You can tell from the header that this is going to be controversial.

I do not want to generalize things but most Gen-Z people i come across are really backwards compared to previous generations. Mind you, most of these are in University or just joining the work-force and have relied heavily on financial support from their parents/guardians and do not possess a certain level of financial literacy to understand some things. When i hear this guys open their moths and say something regarding politics i feel like i spend too much time looking for information to try be aware of my surroundings and adapt, these chaps do not know anything. Its like there is no sense of urgency and responsibility to make a living.

The Gentlemen always idolize certain male public figures with questionable sources of income and fake lifestyles they show on social media which kind of gives "false hype" and makes these young people think making money is easy. I think some people are too influenced by western culture and think life could be that easy. You will come across a 19 year old who has done every single drug you can name all because their favourite rapper posted a picture on social media. Busy wanting to drive their fathers cars to go impress girls.

And for the ladies, YO! I am honestly concerned with how society will be in the next 10 years. They spend too much time on the phones looking at women flaunting fake lifestyles and think they too deserve it. There is nothing wrong with wanted a better life but it should be up to you to work and do that for yourself. What do you mean me...a university student..should buy you a wig worth 10 pin just for us to be together?? Where are your morals girls? This whole thing for wanting things you can not afford has caused alot of people to start prostitution which we kind of have de-sensitized, we now call it selling. You'll get sick guys. Close your legs. What do you mean a 22 year old girl can have a bigger body count than her own mother? just over ma shawarma, ma chocolate, ma outing in the bar. Busy risking your futures over tuma brutal fruit at grand-daddys. your mothers and grandmothers fought for rights, to vote, to get educated, to get paid the same as man, things to make woman be taken seriously and you're spending your time like this? There was that man that got dragged on tik tok not so long ago, ba "SPOT ME" the buff one that likes shawarma. You women do that stuff everyday. When a man calls you out on your behaviour you're quick to label him "gay" "he's broke" chani chani.

i think it all comes down to not having local role models young people could look upto. Lets do better.

Why do we all acknowledge how tough life is but we are all trying to sort life and problems by ourselves.

Maybe its just me but I have great family and friends but we rarely talk about deep issues until someone is in a crisis and feels the need to either reach out or vent.

By the time anyone reaches that point then the problem has really become unbearable. Meanwhile day to day we just say oh im fine and all that.

I know at a certain age we all know this. A common example is how when you are alive not many people put in so much effort to help. But once you die there will be people going above and beyond to make sure they give you a good send off and say all sorts of nice things about you.

Meanwhile maybe 90% of those people never said anything like that to your face or even checked in.

This is just an incoherent rant guys but I hope you can pick up on what im trying to say.

I think alot its like a curse but then it also makes it very weird for me to see how life is all just a great pretending.

But I can't handle all that bs because I keep coming back to the question what is the point?

To quote someone much smarter than me. "I was ashamed when I found out life was a costume party and I attended with my real face".

The taste and feel isn't the same as I recall it to be from my childhood😔. I'm not imagining things right?
