Boomer with 30 million dollars earned by having uneducated conversations with uneducated women to entertain uneducated women tells young people to just “get a job”.
Blanket statements are usually made by uneducated people.
Every now and then, there’s an article about some dumb shit a person on The View says. My reaction is always surprise that The View is still even a thing.
I don’t really understand who their target audience is. They would’ve been conservative 20 years ago, but today I think they just cater to saying whatever middleclass boomers want to hear.
A combination of that and knowing that comments like that will get articles like this, garnering them more attention and views. Ragebait may have become a recent Big Problem in the algorithms of social media, but it’s been around forever. Howard Stern and Jerry Springer built their fortunes on it.
“Get out now, Barbara! This show will sink you like a stone!” - SNL
Nothing says “I’m old, rich, and out of touch” quite like “get a job, you lazy bums”
Oh no man, she’s had a rough life - started at Good Morning America as a receptionist and basically turned that into a comedy career, she’s a working stiff lol. Behar was born Josephine Victoria Occhiuto in 1942. Something tells me she’s a bit out of touch here in the 21st century.
Start from absolute zero like anyone else and you wouldn’t survive a year in today’s economy.
Bold of you to assume most people don’t start off with debt.
Just get a job? Why don’t I strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland, where jobs grow on jobbies!
She thinks everyone under 40 is jobless, collecting welfare (???) while eating avocado toast and partying all night. If she hasn’t seen the real numbers proving that housing is increasingly out of reach for younger people then her show is to blame, if she has seen the numbers but chooses to sneer “Get a Job!” because it plays to the boomer assholes then she is just a giant piece of shit.
Now that’s just not accurate. Either way she’s a giant piece of shit, it’s only a question of how ignorant she is and whether or not she’s choosing to be that way.
You’re right. She is trash either way. It’s just that I know some truly out of touch Boomers (mostly extended family members), who really do think the world is the same as it was when they were coming of age. Ignorance is no excuse, and she has no excuse to be ignorant.
What a fucking piece of shit.
Shut up and get in your grave.
Time to get in the forever box!
Many people would be surprised how many homeless people have (hard science) degrees or used to be very succesful. Bad luck, medical debt, (mental-)health issues, company goes bankrupt due to circumstances beyond your control, etc.
The world isn’t fair. You can work really hard, and end up in the oven of a concentration camp, despite what the slogan above the gate said.
Of course, if you’re a relatively talentless hack who’s won the equivalent of the lottery despite not really deserving it that much, it’s nicer to think that you deserve it because of your inate talent. Vanity. It’s the Devil’s favourite sin.
Medical debt is so underappreciated and it is no joke. It can add up very, very high and very, very quickly.

oof.
I have a CS degree and spent a couple months in my backseat.
Bow chica bow wow…oh, you meant something else… /s
I know a couple homeless men who were programmers and burned out, got depressed and gave up
“Wealthy asshole has no empathy.” I’m shocked. Fuck her. Fuck talking heads in general.
Huh, I thought that cackling hen died already.
That was Barbara Walters.
Fuck the view lol. Everyone that gets a job on that show turns into a jackass, braying their bullshit at top volume. It’s the worst side of television.
Pretty sure that’s the appeal. It’s a ragebait-circlejerk.

Poor Karan what did he do
Boomers gonna boom.
She should shut the fuck up and let Taylor Swift say the smart and helpful shit. She is the Boomer-iest of Boomers 😤
