It's quite fascinating to observe it play out, in my opinion. Humanity's (or at least the past few generations') seemingly intrinsic need to embrace an overconsumption-based culture has had some very strange and contradictory effects on society. What I find mildly amusing is that no one (or very few) ever seems to want to blame themselves for the state they're in. Social media/technology addiction, laziness, an obsession with the lives of the ultrawealthy, and a continuous rise in the cost of living—and those are just a few things—have created this bizarre culture of narcissism, overconsumption, and victimization. To be blunt, now they're all getting bit in the ass! So many individuals within the 20-35+ age range are broke, can't find employment, or have given up looking for opportunities. There are always opportunities if you look hard enough. For the record, I don't want any of this to sound like a generalization in any way. I know this is not the case for all, but what I described above is quite rampant today.
