This tracks as generation’s are getting increasingly closer together now. I’m supposedly the same “generation” as people who graduated from school before I was born. Last few years there’s a new generation every few months - zoomers, generation alpha, beta cucks, etc.

well new time iwth gen z, people dont want to work for the richest people for minium salary and opputinity, meanwhile boomer generation just work to work and earn some money, and get some children to fight for even more spare jobs......... AI days coming sooner or later yep yep. still respect them for building our country. but honestly idk why your life should be the job your working on, when the job treats you like bad fish that when you do something to get any attention, your fired.

Crisis seems like the natural operating mode of c*pitalism

Sounds like it's time to stop believing the way headlines and pundits phrase things.
