They will be raising children soon. Imagine how that's going to turn out. Worst parents ever. And that's saying something.
The cutting edge of this group went through high school and university entirely through the Obama years.
While the White House moved on with Trump, the media did not—we are effectively entering the 15th year of being stuck on Obama(Orwellian)-style Hope and Change—
which is better articulated in the articales phrase as whiny (perpetual) victimhood.
Gen Z would say that they have a higher purpose than fighting wars. In the eyes of the WEF New World Order types, this is true. Gen Z is to capitulate.
Good. The rest of us will probably have to be fighting them.
Two months ago, I (rightfully) tore into a Gen Z “shift manager” at a local BWW who was using the restaurant as his own personal playground - annoying me and a few other tables. Rather than deal with me, his reaction was to run back to the kitchen and hide for the remainder of the hour that I was there. Of course, it didn’t feel safe to order food at that point, so I spent my time chatting to three different staff members who thanked me for verbally spanking the little narcissistic snowflake.
[Gen Z has been raised to be addicted to pointless social media posts and to be whiny victims who have no love for traditions, family, or the United States.]
[Pretty much spot on.]
I would have to say I cannot disagree with your assessment nor the one expressed by the article.
Just a short while ago the media was talking about harvesting babies in giant fake wombs.
What the hell does anyone expect these Gen Z people to think? Does that sound like a loving family, country? Nope.
The crisis is what we have allowed to happen because we are cowards who have sacrificed the kids to have material pleasure and that still comes first because we don’t want to sacrifice anything to fight it.
Simple as that.
I have definitely seen these coming into the office over the last decade.
But I also talked with several dads last year who took with their 8 year old boys on their first hunting trip and bagged their first deer. Dressed and all. I expect those kids will do okay.
Weak people make for hard times.
Just finished a course on Neurobiology and Toxic Stress in animals. Incredibly interesting as much of how we apply the concept of stressors to animals is related to how we interpret stress in humans.
The big takeaway for me was that toxic stress actually changes brain function to a point that the Prefrontal Cortex of the brain is unable to function to stop the exaggerated behavior response to stress. Basically it is loss of logic, impulse control, and flexibility of the mind.
Gen Z is a national crisis when one considers what social media, online games, even their high use of text/phones. All of these items are stressors and for some it is a ‘toxic stress.’ What the professor is observing is the result of neurological pathways that have been altered to the point of creating a useless generation unable to cope.
According to my understanding, this cannot be undone, although new pathways can be ‘trained.’ The damage is done and will always be there. While this damage may not be genetically passed on, children raised by these individuals will have a high probability of expressing the same dysfunction.
Nailed it!
My contact with Gen Z Christians leaves me mildly hopeful and encouraged.
Well, to be sure, the military kind of did it to itself . This paradox of wanting easy to conform subordinates go hand in hand with mental illness conformity to specific categories of mental personality disorders. You cannot have a resilient person whose brain is bashable into deep state conformism the way top brass politicos do it, When General Dumpsey or Milley hate on retired officers criticizing them from a legit voting civilian sovereignty stand, you get what you get.
Should we also remind how the federal troops specifically attacked Indian tribes that solved their own family issues or systematically killed Southern prisoners who were family oriented.
The 4 Facebook experiments occurred at a time when I saw really high suicide rates around my community. These kids were subjected to 4 of them.
Those kinds of long experiments may cause epigenetic harm to them that they cannot easily change, throw in their indoctrination and there you have it.
Biblically thinking, this is not gen z… this is a symptom of Godless people who defy even the most basic truths.
We allowed our kids to be experimented on, indoctrinated, while we pursued comfort.
We said it was for the kids, but looking back I would have to say, I lied to myself.
These kids are mostly of divorced parents, including my own… they witnessed a lot of bad solutions to common problems.
Let’s be real… we have and will continue to raise these kinds of children. The next generation really scares me though. So we are at the peak, if there is no change.
We're collapsing so fast it's almost comical.
Here we are in the Decadent phase of Western Civilization when good times have produced weak men--and women and children.
The signs are everywhere.
America's weakness is not lost on America's enemies.
In fact, America's domestic enemies, i.e. America's Fifth Column, aided and abetted by America's enemies abroad, constantly encourage America's decadence and weakness. Their intention is to destroy the USA once and for all or to weaken the USA to the extent that they can seize her, with all her riches, for themselves, which is the same thing.
Their greedy hands are busy, and they salivate, as they see, for the first time in history, the real possibility of seizing America, with all her riches, for themselves and enslaving and exploiting The American People.
Many Americans are so weak, enfeebled by good times and luxury, emasculated, and brainwashed that they are unable to comprehend the danger which threatens them and their children--or the consequences of not defeating it.
In fact, some are so weakened, enfeebled, emasculated, and brainwashed that they can find no reason to survive, to have children, or to have a past or a future, which is the ultimate wretchedness of decadence.
The evil exploit this wretchedness.
Are there enough strong Americans--enough Americans who have not allowed themselves to be weakened like this--enough Americans who are strong, wise, and benevolent--to save the greatest nation in history--to save the government of The People, by The People, and for The People?
Only time will tell.
Brainwashed idiots. When they aren’t in class being brainwashed, they are being brainwashed and programmed by late night, IDIOT TV.
Part of a plan that started some time ago? Dr. Benjamin Spock got the ball rolling real good on this. Democrat policies are playing their part.
“Corrupt the young, get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, destroy their ruggedness. Get control of all means of publicity and thereby: Get the peoples’ mind off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books and plays, and other trivialities.
Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping on controversial matters of no importance. Destroy the people’s faith in their natural leaders by holding up the latter to ridicule, contempt and obloquy. Always preach true democracy but seize power as fast and as ruthlessly as possible. Encourage government extravagance, destroy its credit, produce fear with rising prices, inflation and general discontent.
Foment unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encourage civil disorders and foster a soft and lenient attitude on the part of government towards such disorders. By specious argument cause the breakdown of the old moral virtues: honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext, with the view of confiscating them and leaving the population defenseless.” ~Vladimir Lenin 1921.
That may be us.
We gotta bring them along, not write them off.
Remember, the Rats use generational division just as they use race, economic class, gender, and political affiliation, all in an effort to break up American society.
Remember, the older generation has been bitching about the younger one since the time of Socrates.
Don't take the Rats' bait.
This professor needs to put the blame where it belongs - on the parents of these kids. The kids did not create themselves. The parents created the monsters.
