The economy is fine! We just have… money dysmorphia. /s
The gaslighting is at warp speed now.
This is exactly what they do to social movements that threaten their bottom line.
Social media has put a new spin on keeping up with the Joneses.
Exposure to glorified lifestyles online has left many people, especially young adults, feeling financially inadequate, even if they’re doing relatively well, reports show.
This is a complete mockery of what dysphoria means to people . They know exactly what they’re doing by watering down and purposefully misusing “dysphoria” to mean “oh you’re actually doing great why are you so sad?” It’s sadistic.
dysphoria != dysmorphia.
your point still stands.
Oh yeah, what a glorified glamorous lifestyle, being able to own a home and afford living with just one job’s income.
So the media is just going to gaslight young people to make them think their inability to afford basic human needs is a perception issue now?
