That image you used cracks me up. Tiktokers. Fucking Tiktokers. I find it funny how the same generation that brought us REDDIT, TWITTER and 4CHAN are clutching their fucking pearls over fucking TikTok. Oh no! Kids are acting like.....kids? Shut it down! Shut it the fuck down! And I like the use of "90's bully" too, 'cause I can literally FEEL the seething: some beta nerd bitch dreaming of a world in which he can get a one-up on the alpha bully that fucked with him for a laugh or two, and likely doesn't even remember who he is. In another post, I brought up how feminine these "men" are and this is yet another example: catty, vindictive bitching. It really is just projection. They talk about SOYBOY NPC CONSOOMERS, but go on fucking Kiwi Farms, and there's 100+ page threads on wrestling, capeshit, anime, and dad rock, full of post after post of how they can't in good conscience enjoy consooming anymore because amoral companies dared to, y'know, make even more money by expanding the audience. Sure, is it stupidly done a lot of times? You bet, but what do you expect them to do? Make X amount of money and say yeah, we're done, no need for more? And you know most of 'em pirate shit anyway. There are entire boards on 4chan et al dedicated to comics and cartoons, but some guy cries over the Star Wars trailer, and suddenly he becomes a meme. They say feminists do fuck all for non-white women, and yet what have they done to advance their goals for their group? Jack and shit, most likely. They make jokes about trannies killing themselves, but commercials with white women and black men are EVIL and are endorsing literal genocide of white people. They talk about how white kids are getting the shaft with CRT, but Breivik was based. Joshua Connor Moon, admin of Kiwi Farms, literally threw a tamper tantrum over hosting Christchurch footage, but threw one of his own under the bus when the FBI came a'knocking. Him, and others like him, talk about women destined to be miserable and rotten if they're childless over 30, but men who are childless and over thirty are based for rejecting the matriarchy. And 'ol Joshie in particular says that only people who have children have any value, yet Ethan Ralph, who he's totally not jealous of, has two? When even Jack fucking Scalfani is managing his life better than you, you have serious problems. It's funny how KF is the "premiere" lolcow forum, and yet every single lolcow on there has a life infinitely better than Josh Moon's will ever be. They talk about blacks living on the dole, but being NEET is based and redpilled, d00d. They talk about white men always being painted out to be evil, but yet every story they tell, the villains are ALWAYS women/non-whites. Every. Single. Time. Yeah, I totally believe you had RL memes prancing around your college telling you to check your privilege. Puh-fucking-LEASE. Those stories are as transparently fake as the shit on Tumblr. We have literal lolicons getting assmad over futas in Cyberpunk, for Christ's sake. Millennial fragility and self-infantalization is real, and you gotta love that Kiwi Farms thread on why millennials are "fucking less," as it's full of self-hating millennials pretending they're other gens, pretending that they're somehow better off despite being an effeminate narc who has to run to a hugbox because they can't drop unnecessary slurs in discussions anymore. And y'know, it's to be expected that boomers would be ageist fucks, but the millennials: they take adultism to a whole new level. Case in point, the TikTok shit. We get it, you're jealous they're young and you're old. Are you gonna apologize to the boomers you've scapegoated for over twenty years and admit you're not as perfect as you think you are? Could it be that human beings as a whole are pretty rotten, and that being an asshole isn't a trait monopolized by (insert group here)? No, no, it's Boomers/Gen Z who are wrong. But hey, let's say boomers ARE to blame. Let's say it IS their fault: what the fuck have you done about it?

>We need to STAY HOME AND SAVE THE LIVES OF THE SAME GENERATION THAT RUINED EVERYTHING!

Oh. Right.

>>24163
All that arrested development you mention goes back to what I said. The silly, shallow romanticism of childhood.
Kids nowadays cannot enjoy anything without adults trying to hijack it.
TikTok is just Vine 2.0
All the scandals coming from TikTok are just rare instances that are exaggerated because they involve kids.

>Kids nowadays cannot enjoy anything without adults trying to hijack it.

Reminds me of an article I read about YA. Here's a snippet:

>In 2008, at the suggestion of a professional-writer mother who was tired of hearing her 13-year-old daughter endlessly talk about Edward Cullen, I launched a blog about young adult literature. WORD for Teens changed my life. What started as a place for me to ramble about the books I loved so that my mother wouldn’t have to deal with my monologues over the dinner table became a place where I reviewed books sent to me by publishers, advocated against the “not like other girls” trope, and covered news of upcoming YA releases. I was a teenager writing for other teenagers, but my audience and network consisted mostly of adults, especially after I joined Twitter.

