I saw somewhere “metal heads are nice people cosplaying as mean people, and hippies are mean people cosplaying as nice people” and I’ve never been able to unhear that
My school literally has a club where they go to Kenya to help poor communities, if the thousands of dollars EACH student payed for the trip was donated it would've been more helpful than them moving dirt and taking pictures of themselves with little kids to make them look better on social media and their college applications. The word voluntourism just made my day because this stuff has been bothering me for so long lmao.
How do you ensure the money is properly managed by whoever is receiving it. Typically stuff like that ends up finding abusive terrorists or gangs who control opressed people in these regions
@@ericrowe5232 The problem with charity ending up in the wrong hands isn't somehow "solved" by American school groups and church groups going over there to volunteer themselves. If anything those groups are probably more likely to be taken advantage of by bad actors than a savvy local organization would be.
As a indigenous person I love that everyone who claims to have "native ancestry" says they have a grandfather that was a Cherokee chief or a grandmother who was a Cherokee princess, like how come none of you had a relative that was just a random indigenous person lol
Not one of these kinds of folks but I can say I recall my family trying to look into the family tree for decades and claiming we had Cherokee ancestry ( I'm from the Deep South in the USA, supposedly mainly Irish, Scottish, French and German descent.. from both sides of the family ). I think at least in the South a lot of claims are that we have some Native American but usually hear of Cherokee links in these parts.
Yeah there’s a rumor on my dad’s side of the family (French-Canadian descent) that one of my great grandmas was a Native American princess. Adamant even. But no proof, don’t know her name, don’t know which tribe she was born to, don’t know which out of the many great grandmas she was. Sigh.
I lived in a hippie town for a bit. We referred to them as "Yippies". Just a combination of yuppie and hippie. Most of em are trust fund babies or have filthy rich parents.
I hate the trustifarians because they made van life expensive. I lived out of my car for two years and I'm about to go back to living in my vehicle at the rate of how expensive housing is. I can't find a van cheap anymore, all of them are expensive as hell because they want to cash in on these rich kids.
I was homeless in my van circa 2005-2010. I got a '79 Chevy beauville for $400 and rebuilt the carb. I lost it because of expired license and no insurance. It's a $10k+ van now
“My great grandad was a cherokee chief” is the most WASP thing you could possibly say. No ones ever related to the pima, lumbee, cree, osage, ect. Its always,ALWAYS, some cherokee chief or princess
RIGHT. And the BEST PART is that if she was actually in a fully Spanish speaking household, going to visit her relatives in Mexico constantly but didn't come from money you'd have to assume she lived in the American Southwest. You know, the opposite side of the country from where the majority of Cherokee tribes even are lmao
"Native American and Cherokee and Irish" For people like this, it usually means the person is 95% European, with some distant native ancestry. She's not slick. 😂
@@doggg4977white Anglo Saxon Protestant. Which this person clearly is not Protestant but the rest is probably accurate. If she’s correct about the Irish thing she’s not Anglo Saxon either. It’s how old people say “white” basically
Straight up reminds me of back in middle school, my case was to a far lesser extent. I'd get week long in-school suspensions for being a mere one minute late to math class (which was up a massive flight of stairs) while mr rich boy and his buddies got to threaten the school and it's students with firearms via social media posts, get caught with a genuine firearm the day he said he was going to go through with it, and get a day and a half of ISS. That shouldve been expulsion, juvy, the whole nine yards but nooooooo.

I've seen a few people do this in Dublin Ireland and NYC. The Rubberbandits(Irish comedy duo from the 2000s)wrote a great track about it called "Are you a hipster or a hobo" making fun of this shite. The "trustifarians" have been around since the 90s. They're absolute imbeciles.
Yeah, I moved out of Tijuana, Mex because everyone there is rude, ignorant, and stressed out. I told myself, “I need to save money, but I rather spend more and not deal with this situation!” I moved to a nicer area and I’m never looking back! I think, if anyone is given the chance to move out of a poor area, they’d do it in a heart beat!

