouldn't want to go back.
"You mean I get all this technology, medicine that can cure and prevent most serious ailments, amazing entertainment, and all I have to do is put up with idiots on TV saying I'm equal to niggers?"
Christopher Nelson
>you could always manage your life better too
sure you can
people are now forced to live in co ops in cities to afford rent
you know like they did in the Great Depression or in Maoist China. Hows that for a "high standard of living"?
Alright well if its so shitty here where do you want to go?
Jeremiah Parker
I want to marry and live a long uneventful life. Can't have that anymore thank to no-fault divorce. Can't even make sure the kid is mine in France, it's illegal.

>meeting women is as easy as talking to them and asking them to dinner or even just finding them online via dating sites and tinder
lol no it isn't famalam
Charles Adams
Nowhere. We want to stay here, and we want the West not to be a shithole. It used to be better than this.
Jeremiah Gutierrez
Just don't bother OP is part of the problem, redpill and move on. Don't acknowledge his delusion.