And there it is. There is the uncomfortable truth that adults invaded a teen space created by a teen (and not an adult this time around like magazines) because they haven't grown up. Maybe they were trying to live vicariously through a young novice writer, but there was no reason for them to be there. The blog was created with a teen audience in mind, and yes, periphery demographics are important, but why the fuck were they there in the first place? It may have led to somewhat of a career due to the connections she made, and yet that doesn't make it any less suspicious.

>Then adults have the nerve to wonder why the newer generations are supposedly declining?
>I hate how whenever a young person makes a mistake or has a flaw, they attribute to youth, yet older people can be flawed and accident-prone and still have their personhood respected.

Because, to them, "youth is wasted on the young," which is totally not codeword for how jealous they are, of course not! It's all jealousy. And have you ever noticed the projection? Every single time I see someone bashing zoomers, all I can think is that they're regurgitating the same spiel their fathers tried to give them. Seriously, every time I read their posts, I read them in the voice of an angry father. We mentioned ODD in another thread, but I think daddy issues are rife among so called "conservative," "alt-right," "based and redpilled" men. It'd explain why their rationalizations for their cognitive dissonance resemble the sex workers who think getting gangbanged by a bunch of dudes is empowering for women. Either their fathers were total deadbeats and they're overcompensating, or their fathers actually gave a shit, but they're too prideful to admit he was right. And lastly, I will never stop finding it funny how the same crowd that obsesses over how "WOKE!!!!" KIDS MEDIA like comic books and video games are these days, so much so that they themselves can no longer in good faith consume KIDS MEDIA, are saying shit like oh, if only those men who fought in WWII knew what they were fighting for: bitch, what? You think they'd like you ANY more than the "soyboys" you whine about? And on the flip side, imagine being a suffragette and being told your descendants will include women who think enabling ED-ridden boomers to cheat on their dry as fuck wives is empowering women. But you know that if their parents actually gave a shit, none of this would be a problem. I guarantee that every single "incel," "femcel," "SJW," "alt-righter" wouldn't hold their positions if it wasn't for a father who didn't man up and a mother who checked out. Personally, I think a lot more would if they started charging 'em. I know it's hip and cool to bash the desk jockeys we call teachers, and a lot of times they deserve it, but these kids always, ALWAYS, come from broken homes in some capacity.

>God forbid kids should like horror, cuss words, porn, or different ethnicities.

Don't forget that they may even, gasp, like the same sex! Also, I find it funny how so many boomerlennial types grew up on shitty teen movies and shows like Beavis and Butthead that were all about coomer fantasies, and yet all of a sudden, sluts are bad? Why? Because you were too much of a boring bitch to get some? And I find it funny how so many of them will go "rape isn't as big a problem as foids make it out to be, they cum during it anyway" one moment, but when troons in women's bathrooms is discussed, suddenly they start sounding like feminists, the same exact feminists they poke fun at for thinking all men will rape them or some shit. There was, in fact, a troon that reportedly raped a teenage girl in a school bathroom, and what happened? Right, all the "WOMEN BAD" types are suddenly clutching their pearls and virtue signalling - those troons are the REAL misogynists!!!! In the end, it's safe to say that they're just ODD-ridden contrarians who don't really care about anything but pissing people off. Look no further than the anti-vaxxers who spent decades shitting on kids' mental health, let alone when it comes to school shootings, only to bleat on about "KIDS ARE SUFFERING IN LOCKDOWN" like they give a shit. Randy Shilts must be turning so much in his grave, we could probably end our dependence on fossil fuels and simply use him to power our society overnight.

>>24182
>but I think daddy issues are rife among so called "conservative," "alt-right," "based and redpilled" men.
That sounds about right. Literally everyone I've ever met who's been like that has had some sort of family problems.

>>24188

>most likely a boy pretending to be a girl on the internet honey

So like Lolcow Farm's entire userbase?

>>24190
Nah, they're girls pretending to be men. Real men don't need to bully the mentally handicapped so they look better by comparison.

>>24191

No, they're men pretending to be girls. They got tired of pretending to be "le based incels," so now they're opting for "le woke femcels" now. I can't imagine having that little of a life, honestly. You're right about the bullying bit, though. I said the same thing about all those YouTube videos about Norman Boutin and Empress Theresa.

