Consumerism. Consumerism is the problem.
We have sold out.
It'll get you laid!
The problem is consumerism.
Narcissism is just a symptom of our insecurity.
The problem with you being the rare parent to hold their child accountable is that your kid is just going to see it as you being unfair to them. Their peers are going to laugh at them.
A lot of their peers legitimately don't need to worry about being a responsible adult. They will inherit enough wealth to never have to work a day in their life.
Welcome to post-scarcity.
Honestly, I wish I realized it more as a kid. There's not really a reason to pay attention to shit we don't care about because there's some autist out there who is going to enjoy doing it and do it better. We can just apply their solutions and move on with our lives. It's not like they will even care. They're too busy doing other things.
Bless the next generation for fighting back against our tunnel vision.
Makes sense in one of the most consumerist places on earth.
Thank you for understanding. It's clear how few people are actually equipped to help kids like these.
Agreed.
It's a good thing most of the people on these forums don't have much influence on the outside world.
I mean, he's having an easier time getting laid than most of the people criticizing him on these forums so...
Who do you think adolescent boys are going to listen to more?
Not everyone is equipped to help people like that.
