‘I cannot afford to live’: Gen Z is full of financial angst despite inheriting a golden job market

"Gen Z is coming into the workforce and -- in the grand tradition of what Millennials cringe-ily called “adulting” -- they're complaining about how much easier older generations have had it financially," writes Allison Morrow.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/10/business/gen-zs-financial-angst/index.html

Anybody who thinks this is a great job market for an entry level worker has obviously not actually talked to anyone who is one, it's a total poo poo-show. Resumes getting dumpstered by ai-powered recruiting machinery, fake job postings, literally hundreds to thousands of applications required to actually get to the part where you talk to a human and that's if you actually have an in-demand skill. A lot of these poor fucks are just stuck at the bottom in go-nowhere service jobs and watching their rent and food costs climb every month, waiting for the axe to drop.

The whole of academic and pop history is full of “historians” who take a carefully curated selection of sources and torture them into a predetermined or otherwise asinine conclusion. They do this to justify their own sense of cultural/technological/racial/etc superiority over the backwards, primitive cultures of the past, to make some modern political point, or simply stake their claim as someone with something new and controversial to say about X and justify their position as an expert in Academia.

The Democrats got fuckin vaporized in 2016 and 4 years later they were right back in power with even more conservative leadership, making zero concessions. Can't be reformed or taken over IMO.

I remember having the same argument back in the bad thread.
Dumbasses straightfaced claiming that the left's inability to merely overrun the party like a horde of World War Z zombies and through sheer numbers overcome billions of dollars in lobbyist money, a multimedia empire, and the party literally changing the rules to always win is proof that they just don't want it badly enough.

They don't because if they did they'd be organizing outside the obvious trap that is the Democratic Party

The ruling class must really be getting nervous about the pro-Palestine protesting now, given that they're suspending students for having consciences.

i think its a hind-brain reflex of a dying hegemony more than elite anxiety. unable to saturate the media narrative sufficiently to make wrongthink impossible, the reflexive move is (and always has been) to go straight to punitive measures and violence if people persist.
