I didn't mean to argue about anything. Just a comment with my thoughts.

So if gen z was in the place of boomers, they would have done differently?

I don't think so. Each person has similar needs. Safety and power comes from money, and money comes from careers or inheritance.

It doesn't matter which year you are born. You all join the circus going on here on earth. And you can only influence your little bit of a single corporation.

If you are a politician, you influence laws, but those laws are often easily bypassed and exploited for profit.

So I wouldn't blame generations of people for anything they did. Just like I don't blame Gen Z for being how they are. They are a product of their environment, same as everyone before them.

Every young person goes through this. They want to change the shitty world and have energy for it when they are young, but no power, money or influence whatsoever.

Later in life, you have power, money and influence but no energy.

Lols.

Also every generation think they are special and better than previous generations. But you need to have been around for a few generations to see that.

Actually gen z is the first generation I've seen that blames boomers for everything, and have a us vs them mentality, probably created by social media.

This is a hobby project, but it's nice to see work going on. You would need some Linux Torvalds of Browsers to get something that can compete with Firefox or Chrome though...

America is my favorite developing country.

Any time now, they will invent public transport.

No I can't cite any studies. :) Lol.

We are not pointless at all, and I'm sorry you feel that way. What I wrote has nothing to do with theism or deitys or cults. :)

The media loves to make single people heroes because it's easier to sell.

I think in reality, nobody makes anything alone.

I saw what you wrote before you deleted it, but I don't agree it's racist to point out primitive behavior.

But today almost everything is called racist. Could it be because people are supposed to self censor and not criticize obvious wrong behavior? Hmm.

Today it's everywhere so hard to miss. :) Used to be a conspiracy theory when I was growing up.

I don't like listening to lies, and that's what marketing often is. Lies poisons your mind, specially if repeated often so the brain starts to get used to them.