In a way I almost feel sorry for them. Sure they live more comfortable lives than we do but imagine going your entire life completely disconnected from reality and being a husk of a human being spiritually and mentally.
@@dwellner502 I agree but now think about being someone who thinks they are spiritually better living an amazing personally curated reality and thinking everybody else is a husk for not waking to the "scheme" but you're absolutely filthy rich. I think it's definitely perspective but I feel like your take is something poor people say to feel better about the tragedy of our economy, Disclaimer I am 26 living paycheck to paycheck saving 500 a year at best.
Yea this is entirely not true. Thousands of kids skipped work and school for years while hitch hiking with dimes in their pockets. Many of them if not most were middle class or lower children of the ww2 generation.
No, some of them come from poverty, they simply fund their life with more traditional methods like repair/reuse, street performance, stealing, selling art etc.
I knew a bunch of kids in high school that were like this. I was one of the few poor kids that lived on the outskirts of a rich neighborhood, so I went to the local high school. The school was like something you'd see on TV. The cafeteria had its own sub line and pizza spot, every day, on top of the regular hot lunch. There was even coolers filled with different soft drinks and teas and whatnot. One of the girls from this wannabe hippie group, invited me to a party. I brought a sick bong, took my eyes off of it, and one of those rich a-holes stole it off the table. They are super stingy though, rude, and unwelcoming. They were nothing like the real hippies. They would use people if they saw something that they liked or wanted. They would dress the part and paint their rooms all psychedelic, with mushrooms and fairies and shit, but were the worst group of kids I ever met. They were so stuck up and exclusionary. I saw one of the girls crying in the bathroom, ask her if she was okay, and she basically told me to mind my business. Same girl liked my drawings and asked me to draw some psychedelic pics on her cloth bag. Then she acted like she didn't know me. Oh, and I've met the rich Buddhists too. Also, the meanest, most unwelcoming narcissists you've ever met.
My father was born in the late 40s, after he got out of the military he became close to the idea of becoming a hippie, and honestly he told me the exact same thing about many people he met during his time in that lifestyle, ultimately why he left, said a large majority of them were just garbage human beings.
@istoppedcaring6209 I wasn't around back then, so I don't know from experience. From videos from back then and first hand accounts, I heard that the hippies from the 60s were extremely nice, welcoming, and generous. Complete strangers were climbing into each other's apartment windows and just hanging out with each other. They would do anything for each other, just out of love. That's how much of the youth got around, through hitch hiking ..and the driver was happy to do it.
@istoppedcaring6209 Don't get me wrong, I don't support the hippie movement, though. I think the movement was used to start the decay in American family values.
@@angelaramirez4144 And who told you that, the ex hippy idiots who were blowing their brains to bits with psychedelics and contracting every sexually transmitted disease under the sun?
I have a trustafarian friend. He travelled the country, hitchhiking, eating from trash cans, and sleeping on everyone's couch. He was so carefree until he got a girl pregnant and his parents cut him off. Now he's just as irritable and disappointed as the rest of us.
I grew up a homeless orphan. Even in America, even decades ago, people used it was clout. Politicians give you a crappy coat for winter for a photoshoot then bug off immediately. Your "Big Brother" from Big Brothers/Big Sisters parades you around their church to show how selfless they are. Rich foster parents make you sit in the living room when guests are over like you're decoration.
I heard the same thing specifically about foster parents from a friend in the same situation. They would put locks on cabinets with valuables in them because they were worried she would steal from them but used her like a show and tell. We're such good people, we donate so much to poor children abroad through our church, here's our very own urchin that we're civilising.
and even if it was true, u are so far removed from that person culturally, genetically and temporally that u have literally nothing to do with native americans anymore, same with americans saying they are irish, they arent at all they are far too removed
seriously lol. as a Dakota, i’ve met some real Cherokee people. i have a cousin who is actually part Cherokee, but i have yet to meet someone who is actually descended from a cherokee princess 😂
I grew up n Lake Tahoe and she’s squatting in that place. It’s owned by a man “Jeff” who recently shot himself in the face and lived. I don’t know how she got in maybe through some of his weird hot tub parties but he’s currently in a psych ward and she’s pretending that his house is hers.
well, even when its a sham, at least technically they buy work for the local contractors. could be even worse and do as chinese do, they bring their own chinese workers and dont even give locals the jobs.
@@Redmanticore I was going to say the same thing, I figured it was a scam sort of like those "Pimp my ride" type tv shows and whatnot. But I mean if the communities benefit by getting a little influx in the local economy and like a little bridge built in their town or something I'm all for it.🤷 I typically assume someone doing stuff like this is often to make themselves looks good but if people actually do benefit from it even though the people didn't actually do it sincerely, who cares?
@@RedmanticoreYet those local contractors don’t get any credit for their considerable labours because some over privileged work shy western kid claimed it all via social media. And for laying a couple of bricks down, badly, to boot. 🙁
@@Redmanticore Yeah I think Papameat expressed his opinion too shortsighted and polarized. Even though the volonteering program is a charade, the money is going to the organization and local people there, the rich kids also do get a sense of what's going on in the world and they at least try the help. I'm not that big a fan of people sitting behind a desk complaining about others but everyone has a right to their own thoughts.
Man hippies back then were also rich as hell. Found out most of them in the 60's and 70's had stupidly rich families to where they could afford to do that shit
almost all their families made their fortunes participating in US empire building, too. It's no wonder their kids have a guilty conscience over "Colonization"
@talesofgore9424 yup, also later then they come to my native language of Spanish, and impose changes to it by introducing their whole LatinX bullshit. All in the name of "inclusiveness". All I hear is, "your language is decades behind, you're uncivilized, you need correction, and I'm the one who will bring that change you need." Like, hey, dumbass, Spanish already has gender neutral pronouns, it already conforms to current societal norms. You just don't like it, and when you, and your white privilege doesn't like it, then no one else can like it. So to hell with what we think, what we believe in, and what direction we're going in, we need to be colonized again.
my dad was a poor hippie and he said the trust fund kids always pretended but were never accepted in because they were square then they formed their own circles. you could tell because they had all the fur and where dressed up to the 9s vs ripped tie dye clothes and band Ts of the real hippies. dad also said "the movement was a failure the 80s blasted capitalism to new heights weed got swapped for coke and speed and changed all the hippies"
@@calebahart8958their kids, the kids born in the 60s were the reagan youth, which makes sense since kids rebel against their parents so when your parent is a gross hippie being a yuppie doesnt seem so bad
I have an uncle who fell for one of these new age hippie girls. I heard someone say "These are the type of women who will cheat on you and forgive themselves for it" and its the truest statement I've ever heard about these people. Uncle got in a situation where she siphoned court payments from an accident and he now lives in a hotel while she took a literal million dollars from him. She does not give a fuck and has a website offering "spiritual consulting"
Im watching this vid now to make a video about these "so called" spiritual advisor i mean i believe the stuff but not the self absorbed money hungry corporate money making ego .i truly have no sympathy for these Spiritual leaders .
This kind of reminds me of a younger Steve Jobs when I saw a video about his past and he was an asshole that was into spiritual stuff, except that he was cutthroat instead of a gold digger
A couple years back, I turned this trend into a DnD character. A high elf barbarian with the noble background. Trust fund hippie, who's never had to work a day in his life and went to Fantasy Burning Man once. The source of his rage was how disappointed his parents were in him.
My Mum was a hippy back in the 70's and she eventually got a Psychology degree; mainly so she could start and win every argument using mind games because she was actually completely bonkers. Hippies are the absolute opposite of what they pretend to be.
Boomers are the first generation that became obsessed with self-gratification and finding themselves. All their hippy dippy shit was just to protest against their uptight, right wing parents. Ironically, their generation had the most opportunity.
That sounds accurate, my mom and aunt both went to college to play mind games. Yeah, they took psychology. They know fucking with people makes them feel bad, but hey big brain, small heart. Fucking self obsessed psychos.
Fun fact: Shanin and her posse went to Hawaii when the fires happened. Got told by a local that knew about her that the government said tourists had to leave, and *allegedly* her group still stayed on the island for 3 days to sightsee before leaving. Which just adds that extra layer of insult to Shanin flippantly using the Hawaiian way of saying sorry (a sacred phrase/ritual) in her song.
I do landscaping for a living and we maintain several multi-million dollar estates near a ski resort (summer acitivty) area, it is a very upscale area and the propery value is probably unbelievably high. MOST of the yards we do, nobody is there.. ever. The monstrous 10-20 bedroom houses just sit there, in immaculate condition, with nobody living inside. I'd say over 90% of the properties we landscape are empty homes that are owned by millionaires but never actually used/lived in. They also pay my boss $7,500 a summer for landscaping service, which is just mowing trimming and trash/stick removal, some light mulching. They pay 10k a summer to have a beautiful yard attached to their 12M home they never even visit. Inequality is 100% absolutely sickeningly out of Control. Also side Story: my couson went on a volunteer trip with his highschool years ago to Africa for a week to help a village that had recently had some form of natural disaster. The school paid for him and 1 other student to go and they were 2 of 100s that signed up. In their group he said there was a group of wealthy kids from Washington, who also had volunteered to help but paid their own way on the trip. Apparently when the instructor got them to an area near the African village and handed everyone gloves and trashbags to help clean up garbage, the rich kids REFUSED and even sat on the ground in a mini protest of having to "work" for the volunteer group.. my cousin said the worst part was that the instructor gave in, let the rich kids do something else that wasn't physical work, and they badically just had a weeks long vacation in Africa. And he said they complained about their accommodations the entire time they were there. This whole video is true. This is absolutely ehat reality has become. The rich think they are truly more than Human. 🤢 Sorry for the essay 😅
I truly believe that there should be a legal limit set as to how much money an individual can have at any one time. It wouldn't be a flat number necessarily, but at least be estimated by the current inflation in that area. I'm honestly so sick and tired of the same old excuses that I keep hearing defending people hoarding wealth like this. Like "Why even try if I can't become rich" or "If you just try hard enough it could be you some day". Firstly the cap could allow for millionares; which I believe is still more than enough money for anyone to live off of, just not bilionares, and if that still isn't good enough, well, to bad. Secondly, no. While it may technically be possible for someone to become rich through hard work and effort it statistically doesn't happen almost ever and any competition against an extremely wealthy company as an individual or small startup will end in certain death for your company in certain industries. I'm not saying all rich people are bad or that even most of them are, just that the very existence of them and the amount of wealth they carry is what is causing the problem here. Some people need to stop pretending that this is a lazy people vs successful people problem and need to understand that these rich people did not put in equal "work" into earning every dollar they have compared to what the rest of us put in to make that dollar. I'm not saying these people did not put in effort to become rich and agree that working smart not hard should take you further than just working hard, but there needs to be a limit as to how far that takes you.
@@seanmoreno5694 The issue with that analysis is that those people get their money from exchange of good or services like anyone else. If it’s nepotism it’s a different story, but the wealth is accumulated usually from a business that becomes very successful due to regular people buying that good or service. Which makes it ultimately the buyer’s fault for giving them their money. It’s a lot like how people complain about Amazon and keep buying from them, how can Amazon not be rich if people keep giving them loads of money to get their products with one day shipping? It’s a really good business model, and people enjoy it. They aren’t going to think about the fact that Amazon will predatorily host a small business, and when that business’s product becomes popular and starts making money, they will steal the idea and cheaply outsource it to factories in Asia. It’s a really corrupt thing to do, but that simply doesn’t outweigh the convenience of their service. I have not bought and will never buy products from Amazon for the reason I mentioned above.
@@seanmoreno5694 I concur with your overall philosophy. The problem that I have, is that the US government is highly untrustworthy by nature. This is the only thing keeping me from giving them even more legal capabilities. If this were say, Sweden or something; I would have no hangups about giving the government more power to control the rich. I'm no anti-American. But this government has so many outright atrocities under it's belt, I feel like its almost beyond trust.
They should've left them in Africa. It's weird how much power we give rich people. In Africa, they'd be someone's beach but in America they're worshipped. Why is that? They only have power because society allows them to trade money for power.
You think they should let their lawn turn trash because they’re not there? It’s called being respectable to your neighbors and community. Everyone should always keep their lawn trimmed no matter what. They’re not in the wrong. If it costs thousands to get that done then guess what? It just has to be done, no one’s gonna maintain all that for a summer without requesting thousands . That’s how the world is. There are more important things happening in mass around us like poverty. Ridiculous tax and Child trafficking.
happens in the punk scene also, trust fund punks be living like us suposedly paycheck to paycheck screaming fuck 12 but call the cops the second they slightly scared
Very untrue when you’ve actually tried it. Guess you will never know unless you do. Until then you know absolutely nothing about it. Dmt is the spirit molecule and has been the molecule of healing since before America was ever even formed. Something nobody who got their information from our government should ever even talk about. Because they lied to all of you about it. It’s a very beautiful and useful healing tool that has helped people out of their addictions and all kinds of problems.
@@agelochabaria8135 a few of the more credible traditional religions such as the Orthodox Christian church believe that taking hardcore psychedelic drugs dissolves the natural and healthy boundary between your own mind/soul and the “noetic” realm where spirits dwell, leaving you wide open to be oppressed or deceived by demons. And honestly I could believe it. I’ve seen dudes that go into decade long episodes of pure despair because of what they saw in bad trips, completely changed into a shell of who they were, or they become so deluded by some idea about the world they got when they were high that they can’t see anything else as true other than that idea. They think they figured out the world yet it’s always just some version of solipsism or another, like some other entity is telling all these people the same lie. So much for taking drugs to induce ego-death lol.
@@iLoVeaNiMeS101 Yes they did, they stood for being spoiled brats raised during one of the most prosperous times in human history, and complaining about how stiff their parents were ( who had just undergone one of the bloodiest periods in human history) and how having frivolous sex, overdosing on copious drugs and destroying social norms would surely be the wave of the future.... they would later go one to quit the peace, love and happiness shtick and hoard the wealth and political power of multiple generations while failing to effectively raise children who could cope with the basic requirements demanded of them hence the spike in children strung out on zoloft, prozac, adderall, etc. 😂
It's true that the og hippie movement wasn't a working class movement but a middle class one but disregarding what they achieved and the importance of hippie counter culture is wild to me... Calling people who were really devoted to peace and fighting consumerism cosplayers is very disrespectful and a really ignorant perspective
I worked with one of these people once. His Dad had died when he was young and he was left with a large trust fund. At age 16 his mother found out he had smoked marijuana so she immediately sent him to military school. In military school he started using the hard drugs that the rich kids were using. After military school he went to an expensive "hippy college". He got a bachelors degree in "adventure travel". I laughed and asked him what he planned to do with that degree and he said "nothing". He thought he was going to get a huge sum of money from the trust fund when he turned 21. It turns out his mother spent all his trust fund on his college degree and her living expenses. He died of a drug overdose a few years later.

My friend and I did the math for missionary lady. On the lowest end and with the highest benefit of the doubt (being her direct actions only killing 1 person a month). Her total is 98 dead which puts her top 4 of the serial killer list by victims. Edit: parentheses

He said that if you try to be as generous with that fake Ugandan doctor as possible, doing the math in her favor and writing her kill count as low as statistically possible, she would still be considered to have killed enough impoverished children to lead the ranks of most heinous serial killers of all time.

