To address the posts about what “left” is being described - Freya India is specifically addressing young women who fall into a social progressive category that don’t yet understand the businesses they “like” are not on their side and are taking advantage of them. The types who may say they want “socialism” but as far as they know socialism means things like being against Trump or just nice social sentiments. Not understanding that they really like capitalism and the things it affords them. The kind who have no idea of policy but will watch 30 political tiktok videos and thing they know something now.
I don’t know that name, certainly not their content, but this sure sounds like the perennial “avocado toast” non-argument to somehow associate young people being (predictably) broke and foolish with, ya know, caring equally for human beings and wanting our society to make that a primary goal.
It sounds like hateful trash, is what I mean. What “left” is this person describing, I wonder?
The interview was not a financial discussion and was not about the debt itself but lack self reflection that the things they like most contradict the values they grandstand. That they mouth one set of values but live out another set of values that are less likely the ones they will give up, push come to shove.
Yeah that doesn’t sound like the left lmao. The American left, whom the whole news-enjoying slice of the population believes to be the left? But which other countries consider right-of-center? Yeah, must be that “left”.
Listening to a lady named Freya India who is talking about this exact same kind of cognitive dissonance.
The left hammers the points of anti-capitalism but go into debt for regular Disney vacations or high end brands, Taylor Swift Tickets, and more.

I don’t think most people on “the left” are doing those things in the numbers you think they are.
