That this aired on US broadcast TV is wild to me. Will things actually get better in our lifetimes? It's nice to dreamhttps://twitter.com/CBSThisMorning/status/1223224310413905921 …

Me, having started my own company, grown a business, having a good education, gone to university, been given opportunities. Still on the bottom plate.pic.twitter.com/dWVndrNTeS
big oof. I grew up in a single parent working class family on benefits in the UK but thanks to opportunities, privilege, luck + occaaasionally a bit of hard work I live comfortably for my situation and age. Everyone should have the opportunity to live comfortably + happy

yeah no worries, I wasn't offended (didn't even consider that aspect), just... venting about capitalism lol, whilst feeling guilty about my relative success compared to people I care about + my upbringing
