This is the direct result of the modern day slave economy we live in.
Many still love to bash on the younger generations, saying they're lazy, or just don't want to work. Everything we've seen exposed over the last few years should be showing everyone that the current system we live in is unsustainable, and is just one massive demoralization campaign.
We are work slaves, whether you agree to that or not.
Bills, expenses, and just about everything we need in our daily lives greatly outpace the paying wages we see.
Would you stay motivated, knowing you cannot keep up, save money, while the gears continue to grind you down?
It's rare today to have a single income to keep you afloat in a decent way. People are working more hours, more days, etc... just to do what was done by a part time job 50 years ago.
It's the beast system.
We need to take down the entire system so we can get out lives back. Get more time to spend with our family. Remove the mountains of stress many have to deal with daily. Then you can throw in all the brainwashing, and mental manipulation you get hammered with daily. Your mind can only take so much.
I could go on and on about this, but we need to stop bashing the younger generations, saying it's all their fault, when you (not you, but a blanket statement) should know deep down that is not the case. Yes, some are a waste of oxygen, but they are still in the minority.
Well said!
And totally right.
If you are scrapping to survive but not actually surviving why bother?
I think this is why my daughter is similar to the original post. Not as old yet but the writings on the wall.
I question if her seeing both parents bust ass, and I mean bust ass while they were young and still struggle has made her think "why bother?"
This is exactly why i checked out of relationships. I never saw a happy couple in my childhood. Every hated their partner in my family and friend group and i never wanted to get with someone to just fake happiness and be miserable.
Yeap. I have a friend who has a 17 year old daughter. High anxiety about life.
She told her mum the reason she's stressing over exams / high grades is wanting to be a psychiatrist JUST to be able not to worry about putting food on the table. It's devastating
These children were not raised in God’s purpose. We have always been slaves of one kind or another. This is the secular lifestyle personified. What woman at 26 doesn’t want to be married creating a home? Sure women might say hell no but they’re usually ran thru whores.
And that's part of the problem too. Too many now chose careers over family and God. I don't put all the blame on them either, as you can connect that to what I said above.
What used to resemble a family, is now the kid's parents both working 40-60+ hours a week, and barely get the real connection they need to have with their kids, if they even have any.
We live in a sick sick world, and we need to get back to our lineage, what our lives are supposed to be.
There's nothing wrong with hard work. But there does need to be a balance in life so we don't lose sight on what Family really means.
At the end of the day, we live our lives by the dollar, and that needs to change too.
There is no option for balance, two spouses working full time plus is what is needed just to get the downpayment together for an entry level, very modest home.
It's truly sad. Many even start putting their 3 month old babies into full time daycare while they work. It really breaks my heart that this is a normal thing now. Can you imagine what happens in those daycares? It would be nonstop babies crying all day, needing their parents, and they probably only get the cold shoulder most the day. No wonder why we have so many people in this world that are mentally unstable. It all started at the very beginning.
Most men cannot afford to provide a home to a woman. When my grandfather got married he was a draftsman working in a project office on a big construction project. He was able to afford a ring, a wedding and to buy a home for about 2.1X his income. It was a nice semi detached house in a cul-de-sac with 3 bedrooms and a driveway. He and my grandma lived there for 50 years. This was in 1955 - there was still the last auspices of war time rationing in my country that year. I believe Bananas and certain tropical fruits and nuts were very hard to come by.
I live in a 2Mx5M tool shed I rent from a crooked Indian guy for cash. I had to do some work on it to make it habitable. Its cheaper than a room in a house share and nicer than living in my car. I drive a 17 year old car I just had to put a used engine in because the original blew up and I would be screwed if I didn't do all my own work and a good scrapyard to help me out.
I couldn't even afford a ring even if I did have a woman let alone any of the other stuff. I'm just on my own waiting until the globalists finally decide to kill us all or the race war comes.
What is insane to me is that I manage, I even manage to save something some months and I haven't gone hungry or cold. I have no idea how the normies are surviving except by loading up their credit cards.
God is protecting you, apparently. I work full-time, and my wife part-time. We rent, and probably will until the aftermath of the financial collapse settles. We get by, and even thrive a bit. We're autistic about managing our credit scores and never taking on more debt than we can handle. I look at yearly, quarterly, and monthly expenses + overhead and plan out accordingly. Thankfully, we can access really low interest debt and use it as a buffer to maintain our expenses while not suffering for want. It's like juggling a Jenga tower. But we manage.
You know what tended to motivate me? It was reading stories about people that overcame tremendous odds to survive, to make it despite their difficulties.
Every time I felt like quitting, I would think of those that survived the USS Indianapolis sinking or those who were forced to built the Trans Siberian Railroad, or of Shackleton's men trapped on the frozen island who never gave up.
Even the fantasy tales of my youth motivated me, like:
John Henry said to his captain, a man ain't nothing but a man, but before I let that steam drill beat me down, oh, I'll die with this hammer in my hand.
Growing up, when ever I expressed a difficulty, my father would always say, "But you can handle it can't you", and the answer would always be yup.
I memorized things like Tennyson's Ulysses, when I was young, and Act 3 Scene I of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.
Tennyson's Ulysses:
Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

This is it exactly. They’re demoralized by the slave system we live in. Totally normal for our generation unfortunately.
