Maybe you were radicalized by 9/11. Or 2008. Or Covid.
But nothing beats the red pill these zoomers are taking when they google “why will I never be able to own a home”
Discussion
Wtc7 takes the cake still
They could have bought a home but instead they bought crap. I bought crap. Many of us bought crap. Live fast, die young said the 55 year old generation X pundit.
The zoomers have not bought anything yet. They’re barely out of college.
Nah, zoomers have the money but they rather spend it on garbage and then surprised when they don’t have any money.
You don’t know what you’re talking about. There are zoomers getting out of top law schools making $50k a year with $300k+ of student debt. (Source: one of their professors I know.)
That sounds like a them problem.
Yes, actively impoverishing our civilization’s young people won’t have any ramifications for the whole of society, you’re right
So they should have become tradesmen where they would net $100,000 without usury.
Let's add operators, machinist, mechanics, HVAC technicians...
This is a great suggestion for someone who hasn’t already been conned into the usury and gotten a JD. Certainly something I will tell my own kids to do. But it doesn’t fix the problem of having an entire generation in a compromised position. And they are going to realize the system fucked them more clearly and more broadly than any of the previous generations realized it.
I'm paying my student loans by working as a tradesman. I recommend anyone to do the same.
Also,
Get rid of the pride aspect of having a degree. If you are in debt then you are not smart.
Finally,
More reliance on God and less reliance on the nonsense from Universities. The price of an education like the price of medical care skyrocketed due to easy money from the government.
Also morefinally,
Stop blaming the previous generation for your own sins. Stop pandering to adult children.
You’re not understanding the point of my post at all. No one is blaming. No one is pandering. No one is acting entitled. On the contrary, the kids I just spoke with are incredibly based. They seek answers themselves on the internet by default and can’t be expected to follow a system that can’t give them a path to a home. I didn’t know shit about Blackrock or seed oils or controlled demolition on 9/11 at 23. These guys state things casually that still feel revolutionary when I say them out loud. The ease with which these guys swallow the red pill is hope-inspiring. And it makes sense - the system can’t even offer them a path to a home, why would they cooperate at all?
The answer is to get a job doing something useful with your hands.
But I don't want to be a grouchy guy so if you don't have a solution, listen. If you do have a solution then share it.
A mass awakening of an entire generation IS the solution. You and me telling them that meaningful productive work with their hands isn’t the solution - but having them be so based that they discover it themselves IS.
You eat an elephant one bite at a time.
There will be no mass awakening until there is a rapture and for many that will be too late.
Men arguing over what make belief they manufacturer is the truth verses the testimony of thousands of years of believers whose fruit is good and who know the truth.

40. The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
41. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
42. Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.
43. For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
44. For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
45. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaket...