>>24191
That's true. Real men bully the handicapped because it's entertaining and well-deserved.

>>24217
So you're a sociopath?

David Foster Wallace once said that the more we are taught to list and resent the things that we were deprived of as children, the more we live in that anger and frustration, and the more we remain children. If that doesn't sum up millennials and their zoomerphobia, I don't know what will.

>>24224
All of this was because of the gross excessive romanticism of childhood.
If adults were mature enough to look at childhood SUBJECTIVELY, then "generation gaps" wouldn't exist.
Most kids, especially nowadays, don't have the rosy, wacky misandventures and colorblind apprentices that books love to illustrate.

>>24225

Millennials are notoriously narcissistic; if they dislike zoomers it's because they're realizing that now zoomies are the cool hot young 20 year olds and the millennials are starting to get old. It's the same thing as when older siblings get jealous of the new baby. But they can't just admit they're scared shitless of aging (and with likely nothing to show for it), so they spin it as a patriarchal or Jewish plot to undermine them. No, bitch, you're just joining the previous generations at the Forgotten Kids' Table. Leave your cartoon frogs and Harry Potter trivia at the door.

But millennials will be like LOLZOOMERSBAD and act like their shit don't stink ----> they're lowkey scared shitless of the fact that it's only a matter of time before society completely pivots to Gen Z/Alphas and leaves them in the dust. That's when the fun begins, and it's gonna get messy.

The only thing millennials are hustling doing is posting about why X people are holding them down, not, y'know, their repellent personality, chronic desire to avoid working, the fact their "culture" is basically cartoon frogs and kissing the ass of the most overrated author of all time. By the 2030s, millennials will be pretending to be Gen X or Z en masse, and it's gonna be hilarious.

I don't give a fuck about your "argument". Unlike yourself, I don't see the world entirely as group X vs. group Y vs. group Z. I just find it fascinating how much you love the feeling of playing a part. Must make you feel so good about yourself - your collective self, that is.

Yeah, sure, which is why you post on a dead site, an obsolete medium, whining about INSERT GROUP HERE BAD and Reddit spacing, because why else would you post here? Go on. Tell everybody why you still post on an imageboard in 2021. What, was your based and redpilled take on children's media like cartoons and video games just a little too triggering for your fellow Redditors? I know you want to think you got me there, but you didn't: see, I judge individuals on their own merit, and if I see an anon, like you, whom I can get a laugh or two out of fucking with, I'll do it. Why? Because I like coming here, it's funny to rile you morons up and laugh at how you're so used to generalizing/stereoptying everybody else online, but when it's done back to you, suddenly you trot out the same arguments you're given by others. And y'know, truth is, I don't hate millennials. I don't. I just like poking fun at the ones who make 'em look bad. Also, must make me feel so good about yourself? Well, sure! I mean, I love when my obvious shitposting riles you retards up, all trying to come up with the lamest "gotcha's" in an attempt to one-up me. I never would've guessed that the same medium that brought us Chanology and inflammatory soda pop labels would one day be full of goofs who don't realize when they've been had. Perhaps what I say hits too close to home? Now please, tell me more about how you don't give a fuck about my argument, yet decided to reply to it anyway. I'll never stop finding it funny how so many online will say they don't give a fuck about something, yet still reply. If you didn't give a fuck about what I had to say, what WAS compelling you to respond? Like I said: did I hit too close to home?

>>24226
You know what I've noticed? This is regardless of generation, but, the people who whine the most about "kids these days" are often former delinquents and jocks.
Almost every time when I hear an adult whine about how the newer classes of kids are too wild/too pampered etc, these same grumblers were badass kids back their day. They be bragging about all the pranks they pulled on teachers, the drugs they smoked, the girls they fucked, the fights they started, etc. Some of them have records. They also like to brag about all the violent media they consumed and the privileges they got as students.
They got to have privileges the new kids will never have. Yet they cry about the flashy new toys that they never got back in their day.

I don't disagree with you; in fact, I think you're onto something, BUT I don't think any jocks would be found on an imageboard, and I don't think you could even call anons here delinquents in that sense -----> I mean, I have a hard time believing the average anon had the balls to pull a prank, the confidence to pull in girls, to start a fight. I think, at least online, the vast majority of critiques of kids these days come from people in the crowds that'd gather around said delinquents, the hangers-on, the clout-chasers. You remember Beavis and Butthead and how they wanted to join Todd's gang so much, despite how much Todd loathed them? That's the average critic of today's youth. They're so caught up in self-denial and veneration of others that, to them, any kid who isn't an exact replication of their idol is cucked, pozzed, whatever. It's like a father who pushes his son into football, a mother who pushes her daughter into beauty pageants. It's the same inability to understand people are their own individual selves, not easily defined as internet discourse would have us believe.

