Driving cost money (remeber used cars selling for more than new?). They use to get drivers license to hang out (and have sex) with their friends. Now everything moved online.
Alcohol decreases where marajuana is legalized, a safer alternative.
Women saw the right to an abortion disappear- and more than half of gen Z men support it. That plus sex ed leads to low levels of sex.
But, no, it is because all of Gen Z is "Timid".
As a millennial, fuck this article and all of those like it. Now they're going after Gen Z with their Pro-Boomer attacks. My generation got fucked but Gen Z and Gen α are getting it even worse, without even getting the childhood benefits that we had.
Boomers have stolen the futures from at least two generations, and if you include Gen X, that's three generations sacrificed on the altar of "Generation Me."
And all the while they've been gaslighting us and spreading their ignorant nonsensical arguments as though they understand anything about anything. It's beyond frustrating.
Boomers are not a collective hivemind, generations are divisions the rich use to dominate the working class.
It does feel like an accusation, doesn't it?
Why did they get the black eye I gave them with my status quo?
