In all seriousness, I would say I am a communist - I believe in a free market economy, and would say I am more a Libertarian.

You do know that communism makes facism look a picnic when it comes to genocide?

Yeah maybe so, it does seem incredibly polarised and tribal over there

It definitely comes across that way to me.

Not with AI around the corner to do the work for everyone.

Oh dear, that was a typo ! I meant to say I am NOT a communist, hence why I believe in a free market economy. :laugh:

Now most are selling their bodies online or living alone with their cats.

What they realy want is to have a family they can nurture. They want a man who provides security and in return, she will look after him and the family. Used to be a fair trade, until they let the ugly, angry, envious feminists on the television.

It's leftie politics that destroyed women's role in nature.

Men are fine. We'll always find something to do. We can just put the playstation on and be happy.

I controversially will say that I think some of the feminists in the Media definitely have encouraged this weird rivalry/hatred between Gen-Z men & women to a point.

It's not to say that men are angels (not by a long shot,) but the Media definitely has gone through a period of trying to tell young women that young men are these nefarious creeps, which is what I like to call a grain of truth, but extremely exaggerated to make it seem to women that nearly every guy is a monster.

On the flipside, I do also think that Incel culture rising in popularity isn't going to solve the misgivings that young women are feeling about young men currently in general. Which these Incels have got to own their problems and try to get help.

Because obviously the Human race is in a really bad way if we keep encouraging the younger generations into fearing each other.

I don't think we're at risk of generations not working, I think younger generations just appreciate a better work-life balance. I subscribe to the idea that you work to live, not the other way around. I might be seen as unambitious because I am not climbing some corporate ladder, but I have a low mortgage, have loads of free time, have 3-4 holidays a year seeing the world and exploring new places. I enjoy my life immensely. Most of my family have died before the age of 60, including my father. I'm not of the idea I should be busting my ***** to build a career just to die before I can reap the rewards. I'm reaping the rewards as I go. Life is too short, and I firmly believe that's what younger generations believe too.

You have an ignore button. You are able to use it if you wanted to.

Functions like blocking and ignoring people on the Internet hasn't helped younger generations either imo.

My main reason for believing that is they're not ready for the real world where they won't be in an echo chamber anymore, and they'll have to hear opinions that they might not like, which you need to develop a thick skin for that kind of thing from an early age.

I'm sure our dear leaders will have a plan for that within the next decade.

I personally think that's fair.

I'm just a talentless and lazy ****er unfortunately.:laugh:

Oh no, I totally agree with that but you also need money to be able to travel etc. I'm 100% on board with the work to live mantra :laugh:
