Curious why social media is to blame when adults exploiting and denigrating youth is timeless.
When society as a whole turns a blind eye to their future struggles; drill baby drill! What you want to afford a home and a fam? Lol no; hustle culture and technology to fetishize!
Did social media manipulate the economy to deflate GenZ and empower the dying?
Was social media responsible for 2008 crash, money printing?
Government full of entitled people who don’t like what the kids had to say about them, so they retaliated.
Is it tech or is it American Civic Life that’s garbage?
anxiety is a disease. we didn't have a major war or famine so it's unlikely that material factors are so bad as to cause mass stress and anxiety like they do during wars. OTOH genz were raised under the watchful and judgemental eye of large crowds/mobs, and everyone thought that was OK. I think we will soon have convincing evidence that this sort of constant comparison is as bad as destructive addictive substances
As an anxious millennial who left social media and daily news a while ago: Yes they're a problem. But the main factor is that we're destroying our natural habitat and fueling geopolitical instability.
Both of these are extremely complex problems to solve and would require consistent efforts over generations. However the people in power are happily trading the future of humanity for more money and power, and finding support from a large section of the population in doing so.
I can't speak for everyone but this is why I have a hard time working on my next jira ticket after reading the news.
Try having that plus a bit of disability and trying to keep healthcare coverage while navigating employment/layoffs.
And yeah, seeing the temperature anomaly charts this past summer makes you wonder if anything is even going to matter in a decade or two. I’m ever glad I never wanted children; I can’t imagine the anxiety of trying to raise them in the modern world.
