Fuck world

Dude every 20 year old ever thinks like this. It is basically part of coming to terms with your place in the world and the lie of what was sold vs what you got given. The 60's were like blah blah reject the warmongering industrialism of the previous generation, the 70's got a bit excessive as a rejection of the back to basics hippies, the 80's got punk as a rejection of the pacifism and the exuberance, the 90's got too cool for school too cool to care as a rejection of the obvious anger and violence and outward physical expression of the 80's and so on and so on. Everyone finishes puberty and goes is this it? Now I'm an adult this is the world I've been left with? Thanks you old assholes, I'll do things a different way I think.

The late 90's early 00's were filled with consumer growth and rising living standards, everything got a bit bourgeoisie as traditional socialism and political movements all lost ground to the drives of globalisation, money markets and neo-liberal capitalism.

In fact it is fairly predicable that you'd rage against this degeneracy and search for something with more substantial humanistic meaning to get behind.

Thing is, like most teenage rebels, you'll eventually stop giving a shit and become old and part of the next generation. At the moment you have a fresh perspective but no power, you are outnumbered and the dominant culture ignores you. By the time you are 30 then your generation will be in charge of businesses and influencing politics and you'll start to have money and power. You won't really see your political aspirations develop until you are in your 50's, but this is normal and at the point when you can outvote everyone to get your own selfish way creating a fucked up world designed for the past not the future and the next generation of teenage rebels wondering why the world is so retarded and unsuitable.

Circle of life simba.

Interesting, I never thought about it in this way.
I hope the current situation will indeed change when I am in my 30s, however it is painful to spend your youth in the worst times (of all that you named)
What do you think will come next?

I hope there will be a paradigm shift. Typically many people have a lot invested in the old way of doing things and stand to lose a lot from new developments and as they are currently on the top they can actively block new developments and act against better ways of doing things, but eventually these people die or retire or the weight of opposition overwhelms them and suddenly the whole situation flips and within a couple of years we are doing things completely differently and it feels like it was always that way.

Like we live in an information age where the internet has made the cost of duplication of information practically free, yet we are trying to still hold onto intellectual property and value it based on a system from before the internet. You've got education designed for a world that no longer exists, degrees sold as debt because they are supposed to help the individual and therefore they'll earn more and should pay it back rather than acknowledging that education helps all of society, why does a degree cost thousands when there aren't jobs for every graduate and the cost of information is nothing?

I think we should educate the world using freely distributed information on a mass scale and allow knowledge and ability to determine value and worth rather than theories of economics which are ultimately protecting those invested in the current system. As I said education helps everybody except those looking to control access and that access is controlled through a class based system of what you were born into. Got to be able to afford the education to be able to play our game to win the tokens which will allow you to play our game.

Also workers who believe in their own exploitation due to some moral or ethical ideas about the notion of work. I'm not saying that work isn't incredibly important to bring meaning and validation to life, but we shouldn't participate in our own exploitation and by extension enable and support the exploitation of others.

Sounds like your only option is to shut the fuck up and move to a cave in the woods so the rest of us heathens and degenerates don't have to endure your mind numbing superiority complex.

On the upside side, I'm sure there's plenty of shit in the woods for you to hate.
