I feel like we're all stuck in a movie where all the rich people live on some kind of floating island or satellite with everything they need to live well, and all of us have zero chance of going there (lemmy.world)

I have seen a few of these with similar story lines and realized we are living it right now. They have the best healthcare, the best food, the best everything and most of us are a few dollars from disaster. That scares some of us to death literally from all the stress it causes.

I believe it starts with Gen Z. Millennials are getting too comfortable, too safe, many have families and more to lose. Revolution is a game of young men. The problem is it requires a wise leader with vision, likely elder, manipulating and pulling the strings. And it's so hard to be heard nowadays. You'd basically need the movement to go viral.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
