*looks at Donald Trump*The question I responded to was asking how could anyone SUPPORT the statements written in that Facebook post. My response was about being swept up in ideology, or perhaps even victim mentality if you want to be very crude about it, which manifests in a hatred of every perceived institutional barrier placed in between you and your happiness or prosperity. It is nothing to do with not working hard enough or being lazy, it's about not having the required introspection to recognise when the responsibility for your life in western culture ultimately falls on the way you conduct yourself and the attitudes you take. You don't buy into those messages on whole unless you're first response for all the ills of the world is to turn to the faceless ghosts and tell them it's their fault! By definition, these people organising communities of common interest around these ideologies of anti-establishment and anti-western politics aren't lazy, since they are actively doing a whole lot more than you or I likely are. I'm not suggesting they are lazy at all - I'm saying their efforts are misplaced.
Not everyone would share your utopian view.
