40+, barely millenial, here.

3 - That's really different issues. Going to the bathroom to pull the pud is nothing new. To force you to cope with it, your sex drive is just insane, until 20+. If I wasn't physically exhausted, or sick, I doubt I managed 8 waking hours, between about 13 and 20. 15-16, it was more like 10-15 times a day, most of it with no access to any visual or auditory aids. It eases off, later.

While porn is a problem, it appears to me to mostly be a symptom of the breakdown between the sexes, and general emasculation, rather than a cause. That is to say, it appears as a superior product to nothing, but an inferior product to a sexual relationship, long-term physical pursuit, or long-term creative pursuit (both of which would often taken on by young men to improve their luck with the ladies). I have noticed, FI, that kids into sports are much more into it for the sport, these days, if they're not gunning for a scholarship.

4 - Also nothing new. They do it for attention, and were doing it 20-30 years ago, too. The high rate of apparent identity issues, the LGBT agenda helps make worse, is worrying, though. The gullible adolescents don't realize how silly it really is, on one level (rebellious trendy behavior), or destructive, on others.

5 - I've seen surveys to this effect, and it is interesting. Not necessarily good for society in the short term, but I think it will help in the long run.

6 - As a millennial, this started before y'all, but is getting worse. I hope the Gini coefficient wins out over bread and circuses sooner, rather than later.

7 - Again, this began before you, but is now worse. I have had to learn many basic life skills at 25+, and still learning things my ancestors had mastered by their teens. Gen Xers were mostly left to their own devices, and learned enough. Boomers, if not taught, were in environments that encouraged them to try and fail, even when it cost their parents, neighbors, school, etc.. My dad's childhood stories of getting into, learning about, and modifying electronics and mechanical things are situations that would have been verboten, outside of our home, when I was kid...and, that's only gotten worse.

What I have noticed, though, probably related to #1, more than anything, is zoomers generally lacking any interest, curiosity, or critical thinking, as workers.

8 - Yup. This is bad, and there are numerous causes. If you're willing to stop with short form content, though, you can improve. You're going to have to want to do it, because it won't feel good, for awhile (that's pretty much what you are training). But, if you have the intellectual capacity for delayed gratification, you're not permanently screwed.

9 - Histrionic and narcissistic traits have been on the rise since the Boomers. Has it reached a peak? Maybe, maybe not. Social media has made it worse, for sure, though.

10 - This one will blow up. The will to live, get along with each other, and raise kids (not just make them), are tied to religion. Regardless of whether any religion is correct or not, a lack of it will doom a society. They can try to downregulate some genes, but it will just remove necessary motivation.
