I tend to get a bit more mad at the companies that design everything we buy and consume to be more appealing, addicting, convenient, and harder to say no to. Yes we all should have more impulse control, but everything companies do is to manipulate us to buy and consume more and to circumvent our impulses.
I'm a hypocrite, but worse because Capy probably isn't making millions off us, and better because Reddit has been so shit at monetizing (less money for the giga jannies the better), but there's irony that half the thread is about this on social media designed for bite-sized thinking and scrolling. Redditors feel superior for the ability to longpost, but it's still lazy trash brain.

Lmfao yeah they do that. But that's literally what self control and discipline are. You don't need to have the latest apple gadget, the latest McSlop offering, or go to Disney every couple of months. You're not missing out on shit. Spoiled butt children.

I'm torn on this though, especially when it comes to children. Seems like corps have too much of an advantage these days with labs and lasers and computer chips and chemicals, and I can sneer at whatever demographic's self control, but I'm still going to suffer the consequences of a significantly higher number of people being broke, unhealthy, and r-slurred.
Maybe my old genes are activating, but vidya games seem more and more insidious in particular.

Yeah I'd agree with your point on kids. The marketing is still the same as when I was a kid, but you didn't have screens and apps and the like. Back then If you wanted Sonic the hedgehog or Lucky Charms, you had to get mom to take you to the store and buy it. Now videogames are little casinos and you can tell Alexa to order you a bag of lucky charms marshmallows without that gatekeeping. There's certainly a role with parents taking responsibility, but I can't really speak to that. I don't have kids and I can't really judge parenting in this day and age. But if you're a 30 year old manchild who needs his loot boxes and onlyfans or a 30 year old womanchild going to Disney because fomo, I have zero sympathy. That's on you.

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)
Sitewide rules apply
other rules
  1. Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
  2. Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)
  3. 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.