Is this your first time on an imageboard? This is basically the only reason imageboards even existed in the first place. Because Mommy and Daddy didn't give 'em the colonostickectomy they desperately needed, they end up viewing everything like a Mean Girls character. They call everyone else normies, because they want to pretend like they're somehow different despite consuming the exact same product as anyone else. Doing everything exactly opposite from "The Mainstream" is the same thing as doing everything exactly like "The Mainstream." You're still using What Everyone Else is Doing as your primary point of reference. It's the same kind of stupid that is practiced by Satanists who worship the Christian Devil. They treat websites like clubhouses, literal boys rule/girls drool type shit. They have nothing to offer. No personality, no hobbies, no interests, no contributions, nothing. They'll make all these claims about how they care about people, unlike those damn dirty libs, but I say, let's be real: you don't care about fat people's health. You don't care about the women being raped by refugees. You certainly don't care about children for any of the multitude of reason you pretend to care about children (education, health care, protecting them from the gays, protecting them from the trans, COVID lockdowns, etc). Nobody is buying your bullshit pretending to care. Do you know why? Because we know how people who actually care about other people act, and it's nothing like the way you act. They cry about free speech, but let's be real: they wish they could be obnoxious assholes but absolutely fear the consequences. They like to boast how they grew up watching B&B, South Park, WWF/WCW, and the like, and yet every single time they're asked how they'd fix the West, it's all the most basic bitch social conservative/cultural puritan shit imaginable. We went from Beavis and Butthead trying to score with college sluts to millennial "men" trying to go "trvdpilled," like what the fuck is this shit? We went from George Carlin (props to the self-hating anon who posted that based skit) to fucking SJW ownage compilations? Is TikTok cringe? Sure, but your wojaks and pepes and what not aren't even close to being better; Gen X gave us The Simpsons/KOTH/B&B/South Park, and millennials have given us what, exactly? Elliot Rodger's real problem wasn't his misogyny, it's that he was a fucking millennial like all the others. Minassian? Millennial. Tarrant? Millennial. Millennials like to talk about boomers and zoomers, but look at all the SHIT that's come from your generation: incels, femcels, SJWs, idpol, the systematic destruction of every IP with endless nostalgiatard reboots, remakes, etc; you turned literature into a total joke (everything has to be le woke YA or le based poor man's Infinite Jest), you simped for the worst aspects of gaming and burned everyone else out on it that they had no choice BUT to go woke, you spent decades whining about boomers killing the world only to simp for them en masse during COVID-time. They like to pretend their surrogate fathers (tell me how you're admitting your father was right about how much of a loser you were without admitting...) are these paragons of masculinity, but they chimp out when you remind them with facts like that Biden grew up as a tradcath middle-class football playing chad in Pennsylvania while Trump grew up as a godless underachieving, son of a millionaire in the most Jewish (!!!!) part of New York. And they even literally thought outing Biden's son as a dude who does lots of drugs and gets lots of pussy would somehow harm Biden. You could ask what planet they live on, but like I said, they don't have any principles: as long as it pisses off somebody, that's all they care about. It's why I laugh when people try to call them fascists and Nazis: bitch, the only thing they're conquering is their local McDonalds! And because of their failure to launch, Millennials (not all millennials are Idpoltards, but all Idpoltards are millennials) have seized control of youth culture in a way that even the Boomers didn't manage. Millennials are existing within and dominating teen spaces. They are always there and will not fuck off. And why? Because you said it yourself: they can't get over high school. It's why kids all left comics for manga, while all the adults are making cringey videos like "Superhero Comics Are For Men" and coming up with Comicsgate. It's why kids are playing games like GTA V with literal anal sex scenes, while adults are too busy clutching pearls over a slightly off-color joke in a YA book that would've fit right as home on an episode of Bojack Horseman. Millennials knew the Iraq/Afghan wars were total bullshit, but enlisted anyway. Try getting a zoomer to die for Israel/boomers/whoever today - that's the ONLY reason the military went woke: it's because everyone else fucking knows the score. Same reason the NFL/NBA went woke: nobody cares anymore. Sports as a whole are on the decline because it's basically a handful of big markets and a bunch of glorified farm teams in every league, and the woke shit is a Hail Mary to try to get kids to watch, 'cause out of touch boomers think a bunch of blue checkmarks = youth culture.

