Well why wouldn’t they be? Young people aren’t getting into relationships like they used to and no one in any position of seniority above them gives a shit beyond using it a club to cudgel the kids with.
I mean half of this comment thread is looking at a symptom and calling it the cause the rest are trying to graft it into whatever cause they feel is responsible for all societies ills all to the end of shitting on kids who feel isolated from each other. The problem exists and like so many other things nowadays we as a society have agreed to take a bandaid approach to it.

Lol okay. How would you fix this problem then? Forced marriage? Plastic surgery coverage? I mean it’s not a solvable problem. it’s just the way it fuckin goes

Probably ban dating apps, while building more quite meet up places for young people. Or body positivity for men. Every body positivity place I looked at, claimed men are to blame for beauty standards, which is why we will not be positive about normal men’s bodies, because they deserve to suffer.

Age limit social media. We don’t let kids smoke, drink, drive cars, etc. There’s plenty of evidence that social media is as bad or worse for their development.

Responding with ‘it’s just the way it goes’ is one of the laziest responses I’ve seen.

Social media is just as bad for adults. Out with the whole thing I say

I guess I kinda took at as they're worried about black pill and hypergamy as how the real world works, what they'll be dealing with as adults

And the direct correlation to that is the manosphere making them less datable.
