I hate to say it but also gen z (and gen alpha) not knowing shit about fuck is part of the problem. It's hard to describe without sounding like I'm shitting on them. Cuz it's not their fault.
My brother in law is a university professor and told me yesterday that the students he's getting now can't even read. He's contemplating retiring early because of this.
And the kicker, he says that a college education is a waste of money at this point. He says you can learn a lot more on your own with just internet resources and no distractions from the people who are in college now.
I would have never been able to predict this sort of comment from him. It must be really bad.
Please tell me that is an Ozark TV show reference:
Indirectly it might be. Never watched the show. No idea where I heard the term. "Fuckall" just seemed out of style.
They were raised on social media, social media gives a voice to the loudest and the dumbest because that drives engagement. It's no wonder they are all a bunch of morons when thats the only thing they have known.
Boomers and gen-x had leaded gasoline making them dumb millennials had brain damaged idiots raising them to be dumb and now gen z has social media making them dumb.
Totally. Like they live in a world where the potential payout for playing the clout lottery is significantly higher than anything traditional hard work can guarantee them.
They do have agency, so it is their fault.
IMO youre wrong and it's not your fault.
Nobody can be ever at fault, how very convenient.
Now you're being ridiculous.
