80 sats \ 2 replies \ @justin_shocknet 15h \ on: Gen Z Is Worse Than You Think culture
Latter part of the article gets to the truth, gen z is more bifurcated than is normal
Some have been crushed by psywar, others hardened by it.
The ones I interact with are in direct contradiction to the doomer headlines, they're grounded family oriented hustlers trying to live up to nostalgia. Local HS is full of old trucks blasting George Strait... In what's believed nationally to be a blue state (rigged elections)
Obviously there's a selection bias since those crushed by the sidewar aren't out and about, but even headlines are reporting trans identification rates are dropping off a cliff.
Hard times create strong zoomers.
I hope you're right, but it's hard to get a sense of the aggregate from our personal experiences. I'm pretty active in a local church and the Gen Zers there are pretty based: getting jobs, getting married, respecting (even some providing for) their parents, contributing to the community in many ways. Some are even interested in bitcoin

Even Bannon was on about zoomers being "the most based generation" in the last few days and he's not exactly known for happy talk.
If anything I just can't stand the doomer generalizations, doomers themselves are broken people that need to look in the mirror... at least the zoomers have an excuse given what they've been through.
