Go look at people in Syria or Venezuela who can barely find food. You're just a bunch of annoying spoiled brats. You need to struggle to find food, clear water and electricity to learn what struggle means. You need to try to rush your grandma to the hospital and see her die in your car in your arms, because of army gates blocking the way, to know the value of the luxury you're living at.
You'll never realize the blessing you're enjoying until you lose it. Grow up and learn to be thankful you have a full belly and warm water.
People have it worse than they should all over the world. That kinda seems like the point of the post to me. Should op have posted a meme saying "fuck the whole world because I don't have it as bad?"
No, OP should not post that they're miserable or whatever because they had "4 crises". This is an improvement even compared to 200 years ago. Only baby boomers were so lucky not to have so much problems. Almost every other generation before had it worse + almost every other country in the world has it worse. OP's complaint shows that they don't appreciate the good life they have, despite the "crises" that happened, compared to the majority of humanity, whether in this time or in history.
I read this as 4 world crises, not 4 personal crisis for OP. i.e. Drinking in bed because the world is on fire. But sure, yay, smartphones.
Which part is the good life, just so I can be sure I'm enjoying it.
