Gen Z’s identity crisis might be hitting early because of higher amounts of financial instability in their early career years, experts said.

Idk about you, but at this rate, I don’t dare try to tell them otherwise.

The jokes will be on the billionaires whose wet dream for the last 4p years was to gut social security…not only will people pass from Deaths of Despair long before that. 67 YO in this world? Lol. Give capitalism another decade unfettered and male life expectancy will be in the 60s, guaranteed.

-life expectancy is already plummeting in the US vs. other countries, but the morons are going to kill much immigration–the only thing that has been sustaining the US’s population. Every other country would be desperate for cheap, unskilled labor to exploit and birthrates but not these short-sighted greedy fucks.

Yeah, but that’s why they do things like getting rid of abortion rights, and why they push conspiracy theories about white people being replaced, and sadly it all seems to be working

Despite our ridiculously unhealthy typical lifestyle, I’m pretty sure most of that decrease is still coming off the front-end (worsening infant mortality rates), not the back-end (adults not living as far into old age).

That still seems a bit high.

It’s beginning to hit them: no matter how well they do, the planet is fucked, and nobody with the power to change things seems to care. Their choices are either “midlife crisis” or “live in denial”.

And their men are backsliding into racism and misogyny. So apparently we need to relitigate like 70 years of basic human rights and democratic first principles AGAIN before we can make any effort at tackling these very obvious upcoming problems.

Can you still have a midlife crisis when everything seems like a crisis? Anyhow, welcome to the club.
