    Thought I'd be open-ended with this particular question. Considering that I'd probably want to ensure we can see where things stand at this time.

    As a reference for myself, my folks are Gen X, some even Boomers (to get a perspective), and they see Zoomers as lazy, irresponsible, and stubborn. Maybe it's because they don't see how their religious zealotry caused people to get tossed over.

    Actually, on /pol/, there was one post on it that said the following:

    "I think the biggest takeaway from all this should be for those who’ve been economically and emotionally struggling, particularly white men. The problem isn’t your skills, your looks, your charisma, etc., it’s that you’ve been “competing” in a completely fake illusion world where every enterprise from games to journalism to industry to art museums is getting unlimited money (stolen from you) from the government faucet. And it wasn’t even a faucet, it’s a firehose. Everything from video games to the decor at Pizza Hut was rigged.

    Couldn’t find a job? Literally not your fault.

    Couldn’t get into college? Literally not your fault.

    Couldn’t get a business of the ground? Literally not your fault.

    Couldn’t find a girl with values? Literally not your fault.

    Couldn’t get a youtube channel to take off? Literally not your fault.

    To all the anons reading this, it isn’t your fault. It really was everyone and everything else. You’re not crazy. You’re doing fine. The deck wasn’t just stacked against you, the whole game was fake."

      I'm not quite following the argument here:

      in a completely fake illusion world where every enterprise from games to journalism to industry to art museums is getting unlimited money (stolen from you) from the government faucet.

      ...and...

      Couldn’t find a job? Literally not your fault.

      These two idea suggest there is an endless supply of money that hasn't originated from you, but comes form somewhere and should belong to you. Am I reading that right? Where is the "somewhere" and why should it belong to the "you"? And how are games getting unlimited government money?
