I feel lucky to be from an immigrant family. My family is Mexican, my parents just chose to come here "for a better life". I'm not trying to move to Bali, Europe, or anywhere else, I just want to go back to where my family came from, and where I am also a citizen, for a better life.
"real and somber dinner table conversions" hits so close to home for me.
I told my boyfriend part of why I want to leave is that I don't think I have it in me to fight. "and by 'stay and fight' I don't mean fundraise and pass petitions. I expect there to be actual guns" (this was prior to the events of the past weekend).
His response was "I think I maybe AM prepared to stay and fight. And I also expect there may be guns".
So. Flee? Join up in the civil war? Close our eyes and pretend it's not happening? Become a refugee after it's happened? Do it together, or is this going to be a lifestyle level difference of opinion? I feel like the options are looking increasingly bleak.

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)

Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)
I am looking for a mod who will help me grow this place and encourage the facebook community where the majoryity of our members reside
to migrate. Contact me if interested.
I really do love you all so very much, i'm even spending drama coin to get some banners and marseys. thanks for being a part of the community.

The best part of a civil war would be millions of refugees flooding into Canada and chudding it up to prepare them for their eventual liberation.

Crazy how no one jumps to teach or take up arms for citizenship, yet its unlivable here. Life threatening even.

That's a good point, why aren't Redditors joining the French Foreign Legion?

Turns out most countries don't let in millions of unskilled, unemployed immigrants every year.
