It was the social programming. I remember the MTV years.

RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE
Blame society for not telling uninformed children that these studies are worthless.

I don't even know why there are fields like gender diversity. At best the graduates get a token job and they end up earning less then the cleaning lady.

As soon as a new crisis strikes, their token jobs will be the very first to be cut.

As a transwoman who's interested in the subject matter, I couldn't tell you what gender studies majors do. I think you write long form shit posts and buzzfeed articles.

Anyone have a guess as to where we are right now?
Right at the beginning of the Kali Yuga.

Is the utility of a philosopher, say Aristotle, less than that of a butthole wiper?

Market value isn't the only measure of worth.

A butthole wiper (which I will be getting 60/hr for) has far more utility than any intellectual masterbator, yes.

The level of autism in this thread is a little overwhelming even for Project 1999.

Re: the "strong men create..." post.

As someone who works with Boomers and Gen X-ers and Milennials as colleagues, and iGen and Gen Z as 'clients', I can tell you that with all the focus on all this anti-Boomer brew-ha-ha, anti-Milennial this-n-that, we're really missing what's happening with the youth... which is alarming. Not that these discussions aren't important, but we don't have them in a vacuum.

[FWIW these statistics are coming from the 2nd largest school district in my state]. Suicide rate (ideation with unsuccessful action, thankfully) at my affluent, 30% white school in Microsoft country was over 10% in the 7th grade ALONE. Reported alcohol and nicotine use ages 11-15 is over double what it was at my school, same school district, when I was a student. College attendance is nearly 100%, though, so everything's FIIIINE, right?! All this nonsense bickering and blaming is having disastrous implications on anyone who will, one day, be a 'twentysomething' and a 'boomer-ager'. Boomer, Gen-X, Milennial - doesn't matter. These kids are not being raised right. It's everyone's fault. And, it doesn't bode well for 2040.
