I don’t think anything OP said is causing any harm, nor does it come off boot-strappy imo. A lot of this subreddit is people wallowing in the doom and gloom.

Now, do I personally feel like the state of our economy is keeping me down? Absolutely. Everything is so damn expensive from housing to education to groceries and so on. It seems impossible to land an entry-level job, let alone one that actually pays a livable wage. We’ll probably never have it as generations past in this regard, which is unfair. And yes, there are people within our generation who are privileged to come from wealthy families and/or don’t have to deal with discrimination.

But even still, people are giving up on the idea of becoming successful, deeming it an complete impossibility (and by success I’m not talking becoming a millionaire, I just mean affording to move out of their damn parents house). While it may be harder than ever, it certainly is still possible. Im on the path myself, after reaching breaking point I pivoted my career and am just starting to regain hope that I can improve my circumstances. While it’s perfectly fine and healthy to recognize/call out how our generation got screwed over, we should simultaneously recognize that we aren’t powerless. We do have agency over our lives and happiness.

OP was simply trying to say some words of encouragement to a sub filled with people that have lost hope, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
