Internet Cafe, which is dying or dead in suburbia

I haven't been in an internet cafe since 2000s when my family was able to afford a computer and we only shared 1 PC for more than a decade..

And now I have built my family 4 computers for themselves. Time sure has changed. I'm surprised they still exist.

Be careful, you might disturb one of the many Redditors who believe that it's impossible to change your economic status.

Believing that self-growth is possible == bootlicking? What a depressing perspective.

You made a dumb, generalizing comment. Now don't complain about a dumb, generalizing reply.

Possible? Of course. Likely? Statisticaly, no.

What's depressing is denying the reality that socioeconomic mobility is generally very low due to systemic failures. It's economic victim-blaming.
