My experience exactly.
Growing up in the 90s in Bulgaria, my parents had to line up for hours or half a day to fill up gas in the car. This went on for weeks/months.
If I complain that people are complaining too much in the modern world, I would be complaining as well. So I won't, otherwise it will be an infinite loop.

Obligatory Monty Python sketch: "I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock in the night, half an hour before I went to bed. … And when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves, singing Hallelujah!" - Monty Python, Four Yorkshiremen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEIApUNVBKg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEIApUNVBKg
- raspasov 5y agoAbsolutely. The most horrific documented history in terms of human conditions I’ve encountered is Unit 731 in Imperial Japan.
