Working hard no longer brings rewards. Neither do the other traditional life development paths.
I was born at a time where Im somewhere between millennials and gen x. While millennials tend to be batsh*t insane on their politics, their decision to not participate in life is a very rational response to the conditions they face.
Until that gets recognized and addressed, theyre going to continue to wreck every social institution in their path, whether its needed or not.
I like that. Honest, brutal and glorious (hat tip to my friends).

This article is about males in particular, and for white men in particular, they’ve been shoved to the “back of the bus” for decades now. They don’t wreck social institutions; they’ve been told they have no role at all - so why should they care if your local Elks, Boy Scouts, or churches close? They are attacked by the same people intent on destroying Western Civilization, and are merely witnesses to it. They see what has happened to previous generations, and understand all too clearly what would condemn them to a life of economic misery: Marriage/family, and mortgages (with accompanying property taxes); who can blame them for opting out of both?
