The primary complaints about Gen Z ultimately boil down to "They refuse to work shitty jobs for sh*t pay" and "They're too nice to people who are different". Which says just as much about the quality of the older generations as the quality of the new one.
I'm always yammering on here about what it's going to take to turn this human catastrophe around, but sometimes I think it might turn out that all that needs to happen is for all us old a**holes to age out and leave the world in better hands than our own.
