This meme is classism and always has been. Hating the poor for being too depressed to work for pennies in hellish conditions while in agony due to various debilitating age problems is hateful shit. It is just used as a socially acceptable method for people to do hatred for the poor while simultaneously spreading the virtue of working for fuck all.
bro it's a joke about a children's book what are you on about 💀
I don't find hateful and mean spirited "jokes" very funny.
And can you people stop misgendering me?
Not sure who "you people" are, but your previous post didn't contain any clues about your gender. About all I can tell is that you're probably not a dog.
