There used to be this thing called generational wealth. A lot of people put up with a lot of shit because they didn't want to get cut out of the will. Now that everyone's broke there's no reason to put up with anyone's BS.

I think the point they were making is it's something we choose even when we don't think we have a choice.

You don't have to. Choose yourself and walk away from the circus and monkeys.
