They lack our values of rugged individualism and being a goddamned shithead! These godless youth!
Look if you ever reach the point of muttering about "Kids these days" and it's not about how they all suck at Counter Strike you are lost. Utterly lost. The spirit of humanity has died within you and is rotting. The kids will be fine. The kids have always been fine. There has never been a generation of The Kids in history that was truly weirder than their parents.
You say that until you get dabbed on by the skibidi rizzler
Couldn't be. I'm the bees knees. I'm a hep cat. I'm the darb to all the dames down at the juice joint. Got my glad rags on, giggle water in hand, putting on the ritz so i can meet a nice sheba and go neck in the coatroom.
The phrase "ritz rizzler" just entered my brain and now you have to think about it.
When the past and the future come together to make something not quite as good as either!

I don't think judging a generation by those who survived is fair. The cool people tend to die earlier
You might have a point, but what killed the cool Xers, then?
Material conditions or alternatively, were they ever that cool?
I have a theory that for many people, the youth-leftist thing isn't based in solidarity or whatever, it's based in self-interest - across generations. Makes sense to be a socialist, when you're poor, and all. As the survivors gain their riches, they get more conservative - they have property to "defend" now. They were always self-serving people, it's just they were occasionally in a position where that meant to be vaguely left.
I do not get this comment, could you be more direct?
I was stating that my own "youth leftist thing" wasn't necessarily self-interest unless you want to boil down the desire to help others and see them be well as neurochemically-driven "selfishness" or whatever.
And I'd believe you, I don't think nobody helps others out of the good of their heart or whatever. Those people exist, loads of them are here.
I'm saying, when you get into generational views, it might not hold up for a large amount for them.
As a numbers game, you're right, it doesn't.
My biological family is staggeringly loaded with chuds to the point that I moved to the opposite coast in part just to escape them.
Mine too. But they're old and need help, even though they don't see it that way. So I help them then get sick of them. Rinse repeat.
I did that for decades of my life, but those chuds are on their own now. I'm raising a family of my own as far as I can be from their influence now.
Yeah wouldn't necessarily blame all this on people being ontologically "self-serving" from the beginning, thats liberal moralistic thinking. A shift towards cuckservativism its just an inevitable consequence of gaining wealth and property within a capitalist society. They weren't born selfish, they became selfish after years of indoctrination and falling into a position that strongly incentivises it.
