Good to know. I can think of a couple of people I know that may be like you guys and just keeping it to themselves for now. I'm kind of the same in some ways. It's lonely, and I sure could use my older siblings and their friends to show up and speak out like the brutal punks they used to be ;)

Exactly this. They know deep down, but they are working really hard to try and maintain the bubble the guy in the video talks about. It's fingers in the ears, singing lalalalalala.

Love of the bubble is what motivates denial. Gen Z and Millennials didn't get the bubble. Boomers have the biggest bubble, but it's popping faster than for Gen X because they see their kids and grandkids, some peers, struggling and with no opportunities for income, housing, and healthcare. In my experience, if sleeping Gen Xers see this, they immediately call it personal failure. Sometimes they are worse about that than boomers.

It occurs to me.... the latchkey generation grew up practicing denial to cope with some of their realities as kids. This is part of what makes them tough, practical, and stoic though, which can be a major asset when it's time to deal with reality. Hope they break through soon.

59/60 is the age of the oldest Gen Xers right now. The youngest are about 44/45.

I'm Gen X and not a single Xer I know is awake. They have too much to lose still and are cozy in their nicely made beds... for now.

The economy is about to shake them awake though. I can see some of them being very susceptible to suicide, but some others will be fucking lions for change.

I'm a very young Xer (August 79) and my kids are Gen Z. My sister was born in 71 and her kid is Gen Z.

I do not personally know a single other Gen Xer that is awake. They are all focused on their careers and sports and still listen to MSM. I do think if they could wake the hell up, they could be a powerful force for change and leadership, especially the 50+ men. Looks like it's gonna be painful for them though.

Ha! He doesn't know he's the racist. He's also dumb. How are you gonna have lifeguards and nurses who can't speak English? That's next level DEI.

I did get fired from our pediatrician for rejecting varicella and HPV. They sent me an official reject letter and all. That was 2012ish. That's how long this has been going on.

This is the Hamas flag https://www.bigstockphoto.com/image-72444355/stock-photo-flag-of-hamas

And ignorant commentary like this is why I quit visiting citizen free press on 10/8/23.

Saw this in /all. I have experience. If he drinks or does any drugs, he has to stop because it causes major mood shifts. Peer support works. Look for a group called depression and bipolar support alliance.

May not be popular here, but micro dosing psylocibon works, too. You do not get high at all. It takes some time, but I was able to even get off of meds completely and I don't micro dose any more (it's temporary).

Lastly, reduce stress as much as possible and recognize we live in a very toxic society that some are more effected by than others. Would be good to talk about this with him because the psych world tells you are crazy for things that may just be a reaction to living amongst crazy. If he can shift his mindset a bit, it can be healing in itself.

You're a good uncle.

I remember Shazaam and not Kazaam. I also remember the Mandela Effect always saying that Shazaam was the one that wasn't real.

Maybe I don't understand your comment, but are you saying the Mandela Effect used to say Kazaam wasn't real? That did not happen in my timeline.

I lost my shit early BECAUSE sky News Australia was reporting this. The dumb shits in the comments are just too much for me to fucking comprehend.

Are the two outlets not linked?
