In other words, just a gathering of lazy ba$tards
It is beyond simple laziness now (at least for the average young low-information leftist); they can see very clearly that they will most likely have a noticeably lower standard of living than previous generations of Americans, and they have no confidence the status quo will ever address that.
These people disgust me with their politics of envy, but don’t ignore basic realities they face. My teen children are working for the same hourly wage I earned 30 years ago - not adjusted for inflation, but the same actual wage - which is ridiculous. The wages are suppressed because borders are left open to stop supply & demand from ever raising those wages. So now those young Americans can work for depressed wages, and on top of that, they are surrounded by far more imported foreigners than most of us ever encountered (and I grew up in a “diverse” area). They have little hope of ever providing for a family, owning a car (not just for the price of the car itself, but the costs of insuring and maintaining it), or ever owning a home - there is simply 0 economic stability (outside of government work) that would give people the confidence to make these leaps of faith at various points in their life to attain what we used to know of as “The American Dream”.
What we are seeing now is our young people ending up in the same place Western Europe’s people arrived at decades ago, with the same political and demographic disasters as result (non-breeding people voting socialist, with trafficked foreigners filling the country and consuming much of the “freebies”).