We're literally at the point that millennials are going transgenerational, pretending to be other generations entirely, at least online, because even they can't stand themselves. I know I'd hate it too if all my generation ever contributed was Rupi Kaur and fucking wojaks. The fact that Sally fucking Rooney is being called the voice of your generation....but then again, it sorta fits, considering how effeminate millennials are: imagine believing literal gossip sites like Kiwi Farms and pencil neck geek hugboxes like imageboards are the last vestige of the old internet. Imagine actually trying to gatekeep the internet, when it was literally created for everybody, not for a bunch of behind the times faggots who can't get over the fact no one wants to read NIGGERKIKETRANNY every fucking other post.

2028. That's when Gen Z hits voting age. That's when it's curtains out for millennials. No great art, no great literature, no great cinema. Say what you want about boomers, but at least people still remember dad rock. Imagine being a generation that's so forgettable, even silents have had more of an impact.

>>24267

Imagine being such a fucking goof that you're intimidated by literal kids in the first place.

No, this isn't my first time on imageboards you silly goose.

I just wanna say as the OP, the responses to my post kinda went off topic. But that's ok.
The point I'm saying is that the long held belief of "youth is innocence/fragility" is emasculating the youth. People complain about how elderly are treated as withered up dead flowers yet they do the same to teens and vice arians without a second thought. They think acting like another obnoxious parent is good for young adults. Any nuance or wanton of independence is sern as disrespect/rebellion. Yet, the elders wanna complain about how young people are supposedly passive and lazy?
You cannot have it both ways.
But I think God made a mistake creating a childhood stage in humans.

Ironically, it's the other way around. Adults like to blame the current youth for all the world's problems while indulging in the same products that kids enjoy.
Whenever people talk about moral decay, they always blame the youth. Despite the fact that adults have been creating and indulging vices for years, painting the world in their own flavors of degeneracy, they crucify 10 year olds for occasional mild cussing or jacking off.d

Hence the whole concept of 'normies,' which are somehow both rootless cosmopolitan, drooling retard NPCs that can't do fuck all AND super giga mega Chads and Stacies who run the world and are seemingly masterful sociopaths out to keep (insert group here) down. I see it all the time online: grown men playing with kids' toys (video games/comic books), grown men watching men old enough to be their sons/grandsons playing kids games (pro sports) bitching about how "KIDS THESE DAYS" have made them all "woke n' sheeeeit" rather than just accept they've grown out of them. They like to pretend soyboy consoomers live vicariously through product ("don't ask questions, just consoom product") and yet what got them "into" politics? They couldn't consoom product anymore! It wasn't anything ACTUALLY important, they just couldn't play with their toys anymore in good faith! These dorks talk about how great capitalism is, and when amoral companies work within the confines of capitalism to maximize profit, suddenly they're evil and out to destroy the West, as if these faggots wouldn't have come up with lootboxes and overpriced DLC if they were in charge. Yeah, let's triumph capitalism while deliberately handicapping how much we could make. "Get woke, go broke" is such a cope because the vast majority of people don't give a fuck about political autism like "woke/anti-woke" because to them, it's all about simply having fun with friends and family, and this all leads to what I've said on 8kun's doomer board, that it's all a bunch of suburbanite dorks who didn't get enough attention from Mommy and Daddy so they try to be as inflammatory as possible to get attention. It's why I laugh when I see hot takes online about "liberals are X" or "conservatives are Y" when the vast majority on both sides are likely just 9-5 working mediocre at best wagies who are just trying to brighten their ho-hum lives with a little illusion. Oh sure, you have the one percent of true believers, but I guarantee that ninety nine percent of them are just trying to fuck and have a social life. After all, Carlin said it best about pro-lifers for example: they're the people you wouldn't want to fuck anyway!

If people just chilled out, stopped letting their feelings be hurt and in general lived and let live then this wouldn't be a problem. there are haters tho. even for folks who have never experienced oppression or real trauma based on who/what they are, a lot join stupid political movements because it's acceptance and social elevation of some kind; I'd say it's less of a youth problem and more of a human problem.

