Moridin claims to be a commie, but instead of living a communist lifestyle, he instead brags about how rich he has become through capitalism and taunts the poor and working class with his bank account.

what is the communist lifestyle?

I'm not bragging either I am openly saying it is stupid as poo poo that people working hard all their life make a pittance while some other lazy shithead does nothing whatsoever except moving some paper or digital numbers around and poof he's "earned" more than most people make in a year.

What's an internet communist?

A young person who just learned about communism but lives a comfortable life in their parents house in a nice American suburb and is wicked caremad about it. What a Internet communist is not is someone who lived under an actual communist regime.

Don’t you choose how much money you make? Like, you can work fast food and be more happy than a billionaire who makes money off of killing
I mean, kinda. The current problem in the US is worker financial protection laws, the education system that became a for-profit edutainment system, and the healthcare system are garbage. If those were ever fixed most people would have alright lives, because trading 30-40 hours of your time per week for a salary is actually enjoyable and rewarding if you aren't trying to figure out how to afford food, shelter, and doctors visits while paying off insane debt you were coerced into as a child.

There are loads of other problems, but uh if that one gets fixed by raising the bottom a bit then life is alright for the majority at least.

Terrible money is real vague. There are three tiers of terrible money:
  • You're not even making enough to get your own place, your own transportation, your own healthcare, your own utilities, etc
  • You're making enough to do that and maybe save if you're savvy
  • You're making more than that and can save while having some fun bucks
You can get stuck into any tier at nearly any salary depending on how dumb you are about spending! Look at professional athletes or lottery winners for fine examples.

You transcend terrible money when you have assets that don't notably depreciate in value and require no real input from you while generating notable revenue.
I meant terrible money as in they can't accrue savings because the rental market in Boston is a nightmare and they have a mountain of student loan debt. Not immediate poverty.

Well, the social worker types are probably on deferments for their student loans for low income and the vain hope that they'll get loan forgiveness. Their necks are probably just above poverty. Technically you could call that underemployed.

Lower middle class.

Except for the five dudes that work at a sandwich bar for minimum wage.
