It is, and I’m well aware of just how hard it is to be in my kind of position. I’m leaving very soon for a job overseas.
It took 12 years of college. It took massive debts that I spent a decade earning to pay off. It took a further 15 years of competing in academia to become a desirable candidate for the job. I’m taking a serious pay cut and spending the saving from a decade of work to make the move.
Its a privilege, but having come from a family that valued education, but had little money to help me, I kinda feel like I’ve earned it. Decades of effort on my part went into this.
You can be pissed all you want, but I’ve paid my dues and I’m spending them on a better and safer future for my children away from the US Banana Republic of Dumbfuckistan.
It’s not bizarre to shame someone for bragging about the ability to just up and leave to a country halfway across the world.
Most Americans do not have that kind of privilege. It must be nice.

Lol.
That’s what everyone who voted for Trump basically said. America was founded on this principle. You give what you get
