I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet niggas again est. 2016
Hello, welcome to 'I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet gangstas again'
This hole exists as a safe space for refugees from the Facebook(MetaTM groups of the same name. Of which there have been several iterations. We mostly exist to poke fun at the state of living in poverty. While it oftentimes is unavoidable, we do aspire to not be meanspirited. Over the years we have co-opted the term 'Peak Poor' to being someone who exudes poverty, regardless of their actual net worth. Trump and Elon both exhibit the peak poor ethos from time to time while still being the top 0.000001%. You can do something peak poor and still be a good person or a generally adjusted one. We all have a bit of poor in us.
We basically fill a niche similar to fatpeoplehate with a bit less actual malice.
PeakPoor is shotgunning mountain dews at 5 years old.
PeakPoor is not people dying of poverty. While technically the greatest heights of poverty is succumbing to it this is not funny, and is a failure
of capitalism. We do not make fun of poverty to be mean spirited such as that.
Read the room, if it's punching down too hard or really digging into someone whos a sympathetic character it doesn't belong here. (basically READ THE ROOM)

Neighbor if you can't make it in the US, you aren't gonna make it anywhere in Europe where housing crises and anti-immigration sentiment is at an all-time high. Jesus Christ.

OP is a poorcel, like 99% of redditors who fetishize Europe. It's just their way of coping as they believe they would be living off welfare in Europe. Basically the "US is great for the rich and middle class but Europe is the paradise of the mediocre poors" mentality.

They could get on welfare here if they wanted it. If Tyrone can dole grift they can too.

Even most poors don't know how many programs they have. So much so that we stupidly pay people to tell the poors where to go to get more money.

Welfare maxxing is unironically too much work for these people. I've seen the !leafs version b-word and moan so much about having to apply to different programs (plain old welfare, housing assistance, child care assistance, work transport assistance, food assistance ect). They want welfare to just pay them a lump sum in cash every month regardless of what they actually need

I'm not looking for it but I remember a study that was like bottom 10% have higher QoL in Europe than the US, 10-20th% are equal, and 20th% and up better in the US.

Kinda? You can get away with working a lot less in Europe but that's because you don't get to consume goods. You basically have enough to buy bread from Aldi's and live in a box.
