Roommate says "I'm really sick of living in the Soviet Union circa 1956"

Implied subtext being "which is what a blue state governor thinks is the ideal state of society — bread lines in front of Walmart"

Like privation and restriction of movement is the literal goal, even for when there is no pandemic

Judging from his twitter feed, I'm like 80% certain that guy's trolling. I'm just not sure which side.

When you're enjoying a beautiful sunset over the ocean that's actually late capitalism. Also no island nations have culture or anything like that.

I just can't get over this

Billions of lives lived fueled by the fruits of the sea
millennia of global intraocean trade
entire cultures whose entire history amounts to walking up and down the beach
civilizations living and dying on the backs of the tides

Polynesia, Venice, Vikings, Normandy... I don't know man, it's kind of hilarious how much is being pitched into the wastebin of history here.

I think it's more based on "just lie on the beach doing nothing" being seen as a good thing that the guy is complaining about.

Personally I disagree, and his argument just seems dumb as hell.

That just reminds me of the Green Eggs and Ham series where they get attacked by a type of wild bird that attacks anything it thinks is beneath it so to evade them you need to act impressive to scare them off - the grumpy character fails at this and takes a different tactic, exclaiming "What gives you the right to judge us anyway? You haven't even advanced as a species yet!"
