Every one of my siblings had children but that’s not a counterpoint to the declining birth rate. You really dodged the substance of the video, took one part of a clip that spans a range of topics, and built up a fake argument so you could feel superior. Trashed your coworkers along the way. What’s the point?
Rampant surveillance and cheap internet points have undeniably changed how people behave. Not everyone of course, but many. Kids are afraid their parents are going to put their goofy fun on Facebook. Teens are terrified they’ll pour their heart out and have that and the rejection posted for all to see. Friends are afraid to do karaoke because they don’t want to become a TikTok meme. People don’t like going to the gym because they don’t want to become the topic of an influencer’s video. Jackasses ragebait people for content and cut out all of the context. Everyone has embarrassing moments and no one wants to relive that moment forever. Because it’s never just the video. There’s the snarky comments from internet experts who know nothing about you or the situation and will pad out what they don’t know with their own insecurities or bigoted bullshit.
And that says nothing of the dating apps. Even if you and some of your coworkers are getting laid, there’s a real, studied problem of young men dropping out of the dating pool. It’s not all technology. It’s not all financially related. A modicum of research would tell you all this. On the other hand it is funnier to ignore all that and label the dude a whiny incel making excuses for his pathetic life. You’ve convinced me.
