This meme and variations of it pop up all the time, and sure, there's a 'haha' there. But it's doing some kind of whitewashing of REAL economic struggles of our generation, and I'm not sure how to feel about it.
It's more about laughing to ease the pain. For sure the cost of living has gotten way out of hand. But having a bit of fun about a shared bad time makes going through said bad time a bit easier.
