How are so many people so brainwashed? You can tell this is the case because their beliefs don’t even make sense. Half of them contradict the other half. You can tell by their reactions to you pointing out their contrarian positions. They laugh. They don’t have any other response. They are just told that anyone who disagrees with the narrative is either evil or stupid and not to listen to those “racist/sexist/homophobic … pick your” ist”) “facts” that people use. Data is and “ist”, logic is an “ist”… Anything that goes against the teaching is an evil “ist”
For the last 10-15 years people have been espousing their deep hatred for the capitalist system that we live in. The whole system is supposedly a scam to these people designed to keep the worker down and make the rich more rich.
Millennials and Gen-Zers have been complaining about their useless college degrees that they can’t afford to pay off, how spending your life working without having time for the things that are important is some sort of new torture. How no one should have to work a job just to survive. Most of which is ridiculous on it’s face, except the college thing, but that’s for another time.
Now a successful, intelligent, well-spoken young man says the quiet part out loud, not everyone has to get a job. Not everyone has to put money and materialism at the front of their lives. There are more important things, like love, and kids, and family. Things that are truly rewarding and not just an adrenalin rush of buying the next best thing, and people are treating him like he’s the next Stalin. Who ironically wanted everyone working 100 hours a day to make the government rich and to turn on their families, which is what the crazy mob is wanting now.
People complain about the housing crisis, about wage stagnation, and about inflation.. yet, people aren’t getting married and sharing homes. People want to over saturate the job market with more employees than jobs which makes it an employers dream. And people want to keep buying $1000 phones every year, and eating out for every meal. People complain they never received personal finance classes in high school, but when given advice on personal finance are told that these things are not the problem. They also would prefer to have a gender studies class in high school than adding back Home Economics that taught things like personal finance and cooking for themselves to save money.
People are being taught not to think. They are being taught not to reason, or to even listen to actual facts and evidence. There is a war on family. A war on humanity. The people who think that they are the most kind, and the most enlightened are actually the ones with their heads in the sand. They are lied to by the media, lied to by their teachers, and lied to by every adult who failed them as a child.
People are so desperate for something real in their lives that they are dying by the 10s of thousands every year from drug overdoses and suicides, and it’s only getting worse. People hate life. They are told that having a family and kids will kill your opportunity at happiness… so many choose to kill their babies and live in a drug induced stupor instead. Or they are told that going to college and having a career is the only way to fulfillment, and they end up 10s of thousands of dollars in debt only to get a job that they don’t need a degree for and doesn’t pay enough to pay off their debts, and then they complain the government who started the whole process as if they are the saviors who need to fix it.
People complain that they have to work for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week… because they shouldn’t have to work to survive, as if that was ever the case. They think that “Things” are just there. That includes, iPhones, clothes, food, cars, and everything else that they want. They would never get a job making any of those things… that is for “other people”. Or maybe no one makes them and they just appear… who knows.. it’s not their problem. They just want it and it’s someone else’s job to give it to them. They need something to make themselves happy.
It won’t be a strong and committed marriage. Sex is just for fun, and relationships are so outdated and misogynist. Kids are a drain on your money and time and if you accidentally make one while having fun then kill it immediately and move on from that partner… just in case it happens again. If you do decide to keep it, don’t worry, the government will help you pay for it. They’ll give you free housing, food, daycare, and money. You can just stick the kid in the free daycare all day and go out and spend the money on whatever you want.. and make sure to have more than one baby daddy, that’ll get you more child support.
Yup, the new society is about dopamine hit after dopamine hit with no one being really happy and thousands dropping like flies, but hey, these shells of people keep voting for the politicians that take their money and give it to the giant corporations, so that makes everything better. And all those people who chose to work till they drop with no kids… they’ll have plenty of money left over with no heirs that the government can snatch up. There’s no thinking involved.
