    Half of the Lemmy users continually talk about how they never want to work for a minute while still being able to eat, sleep, and play games and smoke weed all day.

    You tell me if you figure it out, please

        A red herring doesn’t need to exist to use it as a distraction.

        “These jackasses over here seem to want to live their lives happier, healthier, and carefree like some utopia or something. Dummies, amirite?”

      The main difference between most of the folks you reference is that they are wishing for something even if they don’t know a reasonable way to get there. Sometimes what they describe they think to be realistic is in fact not realistic, but they are wishing and hoping but generally living in reality according to the rules while they do so.

      Versus outright trying to rip off others to “achieve” that goal, making up your own money, declaring yourself actually immune to all inconvenient laws.
