In programming and academia you only see the most gifted of society, and even many of those seem to struggle. I can barely imagine what it would be like to be in the less gifted half of the population. I wonder if such men have any chance to build a life respected, or even just work enough to found a family. They seem to have fewer options each year, to find satisfying roles in life.
They seem to receive even less understanding or sympathy.
- qntty 10y agoThis is why Trump is popular. He's the opiate of people who are left behind. People mock them for supporting Trump, but few people offer appealing alternatives.
- kirRoyale 10y agoTrump is popular because Clinton is un-electable. As someone who works in IT, I know the kinds of hoops people jump through to make sure everything is secure. And for her just to shit on those rules so willingly is un-redeemable IMO.
