The firearm subs are the worst. "Did I do ok on my build"? threads are getting to me. And the "you have to buy import AK or spend $5k on your AR in order to be "accepted" in the online crowd. I'm convinced more than half don't even run their guns. They're just feel good submissions for the internet.
Guitar stuff is almost the same. Motorcycles as well. If you dig deep you'll find some useful tech but it's few and far between. It's like wearing the cool clothes in Jr. High to get accepted only it's transferred to social media now. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By QueenDeNile: Parenting has gone downhill since everyone has gotten smartphones. Kids need attention when they're kids and many kids can't compete with their parents phones. I see it in the classroom. I taught a boy-4th grade who bawled (tears and everything) 5 times in one day. The first time I gave him a hug and the second time I told the class the story about the little boy who cried wolf. He didn't get it. He needs parenting. The 22 in the Reddit post didn't get parenting either. It's going to wreak havoc. I'm very thankful I didn't have a smartphone when my kids were young. I hope I have the discipline to have left it in the other room but with my ADHD it is hard to say. It's not the phones/devices that's the problem, it's parents.... My buddy often makes snarky remarks that "Children are to be seen, not heard", where I think almost every generation has a way parents blow off parenting/raising their kids - where now the phones/devices, etc. is what parents throw at their kids so the can not be bothered with them. I think what, like Idk, back before modernization, people literally had their kids work on the property/farms - where there was no/low school time, so kids were kept busy with chores....As time went on, parents dumped their kids in the school systems, where at one point they still gave them chores (to help them learn home economics, helping out with the family, responsibility)....where now we're at an all-time low, where children are dumped in schools that are more hell-bent on "social engineering" and don't teach them shit, they are their over 8 hours wasting time and not learning shit, where they come home and parents throw devices/phones at them, instead of giving them chores/responstilbities, etc. With dual parents working too and/or self-absorbed with their fucked up lives (i.e. shacking up with Tom, Dick, Harry), you have kids really relying on phones/devices, social media; the break down of the family unit, and them turning into snowflakes/bums. |

This thread is sadly a reflection of what's going out there in our society now a days - whether you like Reddit or not. Lots of people now a days are Narcs and being told "self-love" - when all it is, is indulging in a selfish and self-absorbed lifestyle...where they are trying to figure out shit and/or eating their own. I decided not to have kids from when I was a Tween, because I grew up in a broken home, but I've often asked myself what purpose do I have in society and/or what is my contribution to this world, if I'm not gonna make the sacrifice to have and raise a family....which is a biological fact, which I also realize has resulted in me having a lot of crappy RLs, because like the guy that dissed her, I figured out long time ago that RLs have to go "somewhere", which is usually having kids and getting married - where you don't, it's not really gonna last. Kinda upset and disappointed that although I'm past childbearing years - where I thought I could find a guy my age that have no desire to have more kids, that I'm running into a lot of toxic morons with baggage  Maybe I need to do a Reddit thread about dating after childbearing years...

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Kharn: The world needs ditch diggers, plumbers, and welders. He can paint in his spare time. Kharn The shift I think has occurred where those career paths on average will generate more useable wealth than a bachelors degree outside STEM. I can only imagine how ugly student loan interest looks right now, combined with the fact the system refuses to allow it to be discharged in bankruptcy. Its not a popular opinion but our society rammed college down parents throats, down students throats, had the students ink the deal when they were barely adults. In the mean time the system changed the rules to the game with all sorts of ways to drive up college costs and close any escape on students, regardless of how the colleges promises for a career panned out. The government, education and finance needs called out on this fraud as step one to fix it. They did the same to women too. Plenty of time to start a career and start family. Then the student loans force a situation where an average woman faces a pinch point in time needed to start a healthy family or working to service debt that frankly a lot of them didnt really understand because of our piss poor public education system, the same system that pimped students into education debt by things I personally witnessed like repeated mass and individual meetings where staff ensured you would live like a pauper if you didnt sign on the line for college. We should bail out student loan debt to move these people forward in life. The public didnt commit the fraud and shouldnt pay for it. Let the endowment funds absorb most of the hit because they profited from it, take some out of the school administrator's pension funds because the lies they sold to students that at the time may or may not be minors, and let the banks take a loss on the rest. Students having their debt wiped do so agreeing they surrender any credentials they received as a result of the deal. Its not going to be pretty, but its one of the areas that the more I look at it needs lanced to start healing the country. A lot of people need a redo on life. We all can bebefit long term from that. |

