Yeah, and they still get extremely mad when you remind them of their behavior. Already had the “presentism” card pulled on me a couple times. Like holy shit, 1994 isn’t prehistory.
But about the Gen Z kids… when my niece told me a kid at her school (apparently known as a Rogan fan) started an NFT club, I just sat there and stared at the wall for a minute or two. I guess we are reaping what youtube fascists had sown circa 2016 with the UPPITY SJW DESTROYED COMPILATION #243, which a teacher friend of mine (now retired) said was spreading through teenage boys like a mind virus. They spent weeks playing a game of cat and mouse with the “subscribe to pewdiepie” bullshit, amplified by the then-nascent wannabe slaver MrBeast.
I’m reminded of that poll from a few years ago where the #1 most desired career for Chinese kids was “astronaut”, while the same for American kids was “youtuber”.
