i think that's kind of one of the defining generational traits of gen z. the indirect consequence of growing up when society was switching paradigms meant basically an entire generation were raised to do things that stopped being a thing. it just led them to go insane on the internet because when they were young, every wise old person they could rely on IRL didn't have good advice about how the world worked anymore - but the internet had all sorts of useful advice and cheap free shit and the people who believed in bigfoot and flat earth were telling them about it.Yep, you basically realize that some people will never fire on all cylinders... their high school selves already were their peak performance level, which is pretty frightening to a smart teenager, which is why those tend to assume the optimistic stance: giving ALL adults the benefit of a doubt, because you have to rely on them for jobs, training and protection... that's actually a problem, now that you made me think about it, I'm not sure how many otherwise O.K teens who aren't slow in the minds, still don't make it because they're just stuck with chemtrail obsessed trailer trash for guidance... or outright troon worshsippers and the likes...