>>24562
People are addicted to indignation.
Why else do crimes and scandals make the front page or are the general TV discussion?
Most adult entertainment is just fictional characters creating problems before the world and the other characters have to stop them.
People are so addicted to indignation, that they think conflict/suffering is the fundamental key to character.
>Hard times makes strong.mem
>No pain no gain
>When life gives you lemons, make lemonade

People often forget that conflict/suffering does alot of damage. They only look at the very few success stories about celebrities whom were born and raised in ghettos or survived cancer.
What people don't understand is that conflict/suffering doesn't make people golden. People whom mature from suffering had a strong support system.
Most victims of conflict end up as shut-ins or bitter sociopaths.

>Whenever people talk about moral decay, they always blame the youth. Despite the fact that adults have been creating and indulging vices for years, painting the world in their own flavors of degeneracy
It's definately a two way street, and ultimately the miral decay of the youth falls under the prior generations responsibilities as they were the ones responsible for raising them.

When the current generation grows up and has to live with the new youth I'm sure they will blame the kids of "today" rather than accepting responsibility for their part. Moral decay is the result of not accepting responsibility for ones own actions. And unfortunately it is the youth who must act to reverse.

And that's my point, right there. People seem to sweep under the rug that Millennials were the ones who were caught into bullshit like reality TV, mirroring degenerate personified minstrel act rappers/popstars, hyperconsumerism, hedonism and shit that (seemed) more callous and indulgent than what I've witnessed from the Boomers and Zoomers that I've personally known. It was millennials that pioneered the woke shit, it's always a millennial who goes around shooting up schools and yoga studios, it's always a millennial who comes up with the try-est of tryhard hot takes about (insert group here) to justify doing nothing with their lives. It's also the millennials who killed pop culture and the internet, turning everything into a milquetoast at best retread or reboot and turning the internet into an insane asylum where, unless you want sports highlights, there's literally nothing to do anymore unless you prefer the company of batshit insane retards sperging out over the stupidest shit imaginable. And it's funny that millennials insist they never had it good; motherfucker, you at least grew up when the going was even somewhat good (the nineties that you'd later take credit for from Gen X/boomers who created everything you loved about it - seriously, what have millennials created?); what does Gen Z get? Hunter Thompson said it best in pic related:

>Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed.

And yet millennials be like: dude, why are zoomers so silly lol. It wasn't until the rise of the woke when most of these same kids began to veil their dramatic Cluster B tendencies under the guise of "hahaha yeah we are the most empathetic generation evaarrrrr!!1111" and bullshit faux-virtue signaling. Same bullshit, under a different skin/pretense. I mean, come the fuck on, look at the people who come up with the hot takes I mention, about saving the white race or dismantling the patriarchy or whatever. Take a good, hard look at them. Do you honestly believe any of them give a fuck about those things? Do you honestly think that? These people are going to end up suicide statistics one day and it's a serious problem when they're being held up as surrogate parent figures. Its also why they lash out and call you a lib/chud/etc when you strip away the ideological melodrama and call them what they are: boomerlennial faggots and future suicide statistics. I take no pleasure in them killing themselves, of course, but let's be honest: they're pretty much SOL. But hey, it was all worth it, right? Being based and owning random people...excuse me, I mean LIBS online?

That's why I think innocence is a terrible metric pushed onto the young.
My moral take is this: if kids want to smoke and fuck, let them.
Any consequences is on them.
Instead of trying to scare children away from worldly vices, train them to enjoy said vices properly.
Childhood is very short. Adulthood is eternal. It makes no sense trying to euphemise the world to children when they will grow up to indulge in vices.
But what's even worse is that society tries to discourage cynicism and stoicism in youth.
Hell nah!
If a boy wants to write dark somber poetry in his daily journal, let him.
If a girl prefers fashion over silly tea parties, let her.
Children desire the adult life. After all, childhood is short.
This modern philosophy of childhood as Eden had made the west contemptuous and frightened of adulthood.
People treat growing up as a punishment rather than opportunity.
Adults always complain about how kids "have it easier" just because they don't pay bills.
Adults forget about the bullies and having to ask to use the restroom, and not having any money to go out with friends and the rejection from your crush for being too dorky.

I especially hate how adults always portray children/prepubescence as some cartoon wonderland. It's no wonder why adults are trying to justify bullying/teasing because they've been desensitized by slapstick comedy movies.
Adults get offended by kids whom hate being talked to like cartoon characters.

I find the premise of becoming an 8 year old again and being forced to go to school as about the most horrifying thing imaginable. I'm relatively sure when you die that's the end of your consciousness forever, but the idea of reincarnation still unnerves me sometimes.

