I want to make sure I understand fully what you’re saying when you say that most Zoomers hate society. Does that mean that they do not see themselves as a part of something larger than themselves?
Ok then. Put another way: what motivates a Zoomer to take an action ie: go to school, go to work, help a friend, etc? And I guess you never actually answered my question of why you’re on GAW? Do you see a problem with the world? Or is this entertainment?
Zoomers are generally a lot less intrinsically motivated than other generations I've noticed. I think that's why everyone talks about being suicidal all the time. We're definitely more sensitive than our parents but with the same kind of nihilism, that life just sucks and there's no meaning to it. What motivates zoomers more than anything is probably sympathy and maybe guilt. Wanting to do the right thing to make others happy. That kind of thing.
I'm on GAW out of interest and also because I see a lot of problems with the world. It's interesting seeing what other people are saying about things.
Can I ask, what in your opinion do Zoomers think about the whole vax situation? Do they see it as something needed against covid, or something to be wary of? And are you aware of people in your group affected by any sudden or baffled deaths? TIA
Girls are all vaxxed, guys are maybe 60% vaxxed but there's been a lot of skepticism. Two of my cousins have heart problems now in their early 20s and a few people I know had parents who died from heart attacks since the pandemic.
I've got 5 frens with various heart issues now, from full blown heart attack, myocarditis and others with heart palpitations. Thanks for the reply, so around 40% of gen z'rs haven't on the male side, good to know.

Yeah that's pretty much accurate.

Yikes! to your first paragraph.
Good for you! to your second.
