what went wrong with generation z?

[nebu]

or is there absolutely nothing wrong with most of it…?

 

[Dahaarkan]

Entertainment addiction.

 

[High Priestess Lydia]

-Passive parents who can't say "no"

-Lazy parents who neglect their children and let their kids spend too much time playing video games and on computer or watching tv

-No quality family time

-Even more indoctrination in school than the previous generations

-Too much emphasis on being weak, not being taught how to be strong

-Too much emphasis on feelings, rather than on reality

...to name a few things.

I think this is one of the biggest problems, as it supports a lot of the other negatives. The parents have basically set their kids up with a socially acceptable, yet highly addictive habit.

I cringe at toddlers who have been given an iPad to play on, knowing that their brain is being molded into the shape of an addict. I can relate to this myself, as my parents spoiled me out of misguided attempts to "love". Later in life, I had to basically teach myself to be an adult, although that cannot give me back the wasted childhood spent gaming.

A lot of the other poor behaviors one grows up with can be countered by exposure to reality itself, but our exposure to this is limited if we are stuck in a video game world, made worse by the injection of obvious propaganda.

On a side note, our exposure to movies, advertisements, and other media which attempts to present a false reality is actually very dangerous for that reason. People see how their favorite actor behaved, then they start to believe that those actions created a certain result, regardless of the truth.

Not that you don't already understand this, but I have to repeat it because it makes me rage. It's one of the things which often ruins the appeal of modern entertainment for me, because I feel like it is an assault on my mind.

Well I personally think we lack manners and morals because we were not taught how to behave.I personally have been told many times that I am being rude when I really didnt mean to be rude.
In the past people really cared about these things.They also taught kids many skills for example if you ask your mother she will tell you she could run a household when she was your age.
Now if you ask your grandmother she had children your age :lol:
In short we suck :lol:

One of the best things my parents did, was not have tv :lol: And we only played video games as a family, never one person alone. We rarely watched movies either. Maybe like 1 hour of recorded cartoons a week, if that.

Many of the negatives of Gen Z are just the negative side of Pluto in Sagittarius. Xenophilia and treachery towards one's own (Sagittarius does not see Cancer), dogmatism, excess combined with a religious inflexibility towards fun and letting loose outside, hypocrisy and 'sensitivity' (which comes out of thinking one is BORN holy and righteous)... problems with motor skills and fearing what is local as this relates to Gemini - car ownership has gone down for example, but obviously this also has a positive side in being conscious of nature. Travel culture, wracking up huge debts on a credit card just to brag on Instagram about where you went.

Another manifestation of this, some people can set up Onlyfans accounts and post all their nudes on there yet can't order something on the phone without going into mental terror (if we can characterize social media and telephones as a 'Gemini' thing, the thing involving tons of excess yet little communication or accountability involves no fear, yet talking to someone provokes panic).

Trying to obliterate everything that came before because "one knows better" and very rigid mentalities (fire trait, much like Boomers with Pluto in Leo), surface level belief to exhibit one's piety and cargo cult mentality without picking apart the details ("If I do x and y, my life will work out and I'm in luck").

Some of this is also influenced by the Pluto in Capricorn transit as well. Hence "bad bitch", "what is this person's value" and "I get my money anyway I know how" type culture, plus a lot of other things.

HPS Maxine said in 2006, 2007 that the greatest souls to build the return of the Antichrist were 'being reborn' during the second half of Pluto in Sagittarius. So there is a strongly positive mass side to this placement but it is going to take a while to manifest.

thanks karnonnos
thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks

i would put in the thread description
“without quoting the enemy directly or indirectly”
or something astronomically to answers

i know the importance in ages about pluto, but the impact that it brings on the individual being that way, I couldn't connect at that point

but what about gemini?