But, thanks to parents coddling their kids; giving them shit they haven't earned; and, not instilling work ethic, values, etc. in them, kids think the world owes them something. 2nd side? IMO, thanks to the Globalists and all that, it's harder to get a start - much less have a future for a minute now. The cost of everything has gone up; a college degree is a joke; low wages/barely any benefits; corporations don't value employees and come up with tricks to make everyone essentially a "contract" employee that can be dropped at any time.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By jonny762: I have a friend who does hiring for a chain restaurant. They start kids in high school at $16.50/hr and they're always desperately looking for help. Lots of kids in their teens/20's like to lead their interview with a list of their personal problems that the company will "have" to deal with if they work there. Depression, anxiety, on the spectrum, "neuro divergent" (whatever the hell that is).. all the buzzwords. It's extremely common nowadays for these kids to have been led their whole lives to believe they are suffering from some sort of condition that is out of their control, and that everyone has to work around it because that's what's "fair". News flash - everyone has issues and the world doesn't owe you a living just for existing, and you're not worth what you think you are just because you've been told your whole life you're "special". And while I'm sure their teenage brains are just collapsing under the massive weight of responsibility that comes with having to work a part time job to pay for vapes and car insurance while living with mom and dad in the suburbs, I find it hard to sympathize. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By jonny762: Originally Posted By macman37: Kid probably leads every discussion with "I have clinical depression and am basically a piece of shit" and wonders why nobody wants to hire him. Some people are more comfortable than ever sharing every detail of their lives. Exactly. Lots of business played into the Victim Olympics because it created a huge profit motive for them. They were sold a crutch when parents and the system should have been saying yeah you got these challenges but you have to over come them, and you are strong enough to do it. The parents believed the lies and also got distracted by hardware and apps designed to exploit our biology to absorb as much human attention as possible leaving kids with parents that had a fraction of the time that their grandparents gave them. |

Reddit became a safe space for people who hate reality and are often not neurotypical. It’s a global cabal of people who often failed hard at some part of life and want to be told it’s not their fault.
Go look at the relationship subs or dead bedrooms if you want to see maximum simping while wondering why they failed… That said, it’s like watching a train wreck…you can’t look away. |

If you really really want to get infuriated and weep for the world at the same time, try reading /r/antiwork. Holy shite, there are 2.8M subscribers to that misery. The latest thread, titled "How did the boomers do it", leads off with "How did the boomers manage to work full-time jobs, often sticking with the same company for their entire careers, and seem relatively content doing it? Why does work suck so much more now? Or is it us?" Exec Summary: We (the boomers) only had to work half as hard, for four times the pay, to purchase items that cost a twentieth of what they do now. Also, capitalism. I'll give it one thing, it is very entertaining, in a morbid kind of way  "They were also less educated and no exposure to social media during their time. Meaning people were less informed of how bad companies were treating the workers. There was only newspaper, TV and radio which all can be controlled by the government." |

You can tell no woman actually made your post because it's so on the nose, it doesn't insult the man enough or denigrate him more, and the last bit is just to set the hook. Up to that, it's way too introspective for a woman in an internet circlejerk. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By StraightShootinGal: Lots of people now a days are Narcs and being told "self-love" - when all it is, is indulging in a selfish and self-absorbed lifestyle...where they are trying to figure out shit and/or eating their own. Good post but I like this part especially^ All the young people into self love, and with the lists of conditions like the OP screenshot, are setting themselves up for a rough time. If they are 20 and already needing to be coddled for a mental condition, imagine how hard working will be when they are 30, 40, 50. One preacher described it like a plate that is served hot. You eat the unpleasant vegetables first (working hard in 20s, try to mitigate those mental conditions by not acting weird at work ,etc) while the plate is still hot. Because they will be even more unpleasant if they are saved for later and eaten cold. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By JeepersCreepers: We need to start spanking kids again. 95% of people under 30 claim they have ADHD, depression, anxiety, bipolar. 90% of them just need a good ass whooping. If every teenager on America was required to complete the Warfighter Challenge as a condition of graduating we'd be unstoppable. |

Wants to get a masters degree when even a bachelors won't get them a sustainable job. The student loan fiasco in a nutshell.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Jambalaya: I tell my kids how much I hate my job all the time. They don't expect work to be fun. They know it will suck. But they also see me working every day so they know it's just something you have to do in order to live better than welfare trash. They won't be blindsided like this clown when they enter the workforce. That seems like it just sets them up with a bad attitude to start. I've always enjoyed working, I was trained to go out and be productive and then feel good about it, even the task on any particular day sucks. With my guys at work I don't let negativity creep in because once I start acting negative it spreads like wild fire. I may be having the worst day all year, but I can't let my guys know that, I'll still go buy them coffee and tell them to keep it up. A job well done should feel good, even when the work doesn't. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By sitdwnandhngon: It's just a massive site of so many subs that you can really get lost in it. Best to just seek out a handful of subs on topics that interest you and subscribe to them, then your front page will only be stuff that you actually care about. The help, news and politics subs are all pretty bad. Trade and hobby specific subs are usually really good though. This. r/scams has decent info and is useful in a "learn from the mistakes of others" kind of way. Unfortunately r/dementia has been useful recently. |

Using logic it’s easy to make progressives eat their own. The right does not have any sort of dominance on logic. I despise progressive republicans just as much as progressive democrats. The more they fight each other, the less free time they have doing actual damage to the American way of life. The left doesn’t have any sort of dominance on progressivism. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Heartbreaker1373: Also: they/them got an art degree and are surprised they/them can't get a job in that field? lmfao Also in general, you can't really limit your search to locally, guessing dumbass doesn't want to move out of mommy and daddy's house? AI is going to kill need for artists, why pay thousands for art when your AI can crank out original works you design for free ? Dude could paint houses though, that’s a actual today career, just requires sweat. |