As a licensed nurse for over 30 years, sometimes you need to open your f***ing eyes to what is going on down the street, down the block, in your own f***ing city/town. Starving on the street corner and sleeping in a tent with your two children trying to survive? Sorry, I've got a date with an orphanage in Nambia. Sick.
it's fucking insane how even living in a van has been gentrified. my man... u paid 150k to be homeless? same with the tiny house trend that was so popular a few years ago. where i grew up we had a community of "tiny houses" nearby, it was called a trailer park lmao
so, I was homeless but also had a (what i guess we call trustifarian now) friend in my hometown. Their dad worked for Apple in a corporate position, they lived in a huge house, pretty much a farmhouse, but without the farm and they were definitely more folk/gutter an-com punk, rather than holistic crystal healer/hippie, however, had good acid either way. So when I was homeless, they just joined me. Honestly, I don't know how I would have survived without them. They kept me fed and taught me some traveling kid skills to survive the streets. They went on to travel across the country, diving dumpsters to feed people in the Vegas tunnels and Slab City. However, I should say, their parent's support was kinda to a minimal, they were mostly independent, but was given the old family van to travel. But they definitely didn't like their free spirited nature, as they were a strictly conservative Christian household. They eventually passed away due to a drug overdose in their parents' home years after all these adventures. They were my best friend and I miss them everyday. Sorry to put a damper on that. Just wanted to respect one of the good ones. However, there was another, not as rich of a family, but definitely glorified being homeless and just being a scumbag. Now, he was way more holistic healing/ hippie type. Had dreads, would beg for money when he had hundreds and parents that would wire him if it came down to it, shamed me for declining to join, while being homeless with no choice. He went on to be a serial SA offender. So yeah, just a horrible scumbag.
Ive never heard of it, in the metal scene theyre called posers, Juggalos call them Juffalos. These types specifically you could call hippies, lots of the hippies were fake historically. lol
As a person that actually grew in the Amazon region, it's actually disgusting this rich gringos coming here and use Ayahuasca to get high, this actually cultural, part of religious practices of many tribes, and also very dangerous, many people die due to bad practices when drinking Ayahuasca irresponsibly
as a person from a third world country, this is true, sometimes they disrespect our culture, expect us to change our ways just because they are around (like speaking their language), waste our resources and complain about the poor conditions. but i also see this a lot with rich people in general "visiting" poor areas and treating it like a show. im from a rich family and have seen good friends of mine impressed that poor people "are just like us" its really disgusting
Shit if you wanna complain about being from a rich family give me your share. Can't really bash your rich friends for being rich while being rich yourself. 😂
Lol the audacity of you... How many of your countrymen are in 1st world countries against the wishes of the native population huh?....yeeeeah that's what I thought how dare you point your DIRTY fingers when you people are worse 🤗
I went on student exchange into an aristocratic French family. Their son tried so hard to be a relaxed surfer/hippieguy. Funniest moment was when he was skateboarding casually around a 5* ski resort in the Alps during Summer blasting Bob Marley and wearing a Jamaican beanie. Wasn't going anywhere. Just wanted to people to see how chill he was. Note: he was definitely *not* chill.
As a very lower middle class ex vanlifer I absolutely agree. I converted a chevy astro and lived in it for like 3 months before it completely died. I'm gonna try again, but I don't see how someone can live that life and make enough money to live the way they do. especially those who buy 70k sprinter vans, or they spend like 130k on an already tricked out adventure mobile.
My estranged younger sister is actually dating one of these types of ppl. He’s from a richer Christian family, and graduated as a valedictorian at my high school, but he dresses like a massive hippie, has chakra tattoos all across his back, and even traveled with my sister all across India and some parts of South American and North Africa all on a “retreat” to “find his place in the world.” It’s absolutely ridiculous.
i never understood that shit, how is going to India or some BS "mystic eastern" country going to help you find yourself or the meaning of life? Nobody knows the meaning you gotta find it define it for yourself and find your place in this world, I wish I could afford to travel, I want to travel to see stuff, try the food, and enjoy different cultures.
My dad worked at Boeing, ended up flying to the Pentagon to save as many contracts as he could. His bosses said he saved the company. He got nothing for it.
The main reason why these people don’t help locally is because sending a $100 annual donation to your local food bank is much less flashy than Instagram photos. It proves it really just about the photos about the reputation and not about actually helping people. I think you’re right on the money about that.
I was friends with one 25 years ago in college. He was our dorms weed dealer. He never set out to be a drug dealer he just always had weed and kinda became the dealer for the building. Dude was from Los Gatos California (silicon valley). We'd get high and make him tell us rich kid stories. He told us how Steve Woznick (yeah he actually lived in the same neighborhood as the Woz) would throw parties and give out super expensive apple products as prizes to guests. Once a kid he knew won an iBook and you'll never guess what that little shit did. The kid went up to Steve Fucking Wozniak and asked him if he can give him a better one with more ram instead! The dude just won a laptop that when adjusted for inflation cost in the neighborhood of 3 grand and he GAVE IT BACK because he wanted something better! And Steve didn't even bat an eye, he just took it and said "sure" and apologized! That's the only story that stuck out since it was so long ago and I was always high when he told the stories. He did say though how at his high school it wasn't uncommon for girls to get rhinoplasty and boob jobs for their 16th birthday. Anyways the dude presented himself as a total hippie and would complain about spoiled rich kids and how he and his parents weren't rich. Then one day his parents come to visit him and that weekend decided they love the town and decided to buy a million dollar home in the area all on a whim. The only thing my buddy cared about was that he'd have to deal with them more often. Didn't even occur to him that just deciding to buy a house, much less a house costing millions of dollars, isn't something "not rich" people can do. I grew up in a house that could have been in the movie Gummo, that fucker should have been giving me weed for free.
As someone who went to Los Gatos High somewhat recently, it was a miserable place and a solid 60% of the kids there were exactly like that mf. Kids who would judge you by how much money you have, would go on crazy vacations renting out huge airBnBs with their friends unsupervised, and throw mansion parties, but then complain about how broke they were or insist they weren't spoiled because the Mercedes they got for their 16th birthday was used instead of new. At the time my parents were both struggling to make ends meet for the first time since I was born so the way these assholes behaved was infuriating. Los Gatos is 100% one of the places this trustafarian problem was created because everyone's parents are so focused on their jobs and rich lifestyle they don't take the time to raise their kids and just throw money at them instead.
@@BenadryIIionaire Yeah at first I didn't believe him 100% because of how crazy it sounded. A part of me wondered if he was making stuff up just to fit in. But when his parents bought the house I realized it was all real. At some point I noticed that rich friends acted a little ashamed after I realized that they were loaded. It was wild because they sorta acted the same way that a poor person would act if news got out that they were dirt poor.
Some metalheads are garbage, some hippies are gold. Just like some jocks are wonderful human beings, and the artsy kids are bullies. Crazy how that works.
@@Youllpayforthat The Humboldt I'm talking about is from 35 years ago. We called the rich white HSU students with dreads and shabby clothes Trustafarians. or "Fakin' Jamaicans".
Im glad you addressed this dude, living in a third world country i know what REAL poverty is, and it is not something to be romanticized, it is terrible living in a condition in which you have to pray to god to have enough money to buy food next month, to pay the rent, to buy new clothes and to at least buy a gift for yourself at least one time in 5 or 10 years, cause hardly there is money enough for a poor people to have this privilege. It's frustrating and infuriating sometimes to see middle class/rich people impersonating a poor person, just because they want to feel more "cool" and like they're from the "streets", and that isn't a thing restricted to the US or Europe only, here in brazil there are the "special" snowflakes lucky enough to born super rich, and still act like they live in the middle of a extremely poor neighborhood, and brag about this on social media also. It's fucking ridiculous.
@@ThatGuyinAnotherHatch Unlike most Americans, us Brazilians learn proper English before shit talking. But whatever man, still getting paid more I guess
it isn’t third world broz. it’s underdeveloped. third world is no longer used as a class because it assumes the Soviet Bloc is still around, and however if we do assume that they are around and we colloquially refer 3rd world as poor, how is Saudi Arabia poor? ESPECIALLY in the 1950s when that term was coined?
Rich people pretending to be with "nature" or dress "poor" has always been a trend in the 2000s because honestly they got nothing better to do, they're bored.
As a rich person, I dress poor (or not at all) because it takes a lot less effort than dressing rich. Also I don't need to impress anyone by dressing up, which is what poor people are more worried about.
@@clray123 there is a study on more active rich social circles and you DO need to keep spending or else you lost status and the sense of being rich. that's why a good number of rich do it.
As a Cherokee, Shanon B is hella offensive, Im tired of hearing the " Um actually my grandma was a cherokke princess" Yeah and I own a Penthouse on the moon
Lol Fr my ex had parents who actually were blue-collar, BUT her dad busted his ass and ended up as the head maintenance man at a literal fucking mansion with like suits of armor and a movie theater and an elevator in Snowmass, CO. He made fantastic money, and they had multiple vehicles (like 3 different Jeeps, a Tahoe, little Toyota, and a new-ish [at the time] Ford F-150 AND her dad had a motorcycle. Their house was HUGE compared to the houses I’ve lived in. & her mom didn’t “have” to work, but she did, cause she wanted to make herself useful. In addition to cooking delicious meals and cleaning. Her mom was from East L.A., her dad was a big bearded scary biker-ish white boy from central California. She was born & raised in Vegas, but her parents moved her and her sister to Colorado when she was like 12-ish. her sister went to a Ross Montessori elementary school, and she had like nice cameras cause she was a “photographer” but she did the whole “dreadlocks with straight-textured reddish-brown hair” and “half-sun/half-moon tattoo” and “I’m a free spirit, that’s why I bang a lot and I have to follow my Heart” woo-woo hippy bullshit. Well, she went to [branch of the military] and that was basically the end. Because I had a juvenile record that kept me from being able to enlist for atleast 7 years before I could even apply to get a waiver. And we broke up. At the time I was a stupid kid, and I didn’t realize how corny she was. (And hey, I was probably corny, too 🤷♂️) but I find the hippy stuff so annoying. Unless it comes off as, like, genuine. She always acted as though she could relate to me. I grew up in the ghetto. With an abusive stepfather, a drug-addicted mother who was on workman’s comp and welfare for much of mine and my sister’s childhood, we were left home alone for usually 12 hours at a time because my mom would work 7am-7pm for a month, then 7pm-7am for a month. Sometimes for dinner all we had was fried ground beef with ketchup. And ramen noodles. We had gunshots going off in the alleys at night, and meth/crackheads breaking into our garage every other night. Syringes and used c0nd0ms in the gutter. One of my best friends di3d in a police chase when I was like 14. I could go on and on. I’m not saying she had the “easiest” life. But it was just like, “we did NOT grow up the same… you have NO IDEA”….. She became a “Buddhist” lol. Yeah, chick… you’re a Buddhist. With your fancy expensive camera and $400 Dre Beats headphones, and your 20mm cannon rounds. Sureeeee.
Van life when you're rich: travel everywhere, never sleep in the same place twice Van life when you're poor: 12mpg with a 30gal tank = lmao you thought you were going somewhere this week
Fun fact: a lot of rich women with money actually induce pregnancy early to minimize stretch marks. It's probably really unhealthy to do this but like most top models do this
Yeah, my impression is that many (wealthy) models just choose to give birth early because their body can bounce back better and get back to work (modeling), especially if they have to wear skimpy clothing regularly
East African countries did try to ban second hand clothing so as to boost our own textile industries but only Rwanda implemented it and was excluded from AGOA by the US as punishment.
And the ban didn't work. I went into a shop in Kigali in 2023 and found lots of "new" American clothes (with sports teams logos and high school clubs and sorority shirts) for sale. They were clearly not new.
yep, people love to blame either colonialism on one side or corruption, genetics, culture,... on the other but in truth all of that pales in comparisson with the simple truth that they are not allowed to govern their own trade policy and absolutely can't impose tarrifs that would allow them to build up their own industries. All the other stuff plays a role in it but litterally every industrialised country had to do just that including the US
I did van life for a bit. Basically a mini van with a mattress. It is a form of homelessness, but there's also something very meaningful about being able to just go.
What I find interesting about that girl with the 1.1m follows. She's promoting self love but she uses intense video filters to change her appearance, like make her hips slimmer. Clearly all a hustle and not sincere. Money at the root of all evil ect...
As a former broke hippie these guys kept me stoned for free during my 20's working dead end jobs while being an artist. Now I work in the trades, I would like to thank them for letting me mooch before I was stable
They were called Yippies in the 60’s, a combination of Yuppie and Hippie. We started calling them Trustafarians in the early 90’s! It’s mos def NOT a New Term.
Right. Trustafarian was being used in the late 80's. Just because this guy Papa Meat is a Millennial Moronifarian RUclipsr doesn't mean that the whole world started yesterday.
Yippies stands for “Youth International Party.” It’s not necessarily related to yuppies. In fact, yuppie as a term came about some 10-20 years after the yippies were a thing.
@@boff1n Becoming aware of something and then thinking that you thought about it first is a fairly common thing. For example, the Boomers seemed to think they discovered pot and invented sex, then they discovered parenting in the '90's.
Hippies do coke? I thought they were strictly against it because it doesn't induce the same kind of high or "meditation" or whatever the fuck. Always thought they were strictly psychadelics users and or weed.
Lol when I was 17 I was doing the international baccalaureate and you need to do 180 hours of CAS (creativity, action and service). My school knew that none of us would be able to complete 60 hours of community service on our own so we spent like 10 or 20 hours "fundraising" (asking parents to give us money) and then traveled to Malaysia to "build houses for the poor". Fun fact: none of us knew jack shit about building houses. We had a local Malay mason named Mickley who loved Spider-Man who attempted to teach us how to lay bricks (umm, maybe 1 or 2 kids out of our 20+ class actually figured out how to build a semi-straight wall by the end of the trip). Everything that we did had to be redone by pros after we left lmao. But I keenely remember the feeling of mixing cement with a shovle in 80% humidity under the tropical 30 degree sun and thinking to myself "I get why these people are poor, I wouldn't want to build a house for myself given how fucking hard it is under these conditions" lmao. Also as a practical joke I think one of the local Malay coordinators had some of the more pretentious and annoying boys and girls from the class go step in a literal raw sewage canal and "excavate it" so that the shit could flow from a Point A to point B without our teacher's knowledge. When our teachers found out about how unsanitary it was they freaked out cos they were afraid one of the kids might contract some horrible tropical disease and die. I was just peeing myself laughing at the time thinking of the "pretty girls" being told to literally stand in a river of shit and try to dig it as some kind of a cruel joke from this Malay guy that was like "fuck these kids" xD. All in all, 10/10 experience would recommend to all future generations of Trustafarians xD
Well, people spend millennia building their own shelters suited to their own environmental pressures, then along come a bunch of white people to tell them their gods are wrong, their values are wrong, their economy's wrong, their fashion's wrong, etc. Suddenly, places that had no concept of poverty suddenly have abject poverty and their society is being forced to adapt to the values and expectations of white foreigners.
The term "trustafarian" is not new slang. We used it 20+ years ago to refer to the rich downtown NYC crust punks, so I imagine it's been around at least a few decades if not more...
A girl I went to highschool with did this. Her family was well off but she became homeless "by choice," dressed like those in this video, and mooching off the generosity of people that could have gone to actual people in need.
I'm not saying in her case, but there is a darker side to this. There are initiations into certain groups, that require you to do things like that. If you know someone whose into weird occult things and they suddenly go homeless by choice, then suddenly have a bunch of money and influence, they might have done the ritual. I knew a guy who always talked about being "illuminated", his dad was really far down the rabbit hole, and one day he went and lived on the street. Like a cult basically, but these people actually have power and connections.
It is often done with good intentions. Often encouraged by rich parents who do not wish their kids to be "spoiled" and wish to them to develop some empathy. Same is the case with donations, they often occur because they make rich people feel better about themselves and experience gratefulness from the receivers. It actually only shows they are human like everyone else, and sometimes more naive and less cynical than the "street-smart" folks who are milking them.
My sister was in an orphanage in Africa and yes, there was a horrible culture of child trafficking and other horrible crimes as parents needed money to survive and the orphanages who were making a lot of it from trafficking and actual adoptions were able to provide it. They would basically buy children and then sell them or parade them to rich westerners. Needless to say, after my sister was adopted, my dad told the president of the orphanage that if they see each other again that the president guy will not be making it out alive. People like trustafarians are often ignorant to the reality of these situations and think by spreading their "wisdom" they are helping those around them and that throwing money at the problem will fix it. Unfortunately, so much of this money just funnels to the corrupt politicians and criminals leading these communities, causing there to be no progress in the development of these areas.
reminds me of the kid i knew in college with a seemingly endless supply of weed who thrifted at places that charged $30 for a shirt while complaining about being broke. mf had a pool in the backyard of his new york suburban mcmansion and played the oppression olympics so fuckin hard
No shortage of those kids where I was from growing up. Especially when the 2000''s hits and everybody was "gangster" and "street". Their street being a three story house in a gated community.
Him being "broke" (nevermind the money his family clearly had) was his own fault. I knew somebody who would happily spend money everyday going out to eat, on alcohol, going to the club, getting her hair and nails done, buying new clothes, etc. She once told me that she could easily spend $200+ per DAY... She was broke only in the sense that she spent paycheck to paycheck.
The voluntourism strikes a chord with me. I preparing an application for medical school and they require so many “service” hours logged with underserved communities. There are trips sponsored by universities or other entities that take you to the Dominican Republic where we hand out toilet paper and take pictures. We don’t go to Haiti because it has more dangerous crime and worse infrastructure. I was in the Army before going back to school, it’s like regressing back into childhood. You’re chaperoned, security is provided. It’s like a conveyor belt where you get your packaged experience.
all over the world.... in india recently a 17 yr old kid got drunk and killed a young couple on a bike with his porsche taycan. he was detained for 15 hrs and released on bail on the following conditions of undergoing counseling and writing a 300 word essay on traffic laws. guy's dad had a politician to get the kid out of prison, where he was being treated like a VIP by the police with pizzas and snacks.
I see nothing wrong. His family worked hard to make money so they could afford nice things like their own police. Sorry not sorry. Maybe instead of being a salty brokie, you work harder so your kids can benefit. U LAZYYYYY.
Voluntourism needs to be talked about more! I wanted to take a gap year where I would take two trips abroad where I could explore other cultures and give my time to a good cause. But not being wealthy, I would work serving tables at home between trips to save up and pay for my travels. I found a legitimate organization called Volunteer HQ that connects volunteers abroad with LOCAL (key word there) volunteer groups, supplying them with a labor force. This means you are actually helping a group that needs it, not, for example, paying $10k to “save the elephants” while actually just riding and petting them, which isn’t helpful. The organization was very affordable and placed emphasis on teaching you about the local culture. I couldn’t recommend it more! I had the honor of working at a nursing home in Guatemala where I helped a PT student volunteering with me carry out a physical therapy routine that helped a woman stand for the first time in 10 years. It was an absolutely incredible moment. So yes: voluntourism can be a scam and can serve as a photo op for privileged young adults. But there are also legit opportunities out there, you just need to do your research. :)
You can also volunteer in your own community. Most people aren't even aware of even 1% of the volunteer positions out there that woukd see these places close if they can't get volunteers. I volunteer at my local Council on Aging, which is desperate for help even though I live in a pretty "uppity" town (my end of town is much more Middle class, but then there's the Uber wealthy end of town). We don't need money, we need bodies. I actually work in the fun part, in the thrift shop. We take donated items, price them, and we have a decent size thrift shop. I put items out and organize the store. I've been working there one day a week for the last 12-13 yrs now. I absolutely love it. The money we bring in, which is 100% of the profit, goes directly to the Friends of the Elderly board where they vote on where to put the money. A couple yrs ago, we bought the Council new vans WITH AC, plus we built a garage for the vans and built a garage for the maintenance guys then we built a shed for the medical equipment that is also donated, but is lent out and not sold. They also make donations to other struggling charities in the community like the local Veterans House. It's awesome, there's a whole crew that goes into running something like that... 3 to price & take in donations, 1-2 people that can run the front desk where they cash people out & bag items, plus another 2-3 people to put stuff out & organize the store, especially where we have different color tags half off each week & unsold items that didn't sell for half off, gets marked down to $1 or gets donated to another charity. We've had to close 2 days out of the 5 we used to be open because of the lack of committed volunteers. It still surprises me as to how many people in the community that still don't even know we're there, let alone looking for volunteers. It's such a shame. And weekends are never even brought up anymore bc we can't find volunteers even willing to come in one Saturday a month! It's sad that we have such a GREAT little thing there, but people just won't make the time to volunteer. I've kept my one day a week through job changes, through career changes, and now also school, AND being a single mom. No matter what changes I go through, I keep my commitment to them bc I said I would. I treat it like any other job, when I changed jobs I just said I can't work this day because I have another commitment I can't change. No one has ever had an issue. When I had to go back to school I don't schedule clesses during that time. It's not hard, it's just people want either glam or recognition and you don't get that here... Well, not from the general public, lol, the center & people there are amazing and hold lunches in very nice country clubs or restaurants to show their appreciation, plus a Christmas party with a very generous gift every yr. I wish more people would mention the local to you need for volunteers right in your own community!
When I worked overseas, there was a serious divide in the expat community between the ones actually working overseas and the spiritual journey types. I spent years getting a degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in ESL education before deciding to become an elementary school English teacher in Asia. I spent years of late nights studying to be qualified, and I would regularly run into these 18/19-year-olds who treated the education of children in need as little more than a fun vacation. Some of these kids' families spent a lot of money they didn't have for their kid to learn a foreign language in hopes of improving their future, and the trust fund brats that signed a two-month contract for a summer camp couldn't show up sober half the time. One was overlooked, though, Sexpats. The ones that usually go to impoverished areas where they know they have more money than the locals and use it along with lies to sleep around then ditch for another community as soon as any consequences start to show.
yep, and these people will also be quick to virtuesignal all over but will f a 12 yo haitian girl and then get out of there. Especially common with the UN

