Bloomberg Opinion writer proclaims Americans 'officially Tough as F*ck' for living through 'an attempted authoritarian takeover of your country,' etc.

Bloomberg Opinion writer Noah Smith has seen some things, y’all. And he’s a better, tougher man for it:

Wow. That means a lot coming from someone like you, Noah. Toughness personified.

Most of you also lived through the biggest terror attack in our history, a two-decade "war on terror", and two financial market crashes including the largest housing crash in our history.

This past year was difficult for a lot of people. We’re not going to dispute that. But in the grand scheme of things, we actually had it pretty good. Noah certainly seems to have made out OK.

Lmao. Ah yes, the professional classes who had to have their groceries delivered for a year while they teleworked, who watched a riot happen hundreds of miles away on TV. Obviously the new greatest generation.

Heh.

Yes there were also lots of rich people who sailed through the Depression and never got the Spanish Flu. Pat on the back.

Noah’s the one looking for a pat on the back here. He needs to feel like he accomplished something. Just let him have this, OK?

Or smack him around instead, because that’s much more entertaining.
