    poor people exist, poor mothers die, this is not dystopian, it’s the human condition, it maybe unfair, and point to an unfair system, but it’s not dystopian, this isn’t new, and it isn’t imagines, it’s the way things always have been. words have meaning. and this doesn’t mean that.

        Dystopia doesn’t mean what you think it does. Hint: it is not existence of poor people. It doesn’t have anything to do with poor people at all.

      You’re the type of person this sub targets, buddy.

      I’m sure you think the teacher who had to have their colleagues donate sick time so they could be with their child with cancer, or the kid who sold candles to pay for his friend’s wheelchair is heartwarming too.

      The whole point is that people having to do stuff like that in the first place is bad, and is the result of a very sick society.