My Latin teacher at school joked how she was a hippie at university, a hippie wearing clothes imported by France (in like the 60's). They're truly everywhere.
I've known plenty of women who definitely did not have the money for plastic surgery and still managed to stay in shape after having a kid. I'm sure part of that is genetics but come on, it's not impossible or even rare.
It’s the clout chasing and the spirituality and ‘finding yourself’ shit that really pisses me off. And so many of them cry about climate change, when they’re the ones flying around in private jets to Africa and India. Btw anyone reading this, don’t let these people put you off actually going outside and enjoying your life, just don’t do it the way they do, it’s important to balance work with free time
A real "hippie" is much like a real "good" person. They live their ideals and may be categorized that way by other people but it's not a label they give themselves nor do they even care about it. Sadly too many folks are worried about how others see them.
acting like if there a hippie theyre a shitty person is literally just putting yourself in the category youre trying to label them as... stereotyping is pretty cringy and daft my guy, just because you dated some girl for a few days doesnt mean theyre all like that lmfao "i met a black person once and they robbed me so they all must rob everyone" same logic buddy
the story of the kids getting their shit undone and fixed by the other people at night is what it was like when i moved from a farm and started working with people from the city lol.
I especially love those ones that endlessly travel and think they're cultured while looking down on people who don't have the means or time to go anywhere.
The term trustafarian has been around since the 90s. They just didn't have social media to broadcast it. You'd just meet them at raves or parties festivals etc.
I was gonna say it but didn't wanna be the "ackshually" guy. But absolutely since at least '02 '03 in my dead and phish tour days we had them everywhere.
Im sure it existed as far back as the 2000s, but it really became super trendy in the 2010s when the festival scene took off and all the rich kids came in trying to lecture and guilt trip everyone with their pseudo-woke culture bullshit. They basically pissed everyone off so much that the fest scene just flat out died around 2016/17 because people didnt want to be around them anymore. They also caused fest price inflation that was unseen in the history of festivals and has now made it impossible for festivals to succeed. When I first saw trustafarians around 2009, they treated me like an outside at 'their'festival. I thought something was wrong with me because I actually believed they were real people at first. Once I learned the truth, it made more sense why they wanted nothing to do with a poor person like me lmao
@@chaletamale5726 it definitely has evolved from the looks of it used to just be rich kids in polo shirts digging wells in Africa or backpacking around South America on their gap yaaahs that never ended.
The hippies hunter made fun of, can you guess what their parents work on for a living? The military industrial complex, without fail they work for Northrop Grumman.
So, they’re all largely just adults that are stuck in their teenage phase of “I hate my parents” where they need to prove to everyone that they are _totally_ not like them by being extremely dependent on their income and being similarly disconnected from the rest of the world in terms of reality just like mom and dad. Shocker.
Side note Voluntourism also affects locals in different ways. I live in South Africa and what I really wanted to do after finishing high school was go volunteer at a wildlife animal rescue/reserve for a few weeks or a month or two, but I knew I wouldnt want to commit to it for the rest of my life. I expected to pay a fee to cover living expenses, but I very quickly realized that all the temporary programs are just for Voluntourism and the prices are so ludicrous only people from overseas (stronger currency) and local rich people could afford it. That royally pissed me off as it essentially robbed me of a potential experience I could have had.
I don’t know why white people are scared to be themselves,y’all can hate the bad things that your ancestors did but hating yourself as being cause of the race you are is VERY sad and STUPID.
thing is, if you ask the same question in most European countries, people will just say one place (usually where they live). I truly believe this is an American thing due to lack of history and the way culture works over there
You were kinda joking but actually ended up being 100% accurate. When you said ppl take the drug to get the demons out, when in fact it's they key that lets them all in. Truth.
"You "smoke" ayahuasca to get the demons out of your head but really is just the fxcking key that unlocks the door for the to come in" dude you nail that one right on the head
DMT. Smoked 1 toke better aye a whatsca.lolgross shaman touch u and u puke . And puke and puke. DMT 15 min your back.

