>what, they wont work, marry or have kids?
>bring in the immigrants, they'll do it.

>>57177616
yes and no
you can be the best and get aborted, your environment killed you
you can only do what is possible

the main treat is the state

>>57177616
Try to be successful in an active volcano.

>>57177616
Really though, it's the internet and video games that did this. The timing fits perfectly.

>>57177720
no, it is socialism that did this

>>57177616
Yes, environment and genetics dictate your life success. Luck can play a role also.

Genetics dictate success

the way you respond to environment is governed by genetics

parents allowing you to live as a neet wretch is also genetics

>>57177720
this is true i learn english playing MMOs and later in life i use the internet to make money

>>57177616
I've spent all my life in a competition with the rest. Is it easy? No, it's stressful as fuck. Is it logical? Fuck no, after 32 years i finally understood this is just the byproduct of how my shitty ass family raised me. Is it healthy? Nope, but i don't poison people with my shit anymore.
Would i change anything tho? Nope, not even go back and do it all again, i have my xor card, my bags, millions at my disposal, im in my fucking prime

>YOU HAVE TO DRINK ALCOHOL OKAY…BECAUSE YOU JUST HAVE TO!!

My age group (xoomer for you fucking boomers) hates alcohol. Ages you faster, and makes you look like shit. We’re all unironically on the looksmaxxing wave. Sorry we don’t want to look like bloated miserable ugly middle managers at age 24

Reminder colty use to do gay4pay

>>57177616
Too broke for sex drive and alcohol sorry.

>>57177616
Not entirely, but to a large extent yes. Almost my entire family has fallen into various behavioral sinks and refuse to change anything about their environments to improve. I've tried to help two of them now and for the first one it's irrevocably ruined my relationship with him, and I'm giving up on the other early so that we can at least stay cordial. I never imagined that, after being asked for help, and providing help and encouragement, that I would be treated so bitterly and meanly. In both cases I wasn't enthusiastically positive about their parasocial relationships (youtube commentators and fox news hosts, respectively) and my god it was like I spat on their spouse.

Don't want that to be you? Construct for yourself a healthy environment. The first step is to remove advertising from your life to the maximum extent possible. The second is to get /fit/. The third is to accumulate wealth.

Zoomers are ageing worse than millennials though. There was literally an article about this a day or two ago.

>>57178692
Flattering but I've already put my glowing days behind me.

Haahahah

>>57178187
trying alcohol doesnt mean being a raging alcoholic retard

>>57178809
Thank you for the reply. I wish you personal clarity and power.

>>57178806
Because they are vaping

>>57177720
the huge drop starts at 2012, that's the first year when absolutely everyone was on facebook and had smartphone.

>>57178989
I mean it makes sense the phone is infinitely more stimulating and fun than all that shit in the OP

>>57177616
Environment actually has much to do with the kind of opportunities you get, even tho you're not limited to it.
Even more with how globalized life is right now.
even a 14 y/o in Nigeria can join in free to use like Beoble and farm rewards, get into web3 exchange for some other crypto currency tokens, and actually get their entry fee into markets.
So imo even tho environment might give you bonus, its your own capabilities which dettermine where the fuck you're actually ending.

>>57178133
Cringe.

>>57177616
Everything experiencing a massive dip in the OP isn't necessarily because of a lack of want but due to a lack of risk/reward balance. Your brain is primitive, it's not going to judge you for playing Civilisation for twelve hours instead of chasing pussy for that time. One of those is far more exhausting, requires far more effort.

It's a sad world we live in but 80% of people were destined for mediocrity either way, it's not like 2012 and the rise of soc media degenerated your average person. It just revealed who they always were. Evolved apes with a low risk tolerance and a high comfort preference.

sink in my room fu?

The driving one is weird to me, it seems like 50-70% of zoomers I know refuse to drive.

>>57179305
Why would they? People drove before to escape the boredom of their homes. Everything is at home now. Phones, games, ubereats, socializing online

>>57179305
They are not driving until they get their lambo. Similar to no sex before marriage

>>57177616

Bro has never played Candyland.

You can place any player anywhere on the map and start the game this way. Say this is where you were born in life, the closer to the top the closer you are to success.

But it doesn't matter. Anyone from the bottom can pick the icecream cone card and be sent to the top. Anyone from the top can pick the evil peppermint and be sent down to poverty hell.

>>57177616
well that's a depressing graph, other than for the reduction in drinking which is a good thing.

>>57177616

No. There have been a trillion-gazillion studies on this.

The #1 thing that determines success is how rich/wealthy your parents are. Mainly because they can connect you with other rich people and send you to ivy league schools where you can network and all of your friends will also be rich.

>>57177616
Honestly, people chose to live this way.
The market is just giving them what they want.

What's normal anyway? Nothing keeps me from going outside.

>>57177616
People will end up in the same socioeconomic class as their parents

>>57179305
cars are creepy to me. especially when people attach too much personality to them

>>57177720
Video games and porn for men.
Social Media and Tinder for women.

It's so over.
