- ams6110 8y agoI didn't read the comment that way. I read it as life sucks for a lot of people at times. Some dwell on it and never get past it. Others find a way to move forward, to make their own lives better instead of demanding that someone else do it.

- coliveira 8y agoThis is the whole mindset of people who want to maintain the status quo. "Just keep your mouth shut" is a mantra that only helps to maintain the oppression system.