Only to find out your liver and kidneys just been sold to Chinese billionaires. That needed it for there dragon or ?
I dated a woman that did this, turns out when i met her (2 years after the ayauasca) she was a depressed, suicidal,bisexual weed smoking addict, alcoholic that was "polyamorous"...at 25. Best of luck to her but my god. She was normal on tinder at the time i met here or so i thought...not after a week of spending time with her. Crazy is a light word.

3:18 I actually met someone like this and he fell in love with a tribeswoman and stayed there. His parents cut him off financially and shunned him from the family. He said that it was the best decision he ever made.
Fun Fact: This is also known as the Kazinski life, because the unabomber lived like this. He hid off in the woods dependent on money from first his parents and later his brother, which he conveniently left out of his manifesto.
As I get older I’ve noticed that traveling is something that people feel forced into or feel guilty about if they don’t have a recent trip to talk about. Social media is one of the main sources of pressure for people to take fancy trips. Most people around the world never leave their small section of their city. Yet in America people say things like “spend your money on travel, it will enlighten you and make you a better person. Memories are priceless” etc. never mind that it’s ridiculously expensive, and takes a crazy amount of good fortune to afford a lifestyle of travel and leisure. You have to have all of your needs met, bills paid, you have to be in good health and not caring for someone who’s health is failing, either not have kids or be able to afford to bring them, and you have to have enough salaried vacation time to actually be absent for a week or weeks at a time. Sure if that’s your PASSION and you want to save your extra money to see a place you’ve always dreamed of, that’s great! But in 2024 the days of everyone being willing and able to just drop thousands to get on a plane and go look at stuff is not realistic. It’s a rich persons hobby. And if you ever go broke you can’t sell your memories.
Honestly thanks for this comment. I feel a little weird that I haven't been even out of state. I live in a small crappy town, but... I have a job and I am saving, I have a stable future economy for myself because I don't follow this ideology. I do WANT to go to another country, but... I can't afford that! And I'm not going to pay with credit either!
Oh my gosh this is exactly how I feel. I'm working abroad right now and all the other people my age in the program somehow find the time and energy to travel to 11 different countries in one month. One of them said he ran out of money and was shocked to hear that I hadn't, because I explore around my own residence and only take big trips if it's something that genuinely interests me. The pressure to "experience everything" and be "cultured" is real.
Bro I feel this so hard. It costs almost $700-$1,000 to book around trip unless you want to go through connection limbo for two days. When you get there, its not fun. Your just spending money on places that have become so bogged down by tourism. Its just super expensive and stressful. I find myself enjoying vacations less and less.
I.. was completely unaware that I had such a murderous rage buried within me. Then, I heard that Dubai port-a-potty describe a sh1tty painting as "That is so ayahuasca!" and I learned something about myself that I thought I was impossible.

My school literally has a club where they go to Kenya to help poor communities, if the thousands of dollars EACH student payed for the trip was donated it would've been more helpful than them moving dirt and taking pictures of themselves with little kids to make them look better on social media and their college applications. The word voluntourism just made my day because this stuff has been bothering me for so long lmao.
Donate to who? The organizations that fund the work done by volunteers? At what point do some of y’all just grow up?
How do you ensure the money is properly managed by whoever is receiving it. Typically stuff like that ends up finding abusive terrorists or gangs who control opressed people in these regions
@@ericrowe5232 The problem with charity ending up in the wrong hands isn't somehow "solved" by American school groups and church groups going over there to volunteer themselves. If anything those groups are probably more likely to be taken advantage of by bad actors than a savvy local organization would be.
As a indigenous person I love that everyone who claims to have "native ancestry" says they have a grandfather that was a Cherokee chief or a grandmother who was a Cherokee princess, like how come none of you had a relative that was just a random indigenous person lol
Not one of these kinds of folks but I can say I recall my family trying to look into the family tree for decades and claiming we had Cherokee ancestry ( I'm from the Deep South in the USA, supposedly mainly Irish, Scottish, French and German descent.. from both sides of the family ). I think at least in the South a lot of claims are that we have some Native American but usually hear of Cherokee links in these parts.
One of my ancestors was the famous William "spirit" knifeman

Most hippies are very much not wealthy. Many, but still the minority.
Yea this is entirely not true. Thousands of kids skipped work and school for years while hitch hiking with dimes in their pockets. Many of them if not most were middle class or lower children of the ww2 generation.
No, some of them come from poverty, they simply fund their life with more traditional methods like repair/reuse, street performance, stealing, selling art etc.
I knew a bunch of kids in high school that were like this. I was one of the few poor kids that lived on the outskirts of a rich neighborhood, so I went to the local high school. The school was like something you'd see on TV. The cafeteria had its own sub line and pizza spot, every day, on top of the regular hot lunch. There was even coolers filled with different soft drinks and teas and whatnot. One of the girls from this wannabe hippie group, invited me to a party. I brought a sick bong, took my eyes off of it, and one of those rich a-holes stole it off the table. They are super stingy though, rude, and unwelcoming. They were nothing like the real hippies. They would use people if they saw something that they liked or wanted. They would dress the part and paint their rooms all psychedelic, with mushrooms and fairies and shit, but were the worst group of kids I ever met. They were so stuck up and exclusionary. I saw one of the girls crying in the bathroom, ask her if she was okay, and she basically told me to mind my business. Same girl liked my drawings and asked me to draw some psychedelic pics on her cloth bag. Then she acted like she didn't know me. Oh, and I've met the rich Buddhists too. Also, the meanest, most unwelcoming narcissists you've ever met.
My father was born in the late 40s, after he got out of the military he became close to the idea of becoming a hippie, and honestly he told me the exact same thing about many people he met during his time in that lifestyle, ultimately why he left, said a large majority of them were just garbage human beings.
those real hippies were the exact same trash.
think, why could they afford to not have damned day jobs?
@istoppedcaring6209 I wasn't around back then, so I don't know from experience. From videos from back then and first hand accounts, I heard that the hippies from the 60s were extremely nice, welcoming, and generous. Complete strangers were climbing into each other's apartment windows and just hanging out with each other. They would do anything for each other, just out of love. That's how much of the youth got around, through hitch hiking ..and the driver was happy to do it.
@istoppedcaring6209 Don't get me wrong, I don't support the hippie movement, though. I think the movement was used to start the decay in American family values.

