if her 200K+ salary isn’t a good life? then what is?

A life that doesn't need the suggar rush.

and does what feels good to her in the moment

That's likely how she lives. The structure of society determines if she grew up longing for suggar or if she longed for a walk. A good society can make up for plenty of resources.

democrat or republican, and how she would be a ‘suffering from the oppression of the system’ in one case, and ‘deserving of her misery’ in the other

That's the usual team thinking. If we wouldn't leave the media to the elite we should have more nuanced conversations.

'nothing is anyone's fault, we are all victims of society/media elite. nobody can make their own choices'

Does that also apply to you? are you nothing more than a hapless victim? are the 'media elite' forcing you to write these comments on lemmy? or is that the 'structure of society' that forces you to type internet comments?

maybe you're just a bot though.

Most of what I write is society. I rarely have an original thought.

which is precisely why nobody can hold you accountable for anything you say or do, no doubt.

I don't pick majority opinions so society doesn't accept everything I say. Nevertheless, without the plurality of society I wouldn't have them.

now you're just contradicting yourself.