>>24702

>I find the premise of becoming an 8 year old again and being forced to go to school as about the most horrifying thing imaginable.

I can understand why you'd think that, but I'd love to be a fly on the wall seeing some wingcuck goof have to. I'd love to see how they spin their boring, milquetoast education somehow as a white supremacist/Judeo-Bolshevik plot this time 'round.

>>24702
The reason why most adults say childhood is better is because most people suck at adulting.

Adulthood is sold as an bohemian big boys club where it's big money and big houses and big genitals and fast cars.

So people fall for the college trap, the marriage trap, and the rags-to-riches trap.

"Play now, pay later", rather than "pay now, play later."

And when they get burned by their primal materialistic ambitions, they start whining about how adulting is too hard.


Adults whom forgo marriage, college , and entrepreneurship are often the least debt-ridden. These kinds of adults are living off the land, growing their own food, making their own furniture/machines.

Unfortunately, since the western is modernized and relied on colonialism, trades and self-sustennance are seen as for losers.

>>24722

>Adulthood is sold as an bohemian big boys club where it's big money and big houses and big genitals and fast cars.

So it's like WCW as Steve Austin put it?

>Where the big boys play with each other!

Makes a lotta sense.

>>24756
What's WCW and who's Steve Austin?

But adulthood is more like middle/high school where people yearn for hedonism but they're not "cool/hip" enough to fulfill their sinful desires.

>>24758

You're not aware of pro wrestling? Stone Cold Steve Austin and WCW?

>>24758
>where people yearn for hedonism but they're not "cool/hip" enough to fulfill their sinful desires
Correct. The idea that it's a "devil's bargain" is not actually a warning but a misleading sales pitch. You don't just go "give in" and sacrifice your morals, it's a real fucking chore. A lot of people never accept the reality that "partying" and screwing around just aren't economical in the way the media presents them. I see this every time I go out to bars (which I did again last night, hence why I'm thinking about it), people pay out the ass for the privilege of standing around awkwardly with a drink in their hand and trying to look like they're having fun enough that some chubby girl they happen to be next to on the dance floor might feel comfortable rubbing against them for a minute.

If you pay attention, it's really hard to imagine a lot of people are hooking up. I'd bet that these try-hard regulars "pull" less than one time out of ten, and at great cost. Yet, a lot of people refuse to accept this and keep going with this media-driven meme that a man can adequately fill his sex life with one night stands (a character might say "I'm tired of sleeping with someone different each night, I want something real!") They come up with such obnoxious copes, too. So often you go with someone who *totally* scores every other time but this one time that you're with them they just happen to be in an above-it-all mood and are going to just sneer at everyone since sex isn't good enough for them. It's pretty much all about playing along with a myth.

I think that truly growing up requires accepting the reality that a lot of this stuff is pretty mediocre and oversold. It's not glamorous sin, it's just another way for adults to throw money around for an evening.

>>24791
Maybe that's why adults like to beat up on children for having any genuine fun.
Because grown up me cannot have any adrenaline rush, you don't deserve any either.

I honestly believe that alot of our moral obsession over young people is just copium. That's why adults like to come up with massive copies about the "virtues" of being older.

"At least you're not as quick to drink yourself to death because your body cannot take it anymore."

Meanwhike, people over 55 be drinking themselves to death every other day.

Adults are just achy-jointed, grey haired, liver-spotted teenagers.

And it's becoming more clear with last few generations.

>>24791
Also:
>people pay out the ass for the privilege of standing around awkwardly with a drink in their hand and trying to look like they're having fun enough that some chubby girl they happen to be next to on the dance floor might feel comfortable rubbing against them for a minute

If those chubby beauties are naked and glazed in baby oil, count me in.

>>24796
Unfortunately, they are not. Women (where I live) often dress worse at the club than they do going to the grocery store, they have this really sloppy look with a black top and jean shorts and some random shit thrown in like nets. Must be some kind of trend.

>>24797
That's because those women know that make sexuality doesn't obsess over fashion too much. In fact, alot of men are turned on more by a little sloppiness.
But that's only for sex.
It's different for romance.

Besides, who even goes out to party anymore?
Everyone always be webcamming/VR porn these days.

>>24798
I agree with the general concept but this particular look actually grinds my gears. It's simultaneously a slut virtue signal and patently unsexy. Pick one, for fuck's sake.
>Besides, who even goes out to party anymore?
>Everyone always be webcamming/VR porn these days.
Yeah this is sort of what I'm saying. You're not going to find particularly fun or agreeable people at clubs, just people that are into the whole "grinding" thing.