I do landscaping for a living and we maintain several multi-million dollar estates near a ski resort (summer acitivty) area, it is a very upscale area and the propery value is probably unbelievably high. MOST of the yards we do, nobody is there.. ever. The monstrous 10-20 bedroom houses just sit there, in immaculate condition, with nobody living inside. I'd say over 90% of the properties we landscape are empty homes that are owned by millionaires but never actually used/lived in. They also pay my boss $7,500 a summer for landscaping service, which is just mowing trimming and trash/stick removal, some light mulching. They pay 10k a summer to have a beautiful yard attached to their 12M home they never even visit.
Inequality is 100% absolutely sickeningly out of Control.
Also side Story: my couson went on a volunteer trip with his highschool years ago to Africa for a week to help a village that had recently had some form of natural disaster. The school paid for him and 1 other student to go and they were 2 of 100s that signed up. In their group he said there was a group of wealthy kids from Washington, who also had volunteered to help but paid their own way on the trip. Apparently when the instructor got them to an area near the African village and handed everyone gloves and trashbags to help clean up garbage, the rich kids REFUSED and even sat on the ground in a mini protest of having to "work" for the volunteer group.. my cousin said the worst part was that the instructor gave in, let the rich kids do something else that wasn't physical work, and they badically just had a weeks long vacation in Africa. And he said they complained about their accommodations the entire time they were there. This whole video is true. This is absolutely ehat reality has become. The rich think they are truly more than Human. 🤢
Sorry for the essay 😅
I truly believe that there should be a legal limit set as to how much money an individual can have at any one time. It wouldn't be a flat number necessarily, but at least be estimated by the current inflation in that area. I'm honestly so sick and tired of the same old excuses that I keep hearing defending people hoarding wealth like this. Like "Why even try if I can't become rich" or "If you just try hard enough it could be you some day". Firstly the cap could allow for millionares; which I believe is still more than enough money for anyone to live off of, just not bilionares, and if that still isn't good enough, well, to bad. Secondly, no. While it may technically be possible for someone to become rich through hard work and effort it statistically doesn't happen almost ever and any competition against an extremely wealthy company as an individual or small startup will end in certain death for your company in certain industries. I'm not saying all rich people are bad or that even most of them are, just that the very existence of them and the amount of wealth they carry is what is causing the problem here. Some people need to stop pretending that this is a lazy people vs successful people problem and need to understand that these rich people did not put in equal "work" into earning every dollar they have compared to what the rest of us put in to make that dollar. I'm not saying these people did not put in effort to become rich and agree that working smart not hard should take you further than just working hard, but there needs to be a limit as to how far that takes you.
@@seanmoreno5694 The issue with that analysis is that those people get their money from exchange of good or services like anyone else. If it’s nepotism it’s a different story, but the wealth is accumulated usually from a business that becomes very successful due to regular people buying that good or service. Which makes it ultimately the buyer’s fault for giving them their money. It’s a lot like how people complain about Amazon and keep buying from them, how can Amazon not be rich if people keep giving them loads of money to get their products with one day shipping? It’s a really good business model, and people enjoy it. They aren’t going to think about the fact that Amazon will predatorily host a small business, and when that business’s product becomes popular and starts making money, they will steal the idea and cheaply outsource it to factories in Asia. It’s a really corrupt thing to do, but that simply doesn’t outweigh the convenience of their service. I have not bought and will never buy products from Amazon for the reason I mentioned above.
@@seanmoreno5694 I concur with your overall philosophy. The problem that I have, is that the US government is highly untrustworthy by nature. This is the only thing keeping me from giving them even more legal capabilities. If this were say, Sweden or something; I would have no hangups about giving the government more power to control the rich.
I'm no anti-American. But this government has so many outright atrocities under it's belt, I feel like its almost beyond trust.

I worked with one of these people once. His Dad had died when he was young and he was left with a large trust fund. At age 16 his mother found out he had smoked marijuana so she immediately sent him to military school. In military school he started using the hard drugs that the rich kids were using. After military school he went to an expensive "hippy college". He got a bachelors degree in "adventure travel". I laughed and asked him what he planned to do with that degree and he said "nothing". He thought he was going to get a huge sum of money from the trust fund when he turned 21. It turns out his mother spent all his trust fund on his college degree and her living expenses. He died of a drug overdose a few years later.

so, I was homeless but also had a (what i guess we call trustifarian now) friend in my hometown. Their dad worked for Apple in a corporate position, they lived in a huge house, pretty much a farmhouse, but without the farm and they were definitely more folk/gutter an-com punk, rather than holistic crystal healer/hippie, however, had good acid either way. So when I was homeless, they just joined me. Honestly, I don't know how I would have survived without them. They kept me fed and taught me some traveling kid skills to survive the streets. They went on to travel across the country, diving dumpsters to feed people in the Vegas tunnels and Slab City. However, I should say, their parent's support was kinda to a minimal, they were mostly independent, but was given the old family van to travel. But they definitely didn't like their free spirited nature, as they were a strictly conservative Christian household. They eventually passed away due to a drug overdose in their parents' home years after all these adventures. They were my best friend and I miss them everyday. Sorry to put a damper on that. Just wanted to respect one of the good ones. However, there was another, not as rich of a family, but definitely glorified being homeless and just being a scumbag. Now, he was way more holistic healing/ hippie type. Had dreads, would beg for money when he had hundreds and parents that would wire him if it came down to it, shamed me for declining to join, while being homeless with no choice. He went on to be a serial SA offender. So yeah, just a horrible scumbag.

Trustafarian has been a term in underground dance music circles for years now. We also call them wooks.
Wooks are poor as shit for real though, borrowing everything and traveling in packs

As a person that actually grew in the Amazon region, it's actually disgusting this rich gringos coming here and use Ayahuasca to get high, this actually cultural, part of religious practices of many tribes, and also very dangerous, many people die due to bad practices when drinking Ayahuasca irresponsibly
as a person from a third world country, this is true, sometimes they disrespect our culture, expect us to change our ways just because they are around (like speaking their language), waste our resources and complain about the poor conditions. but i also see this a lot with rich people in general "visiting" poor areas and treating it like a show. im from a rich family and have seen good friends of mine impressed that poor people "are just like us" its really disgusting

I went on student exchange into an aristocratic French family. Their son tried so hard to be a relaxed surfer/hippieguy. Funniest moment was when he was skateboarding casually around a 5* ski resort in the Alps during Summer blasting Bob Marley and wearing a Jamaican beanie. Wasn't going anywhere. Just wanted to people to see how chill he was. Note: he was definitely *not* chill.
ahahahah
Trustafarian as slang is more than 30+ years old - I remember that used to describe festival kids in 1994
I was gonna say this! Its not a new term at all
I'm 45, I've been saying it since I was a teenager. Glad somebody brought this up.
Same with Voluntourism. It’s an old term at this point. There’s a trend of Gen Z posting really old jokes unironically.

The main reason why these people don’t help locally is because sending a $100 annual donation to your local food bank is much less flashy than Instagram photos. It proves it really just about the photos about the reputation and not about actually helping people. I think you’re right on the money about that.
I was friends with one 25 years ago in college. He was our dorms weed dealer. He never set out to be a drug dealer he just always had weed and kinda became the dealer for the building. Dude was from Los Gatos California (silicon valley). We'd get high and make him tell us rich kid stories. He told us how Steve Woznick (yeah he actually lived in the same neighborhood as the Woz) would throw parties and give out super expensive apple products as prizes to guests. Once a kid he knew won an iBook and you'll never guess what that little shit did. The kid went up to Steve Fucking Wozniak and asked him if he can give him a better one with more ram instead! The dude just won a laptop that when adjusted for inflation cost in the neighborhood of 3 grand and he GAVE IT BACK because he wanted something better! And Steve didn't even bat an eye, he just took it and said "sure" and apologized!
That's the only story that stuck out since it was so long ago and I was always high when he told the stories. He did say though how at his high school it wasn't uncommon for girls to get rhinoplasty and boob jobs for their 16th birthday.
Anyways the dude presented himself as a total hippie and would complain about spoiled rich kids and how he and his parents weren't rich. Then one day his parents come to visit him and that weekend decided they love the town and decided to buy a million dollar home in the area all on a whim. The only thing my buddy cared about was that he'd have to deal with them more often. Didn't even occur to him that just deciding to buy a house, much less a house costing millions of dollars, isn't something "not rich" people can do. I grew up in a house that could have been in the movie Gummo, that fucker should have been giving me weed for free.
So your the monster in the closet!
As someone who went to Los Gatos High somewhat recently, it was a miserable place and a solid 60% of the kids there were exactly like that mf. Kids who would judge you by how much money you have, would go on crazy vacations renting out huge airBnBs with their friends unsupervised, and throw mansion parties, but then complain about how broke they were or insist they weren't spoiled because the Mercedes they got for their 16th birthday was used instead of new. At the time my parents were both struggling to make ends meet for the first time since I was born so the way these assholes behaved was infuriating. Los Gatos is 100% one of the places this trustafarian problem was created because everyone's parents are so focused on their jobs and rich lifestyle they don't take the time to raise their kids and just throw money at them instead.
@@BenadryIIionaire Yeah at first I didn't believe him 100% because of how crazy it sounded. A part of me wondered if he was making stuff up just to fit in. But when his parents bought the house I realized it was all real. At some point I noticed that rich friends acted a little ashamed after I realized that they were loaded. It was wild because they sorta acted the same way that a poor person would act if news got out that they were dirt poor.

Im glad you addressed this dude, living in a third world country i know what REAL poverty is, and it is not something to be romanticized, it is terrible living in a condition in which you have to pray to god to have enough money to buy food next month, to pay the rent, to buy new clothes and to at least buy a gift for yourself at least one time in 5 or 10 years, cause hardly there is money enough for a poor people to have this privilege. It's frustrating and infuriating sometimes to see middle class/rich people impersonating a poor person, just because they want to feel more "cool" and like they're from the "streets", and that isn't a thing restricted to the US or Europe only, here in brazil there are the "special" snowflakes lucky enough to born super rich, and still act like they live in the middle of a extremely poor neighborhood, and brag about this on social media also. It's fucking ridiculous.

Rich people pretending to be with "nature" or dress "poor" has always been a trend in the 2000s because honestly they got nothing better to do, they're bored.

