When I first came across Oliver Anthony and his music, I was blown away to say the least. He had a whole collection of songs that I could listen to for hour...
Love the kind of lyrical genius that can complain about people being forced to live on the streets, and then complain about people supposedly abusing welfare in the same line.
I’m always sad and embarrassed when I see someone who was “raise on welfare” and learned nothing from it.
Those of us able to think critically about our time being poor understand that no one aspires to do nothing with themselves. The despair of poverty doesn’t come from an unwillingness to do/be better; It comes from the belief that we’re **unable** to do so.
What you mistake for laziness is actually hopelessness. Having disdain for that is just a lack of empathy.

No cognitive dissonance here, no sir.