>>24801
>Yeah this is sort of what I'm saying. You're not going to find particularly fun or agreeable people at clubs, just people that are into the whole "grinding" thing.
The main reason for parties is an opportunity to have sex.

Alot of men attend parties and conventions in hope of some opportune prime pussy.

Women attend parties to be seen and adored.

Why else do we have the cheesy dating culture? Why else do we have chivalry?

Heterosexual romance is mutual narcissism.

It's no wonder why homosexuality bis becoming more acceptable, because straights cannot get theirs.

In fact, homosexuality was mostly straight folks unable to score with the opposite sex anyway.

>>24807

>Heterosexual romance is mutual narcissism.

All romance is, by that metric. Homosexuals are just boring, mundane and fucked as heteros are. Trans people are just as much the same as cis, and so on, blah blah blah. We're all human beings in the end.

Just blind people.

if there is such thing as reincarnation, I dont wanna come back as a human ever again.

Nope.

Even if God Himself promises that I will never suffer from poverty, slavery, disease, etc again.

I may not, but someone else will.
How can we truly enjoy human life when it comes at the expense of others?

All the luxuries enjoyed by any class of people have always been at the cost of exploiting other classes.

I would rather be an astral being roaming the cosmos, enjoying the wonders of thousands of stars and planets.

The pleasures of human existence are nice but sirely limited. The only thing that motivates humans is imagination.

We still yearn to go to the stars and we still have so far to go.

If there is such thing as reincarnation, I want to be an astral being.

okay!

>>25797

From what I've gathered from heavy use of psychedelics and other drugs as well as watching interviews of people who've experienced NDE's that thing you said about being an astral being is something that will happen however from what I understand being in that plane of 'existence' or whatever you wanna call it will eventually become ummmm I dunno boring? It's really hard to explain but you will eventually long for the human experience and will come back as someone else or as I have seen it you can relive this same life but with some adjustments. It's really hard to explain and at the end of it all it doesn't really matter. Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to myself....

>>25874
>Being am astral being roaming the cosmos will bevome boring.

Perhaps. But it will be far more comforting kind of boring. Choosing to reincarnate as my current human self "with some adjustments" will also get boring, but the boredom will be far more destructive.

The irony here is spaces created for adults by adults typically get invaded by teens, we can see this phenomena in bars and social clubs where teens will often use fake IDs to enter, even chan oriented sites where the majority of the users are typically 25+ are filled with teens.

So glad I came across this post, I've been saying this shit for years now but the vast majority of people are too simple minded to think this abstractly. I'm 26 and I'm already hearing people from my own generation shitting on generation alpha who are just barely, at the latest, 10 years old, yet somehow the hypocrisy is lost on them. They can't seem to think back into the not so distant past and remember how everything the adults of our childhood were saying about us when we were kids is now being directed at the kids of today by those very same (now grown up) kids, it burns a hole in my chest just hearing it. It's the absolute pinnacle of human stupidity and arrogance.
>God forbid kids should like horror, cuss words, porn, or different ethnicities. God forbid kids should point out the absurdities of the adult world.
Spot on, it's almost like everyone just grew up and forgot how they were when they were children.

>>25886
why use 25+ as the minimum age for imageboards?

Also underages sneaking into clubs are a minoroty compared to the latter.

Also chans were originally teens just goofing off without any political implications but those teens grew up.

Also alot of those "teens" on chans are just failed adults.

we went from Millennials to Gen Z to Gen Alpha.

In five years Gen Beta will be blamed.
In ten, it will be Gen Gamma.

And all the while peoppe will become increasingly self absorbed in their cultural prime.

I went onto 4chan's /pw/ board and posted about the match ECW had between Beulah McGillicutty and Bill Alfonzo. I pointed out how it would be seen as woke today because Beulah got the clean pin on Bill. He put her over, big time. And what was the response? A bunch of millennials whining with their usual buzzwords. A few managed to actually contribute to the discussion, but it only proved my point. We have surrendered the asylum to millennial idpol faggots who think everything is problematic/woke. Literally EVERYTHING millennials "love" about the 90s/early 2000s would be rejected by them if they debuted today. Mike Judge and the pair behind South Park would be selling meat out of trucks with Bischoff if they just tried to get their foot in the door today.