Lol Fr my ex had parents who actually were blue-collar,
BUT
her dad busted his ass and ended up as the head maintenance man at a literal fucking mansion with like suits of armor and a movie theater and an elevator in Snowmass, CO.
He made fantastic money, and they had multiple vehicles (like 3 different Jeeps, a Tahoe, little Toyota, and a new-ish [at the time] Ford F-150 AND her dad had a motorcycle. Their house was HUGE compared to the houses I’ve lived in.
& her mom didn’t “have” to work, but she did, cause she wanted to make herself useful. In addition to cooking delicious meals and cleaning.
Her mom was from East L.A., her dad was a big bearded scary biker-ish white boy from central California.
She was born & raised in Vegas, but her parents moved her and her sister to Colorado when she was like 12-ish.
her sister went to a Ross Montessori elementary school, and she had like nice cameras cause she was a “photographer” but she did the whole “dreadlocks with straight-textured reddish-brown hair” and “half-sun/half-moon tattoo” and “I’m a free spirit, that’s why I bang a lot and I have to follow my
Heart” woo-woo hippy bullshit.
Well, she went to [branch of the military] and that was basically the end. Because I had a juvenile record that kept me from being able to enlist for atleast 7 years before I could even apply to get a waiver. And we broke up. At the time I was a stupid kid, and I didn’t realize how corny she was. (And hey, I was probably corny, too 🤷♂️) but I find the hippy stuff so annoying. Unless it comes off as, like, genuine.
She always acted as though she could relate to me.
I grew up in the ghetto. With an abusive stepfather, a drug-addicted mother who was on workman’s comp and welfare for much of mine and my sister’s childhood, we were left home alone for usually 12 hours at a time because my mom would work 7am-7pm for a month, then 7pm-7am for a month. Sometimes for dinner all we had was fried ground beef with ketchup. And ramen noodles. We had gunshots going off in the alleys at night, and meth/crackheads breaking into our garage every other night. Syringes and used c0nd0ms in the gutter. One of my best friends di3d in a police chase when I was like 14. I could go on and on.
I’m not saying she had the “easiest” life. But it was just like, “we did NOT grow up the same… you have NO IDEA”…..
She became a “Buddhist” lol.
Yeah, chick… you’re a Buddhist. With your fancy expensive camera and $400 Dre Beats headphones, and your 20mm cannon rounds.

There's 2 types of van life. Rich people larping and poor people that have no where else.
If you can afford a van you are rich enough to get a atleast a studio apartment in Kansas or something
I genuinely looked into vanlifing when it was all trendy, until i found out it was basically the same cost as a house
I live in a camper... It only sucks when the roof leaks
Van life when you're rich: travel everywhere, never sleep in the same place twice
Van life when you're poor: 12mpg with a 30gal tank = lmao you thought you were going somewhere this week
Then the rich people park their vans illegally and parking lots start becoming strict so the real poor people have no where to go.
Fun fact: a lot of rich women with money actually induce pregnancy early to minimize stretch marks. It's probably really unhealthy to do this but like most top models do this
Yeah, my impression is that many (wealthy) models just choose to give birth early because their body can bounce back better and get back to work (modeling), especially if they have to wear skimpy clothing regularly
Works too, look at Papa drooling over her fake body
East African countries did try to ban second hand clothing so as to boost our own textile industries but only Rwanda implemented it and was excluded from AGOA by the US as punishment.

@@phik I was really hoping it had. Most of those clothes just end up in landfills here
yep, people love to blame either colonialism on one side or corruption, genetics, culture,... on the other
but in truth all of that pales in comparisson with the simple truth that they are not allowed to govern their own trade policy and absolutely can't impose tarrifs that would allow them to build up their own industries. All the other stuff plays a role in it but litterally every industrialised country had to do just that including the US

Lol when I was 17 I was doing the international baccalaureate and you need to do 180 hours of CAS (creativity, action and service). My school knew that none of us would be able to complete 60 hours of community service on our own so we spent like 10 or 20 hours "fundraising" (asking parents to give us money) and then traveled to Malaysia to "build houses for the poor". Fun fact: none of us knew jack shit about building houses. We had a local Malay mason named Mickley who loved Spider-Man who attempted to teach us how to lay bricks (umm, maybe 1 or 2 kids out of our 20+ class actually figured out how to build a semi-straight wall by the end of the trip). Everything that we did had to be redone by pros after we left lmao. But I keenely remember the feeling of mixing cement with a shovle in 80% humidity under the tropical 30 degree sun and thinking to myself "I get why these people are poor, I wouldn't want to build a house for myself given how fucking hard it is under these conditions" lmao. Also as a practical joke I think one of the local Malay coordinators had some of the more pretentious and annoying boys and girls from the class go step in a literal raw sewage canal and "excavate it" so that the shit could flow from a Point A to point B without our teacher's knowledge. When our teachers found out about how unsanitary it was they freaked out cos they were afraid one of the kids might contract some horrible tropical disease and die. I was just peeing myself laughing at the time thinking of the "pretty girls" being told to literally stand in a river of shit and try to dig it as some kind of a cruel joke from this Malay guy that was like "fuck these kids" xD.

It is often done with good intentions. Often encouraged by rich parents who do not wish their kids to be "spoiled" and wish to them to develop some empathy. Same is the case with donations, they often occur because they make rich people feel better about themselves and experience gratefulness from the receivers. It actually only shows they are human like everyone else, and sometimes more naive and less cynical than the "street-smart" folks who are milking them.
My sister was in an orphanage in Africa and yes, there was a horrible culture of child trafficking and other horrible crimes as parents needed money to survive and the orphanages who were making a lot of it from trafficking and actual adoptions were able to provide it. They would basically buy children and then sell them or parade them to rich westerners. Needless to say, after my sister was adopted, my dad told the president of the orphanage that if they see each other again that the president guy will not be making it out alive. People like trustafarians are often ignorant to the reality of these situations and think by spreading their "wisdom" they are helping those around them and that throwing money at the problem will fix it. Unfortunately, so much of this money just funnels to the corrupt politicians and criminals leading these communities, causing there to be no progress in the development of these areas.
reminds me of the kid i knew in college with a seemingly endless supply of weed who thrifted at places that charged $30 for a shirt while complaining about being broke. mf had a pool in the backyard of his new york suburban mcmansion and played the oppression olympics so fuckin hard

No shortage of those kids where I was from growing up. Especially when the 2000''s hits and everybody was "gangster" and "street". Their street being a three story house in a gated community.
Him being "broke" (nevermind the money his family clearly had) was his own fault.
I knew somebody who would happily spend money everyday going out to eat, on alcohol, going to the club, getting her hair and nails done, buying new clothes, etc. She once told me that she could easily spend $200+ per DAY... She was broke only in the sense that she spent paycheck to paycheck.
The voluntourism strikes a chord with me. I preparing an application for medical school and they require so many “service” hours logged with underserved communities. There are trips sponsored by universities or other entities that take you to the Dominican Republic where we hand out toilet paper and take pictures. We don’t go to Haiti because it has more dangerous crime and worse infrastructure. I was in the Army before going back to school, it’s like regressing back into childhood. You’re chaperoned, security is provided. It’s like a conveyor belt where you get your packaged experience.

Voluntourism needs to be talked about more! I wanted to take a gap year where I would take two trips abroad where I could explore other cultures and give my time to a good cause. But not being wealthy, I would work serving tables at home between trips to save up and pay for my travels. I found a legitimate organization called Volunteer HQ that connects volunteers abroad with LOCAL (key word there) volunteer groups, supplying them with a labor force. This means you are actually helping a group that needs it, not, for example, paying $10k to “save the elephants” while actually just riding and petting them, which isn’t helpful.
The organization was very affordable and placed emphasis on teaching you about the local culture. I couldn’t recommend it more! I had the honor of working at a nursing home in Guatemala where I helped a PT student volunteering with me carry out a physical therapy routine that helped a woman stand for the first time in 10 years. It was an absolutely incredible moment.
So yes: voluntourism can be a scam and can serve as a photo op for privileged young adults. But there are also legit opportunities out there, you just need to do your research. :)
I appreciate your story thank you.
You can also volunteer in your own community. Most people aren't even aware of even 1% of the volunteer positions out there that woukd see these places close if they can't get volunteers. I volunteer at my local Council on Aging, which is desperate for help even though I live in a pretty "uppity" town (my end of town is much more Middle class, but then there's the Uber wealthy end of town). We don't need money, we need bodies.
I actually work in the fun part, in the thrift shop. We take donated items, price them, and we have a decent size thrift shop. I put items out and organize the store. I've been working there one day a week for the last 12-13 yrs now. I absolutely love it. The money we bring in, which is 100% of the profit, goes directly to the Friends of the Elderly board where they vote on where to put the money. A couple yrs ago, we bought the Council new vans WITH AC, plus we built a garage for the vans and built a garage for the maintenance guys then we built a shed for the medical equipment that is also donated, but is lent out and not sold. They also make donations to other struggling charities in the community like the local Veterans House. It's awesome, there's a whole crew that goes into running something like that... 3 to price & take in donations, 1-2 people that can run the front desk where they cash people out & bag items, plus another 2-3 people to put stuff out & organize the store, especially where we have different color tags half off each week & unsold items that didn't sell for half off, gets marked down to $1 or gets donated to another charity.
We've had to close 2 days out of the 5 we used to be open because of the lack of committed volunteers. It still surprises me as to how many people in the community that still don't even know we're there, let alone looking for volunteers. It's such a shame. And weekends are never even brought up anymore bc we can't find volunteers even willing to come in one Saturday a month! It's sad that we have such a GREAT little thing there, but people just won't make the time to volunteer. I've kept my one day a week through job changes, through career changes, and now also school, AND being a single mom. No matter what changes I go through, I keep my commitment to them bc I said I would. I treat it like any other job, when I changed jobs I just said I can't work this day because I have another commitment I can't change. No one has ever had an issue. When I had to go back to school I don't schedule clesses during that time. It's not hard, it's just people want either glam or recognition and you don't get that here... Well, not from the general public, lol, the center & people there are amazing and hold lunches in very nice country clubs or restaurants to show their appreciation, plus a Christmas party with a very generous gift every yr. I wish more people would mention the local to you need for volunteers right in your own community!
I bet you missed your photo op with the kids while you were typing all this.
Just googled it, and Daniel Radcliffe started this program. You learn something new and cool every day.
Voluntourism is the most privileged term I've ever heard.
When I worked overseas, there was a serious divide in the expat community between the ones actually working overseas and the spiritual journey types. I spent years getting a degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in ESL education before deciding to become an elementary school English teacher in Asia. I spent years of late nights studying to be qualified, and I would regularly run into these 18/19-year-olds who treated the education of children in need as little more than a fun vacation. Some of these kids' families spent a lot of money they didn't have for their kid to learn a foreign language in hopes of improving their future, and the trust fund brats that signed a two-month contract for a summer camp couldn't show up sober half the time. One was overlooked, though, Sexpats. The ones that usually go to impoverished areas where they know they have more money than the locals and use it along with lies to sleep around then ditch for another community as soon as any consequences start to show.
yep, and these people will also be quick to virtuesignal all over but will f a 12 yo haitian girl and then get out of there. Especially common with the UN
so they are passport bros?
@@Shoegazebasedgenre0. passport bros are dudes that look for a wife outside of the west.
not the guys looking to take advantage of and ruin girls in the third world by flashing a dreamlife in front of them but then just ditching.
My Latin teacher at school joked how she was a hippie at university, a hippie wearing clothes imported by France (in like the 60's). They're truly everywhere.
Being a hippy back then (as it does now) almost always meant coming from a place of middle to upper middle class comfort
France have nothing to do with Hippie lifestyle kid. by any means.
She kept her body cuz she has money to get the whole mommy makeover surgery, tummy tuck, lipo, and breast augmentation lol
Having a pregnancy at only 18 would help a great deal with bouncing back too
@@madinp1177 that too
I've known plenty of women who definitely did not have the money for plastic surgery and still managed to stay in shape after having a kid. I'm sure part of that is genetics but come on, it's not impossible or even rare.

