People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)

It's classic circular reasoning.
"He's so rich because he's hard working and smart."
"How do you know he's so hard working?"
"Because lazy and dumb people don't get rich, duh."
To many, rich parents, dumb luck, lack or morals and a huge pile of debt don't play a role.
That's when you point out the existence of inheritance and generational wealth
Correct . Lazy and dumb people don't get rich. They just ARE rich.
