    1 do you believe it's tru

    2 assume it is tru for the US for dis question: "hard times" is usually described as when the country's goin thru big war s*** and said war is affecting the average person's life back here, prolly easiest examples bein ww1 and 2. i dunno if conflicts as significant as those have arisen since then (mby covid could've developed into a more comparable one if it was looking to last a lot longer)

    so does that mean we r in the good times --> weak ppl part? things seem decent; the average person isn't struggling to get food, our access to normal societal services isn't too hindered (and is really only hindered by covid rn)

    if so, what would be a "strong" prson in dis context

    i have my doubts that a war effort that drains as much from the average US person as the ww's did will occur again, so probably no more tough times in the way the quote used to reference. do u think the quote just doesn't work anymore, or do u think there r other ways to create whatev "strong" person u think could exist or does

    obviously there will be strong n weak ppl during all periods of history n now and future, dis quote is a generalization so keep that in mind if u wanna answer dis bullshit

    I believe it’s true, and yes, we are living in good times. Take one look at all these p**** ass mfs that have been bred. People have gotten too comfortable. A strong man within this context will create his own challenges.

    Hard and easy is all relative, a lot of people might’ve had it easier than past generations but COVID definitely qualifies these past couple years as a legitimate hard time

    I’m not a history buff and I know the wars were worse but this s*** drained a lot from a lot of people

    i agree it was surprisingly impactful but the thing i use to differentiate it from the ww's is their duration

    the peak of covid-making-everything-worse happened last year and overall the severity is clearly dimming for the general ppl. it doesnt mean that the severity doesnt matter, but bad s*** compounds over time, and the ww's had a lot more time to do dat

    Will never forget this from the album Food and Liquor

    Struggle... yeah yeah, another sign that God love you
    Cause on the low, bein po', make you humble
    Keep they names in my rhymes to try and keep them out of trouble
    Cause bein po', also teach you how to hustle

    This is a reflection of Proverbs 3:11-12 & Hebrews12:6-7 where those that endure the hard times God places us in become great.

    Essentially that's the American experience as a whole. The best music, art, leaders etc. rise from the same hard times that we endure on a daily basis. Everyone's struggle is different but to overcome what we're faced with is what emboldens us to leave positivity on this earth.

    I think it is absolutely true no doubt, but I don't think hard times is related to state of current affairs but more so in relation to what you're dealing with. Poverty, d**** use, hard home life etc

    Yes. It’s true. Once you go through times where you wish you were dead and make it back you’ll understand. Struggle makes you a man.

    most times i’ve seen this quote is by 14 year olds who want us to be living in ww2 or they say “germany should’ve won”

    or it’s been white people in general talking about how this is a weak generation

    meanwhile the “good times” that’s supposed to be now is completely garbage considering boomers are ruining everything for us