@@bushdid91195 ok, now take a cookie and go away
It’s the clout chasing and the spirituality and ‘finding yourself’ shit that really pisses me off. And so many of them cry about climate change, when they’re the ones flying around in private jets to Africa and India.
Btw anyone reading this, don’t let these people put you off actually going outside and enjoying your life, just don’t do it the way they do, it’s important to balance work with free time
I know man. Other people living their own lives in the way they see fit really angers me as well.
@@XxBronsonxX this isn’t just them living their lives, it’s unethical behaviour. Why are you even defending these people?
@@50upssunethical means it's a lifestyle you disagree with but isn't actually harming you or others. What's the problem?
@@50upsscharity is super unethical.
@@50upssI can't stand the idea of people enjoying their lives or helping to improve the lives of others.
I dated a girl like this, she acted like this down to earth person but turned out to just be very selfish. Don’t recommend dating a hippie
A real "hippie" is much like a real "good" person. They live their ideals and may be categorized that way by other people but it's not a label they give themselves nor do they even care about it. Sadly too many folks are worried about how others see them.
acting like if there a hippie theyre a shitty person is literally just putting yourself in the category youre trying to label them as... stereotyping is pretty cringy and daft my guy, just because you dated some girl for a few days doesnt mean theyre all like that lmfao "i met a black person once and they robbed me so they all must rob everyone" same logic buddy
hippies are cool. these people aren’t hippies
Me, too. I will never date another hippie.
Ah yes because thats obviously telling of anyone whos a hippie
the story of the kids getting their shit undone and fixed by the other people at night is what it was like when i moved from a farm and started working with people from the city lol.
I especially love those ones that endlessly travel and think they're cultured while looking down on people who don't have the means or time to go anywhere.
I love it when people find their heads in rural dumpsters, too.
Not enough heads being found in my opinion @@phantomspaceman
So plain regular democrats.
@@theJackman121 Rookie numbers etc.
The term trustafarian has been around since the 90s. They just didn't have social media to broadcast it. You'd just meet them at raves or parties festivals etc.
I was gonna say, I first heard that term in '02.
I was gonna say it but didn't wanna be the "ackshually" guy. But absolutely since at least '02 '03 in my dead and phish tour days we had them everywhere.
Im sure it existed as far back as the 2000s, but it really became super trendy in the 2010s when the festival scene took off and all the rich kids came in trying to lecture and guilt trip everyone with their pseudo-woke culture bullshit. They basically pissed everyone off so much that the fest scene just flat out died around 2016/17 because people didnt want to be around them anymore. They also caused fest price inflation that was unseen in the history of festivals and has now made it impossible for festivals to succeed. When I first saw trustafarians around 2009, they treated me like an outside at 'their'festival. I thought something was wrong with me because I actually believed they were real people at first. Once I learned the truth, it made more sense why they wanted nothing to do with a poor person like me lmao
@@chaletamale5726 it definitely has evolved from the looks of it used to just be rich kids in polo shirts digging wells in Africa or backpacking around South America on their gap yaaahs that never ended.
@@PeteGunnShow haha someone had to be. It's nice to see the gap year crews are back and worse than ever... 😂
The hippies hunter made fun of, can you guess what their parents work on for a living?
The military industrial complex, without fail they work for Northrop Grumman.
War babies.
Exhibit A: Megan McCain 🤢
Or Lockheed Martin
Just like Jim Morrison 😎
So, they’re all largely just adults that are stuck in their teenage phase of “I hate my parents” where they need to prove to everyone that they are _totally_ not like them by being extremely dependent on their income and being similarly disconnected from the rest of the world in terms of reality just like mom and dad. Shocker.

Side note
Voluntourism also affects locals in different ways. I live in South Africa and what I really wanted to do after finishing high school was go volunteer at a wildlife animal rescue/reserve for a few weeks or a month or two, but I knew I wouldnt want to commit to it for the rest of my life. I expected to pay a fee to cover living expenses, but I very quickly realized that all the temporary programs are just for Voluntourism and the prices are so ludicrous only people from overseas (stronger currency) and local rich people could afford it. That royally pissed me off as it essentially robbed me of a potential experience I could have had.
She says she’s native, Hispanic, and Irish, but I kind of feel like she’s burying the lede with the “Irish” at the end.
its crazy since people act like they gotta be scared to be white, but im proud to be part white , meowist.
I don’t know why white people are scared to be themselves,y’all can hate the bad things that your ancestors did but hating yourself as being cause of the race you are is VERY sad and STUPID.
thing is, if you ask the same question in most European countries, people will just say one place (usually where they live). I truly believe this is an American thing due to lack of history and the way culture works over there
Seriously bruh. Others people's ethnicity really angers me to the core.
@@JORDAN-CHRISTOPHERSPENCERimagine being proud to be white.
You were kinda joking but actually ended up being 100% accurate. When you said ppl take the drug to get the demons out, when in fact it's they key that lets them all in. Truth.
Psychedelics reveal the underlying programming that someone uses subconsciously through their day. It really only reveals what is already there.
@@shouygui4955 I do not agree. They open a spiritual portal to darkness that shouldn't be opened.

"You "smoke" ayahuasca to get the demons out of your head but really is just the fxcking key that unlocks the door for the to come in" dude you nail that one right on the head
DMT. Smoked 1 toke better aye a whatsca.lolgross shaman touch u and u puke . And puke and puke. DMT 15 min your back. Other way 12 hrs of shamans cramping fingers sticks and whatnot into your holes only to wake up in a bath tub packed w ice. Only to find out your liver and kidneys just been sold to Chinese billionaires. That needed it for there dragon or ?
I dated a woman that did this, turns out when i met her (2 years after the ayauasca) she was a depressed, suicidal,bisexual weed smoking addict, alcoholic that was "polyamorous"...at 25. Best of luck to her but my god. She was normal on tinder at the time i met here or so i thought...not after a week of spending time with her. Crazy is a light word.

I work at a dispo and have seen several trustafarians. Sometimes they won't bathe and wear the same clothes EVERYDAY. Sometimes they have hour long screaming matches with their family to send them money in the middle of the store. Love that
A coworker went to 'save turtles' in some South American country for a few months. She quickly got bored and left to continue her holiday elsewhere, after getting all the photos with small turtles all over social media.
I'm glad you called her a coworker and not a friend.

I work in a wildlife rehab and we've had a bunch of gringos leaving the week they arrive because they can't with actual widlife rehab, they just want pictures with the animals. Its honestly annoying as hell
3:18 I actually met someone like this and he fell in love with a tribeswoman and stayed there.
His parents cut him off financially and shunned him from the family.
He said that it was the best decision he ever made.
good for him honestly
Fun Fact: This is also known as the Kazinski life, because the unabomber lived like this. He hid off in the woods dependent on money from first his parents and later his brother, which he conveniently left out of his manifesto.
As I get older I’ve noticed that traveling is something that people feel forced into or feel guilty about if they don’t have a recent trip to talk about. Social media is one of the main sources of pressure for people to take fancy trips. Most people around the world never leave their small section of their city. Yet in America people say things like “spend your money on travel, it will enlighten you and make you a better person. Memories are priceless” etc. never mind that it’s ridiculously expensive, and takes a crazy amount of good fortune to afford a lifestyle of travel and leisure. You have to have all of your needs met, bills paid, you have to be in good health and not caring for someone who’s health is failing, either not have kids or be able to afford to bring them, and you have to have enough salaried vacation time to actually be absent for a week or weeks at a time. Sure if that’s your PASSION and you want to save your extra money to see a place you’ve always dreamed of, that’s great! But in 2024 the days of everyone being willing and able to just drop thousands to get on a plane and go look at stuff is not realistic. It’s a rich persons hobby. And if you ever go broke you can’t sell your memories.
You hit the nail right on the head so well said!
Honestly thanks for this comment. I feel a little weird that I haven't been even out of state. I live in a small crappy town, but... I have a job and I am saving, I have a stable future economy for myself because I don't follow this ideology. I do WANT to go to another country, but... I can't afford that! And I'm not going to pay with credit either!
Oh my gosh this is exactly how I feel. I'm working abroad right now and all the other people my age in the program somehow find the time and energy to travel to 11 different countries in one month. One of them said he ran out of money and was shocked to hear that I hadn't, because I explore around my own residence and only take big trips if it's something that genuinely interests me. The pressure to "experience everything" and be "cultured" is real.
Will throw out I love to travel and see the world. But that might be because I live in Ohio and want to escape this hell
Bro I feel this so hard. It costs almost $700-$1,000 to book around trip unless you want to go through connection limbo for two days. When you get there, its not fun. Your just spending money on places that have become so bogged down by tourism. Its just super expensive and stressful. I find myself enjoying vacations less and less.
I.. was completely unaware that I had such a murderous rage buried within me. Then, I heard that Dubai port-a-potty describe a sh1tty painting as "That is so ayahuasca!" and I learned something about myself that I thought I was impossible.
