Reddit has appropriated NEETs, I mean it was only matter of time but god damn they seem to just make being a jobless loser a "haha quirky I hate my family and took their money wow" kinda personality instead of treating it as a "well fuck nobody's hiring my ass and I can't afford college or training" kinda thing that it is.
That's a good point. I'd guess NEETdom in and of itself isn't uncommon these days and is even a sort of necessary purgatory phase in many young adults' lives. We have higher numbers of college/university graduates than before but fewer graduate/entry-level professional roles for them in the workforce. Kids fresh out of their education spend months, even years, applying for job after job and getting knocked back each time. You're told that you need experience to get a certain job, but how are you going to get that experience if no-one's going to employ you without it? Or you're told that you were a great candidate for the role, but sorry, there was a better one than you, nothing you can do about it, better luck next time. It's not too surprising that some people just decide, nope, there's no future out there waiting for them.
But yeah, couldn't they come up with a better subculture than memes about pathetic wagecucks slaving away to support their lifestyle? Come on, man, become the next Dostoevsky or craft the manifesto for NEETist philosophy, or something.
Ok so since this is kinda like a general thread for NEETS and the like, I think it'd be okay for me to share some interesting guy I found awhile ago while browsing around for hikikomori information
The system in the USA might be broken but is in not the same way the perpetual victims like to portray it as. For so many people is so easy to just not work and mooch from their parents who can afford it or the dole which is enoughtto survive and pay for comfort to just "meh" at life.
For a lazy person Neeting under those conditions becomes the path of least resistance rather than to go out and face even the minimum amount of stress, and that option would simply not be there in a place that is really fucked and in a serious economic downturn, in that case either you hustle or starve, but either way, neetdom is not very doable. the point here is that working for most NEETs is still an issue of will and motivation , two things that are not factors at play when survival is a real stake.
It also sucks that people are underpaid and work is not as respected, blah blah, those are concerns for people who work in the first place. Neets

Neets don't pursue education and don't pursue work, they don't even try, they live on other people's dime because is easier and they get comfortable doing it.
I feel like people constantly asigning working class woes to neets is miles off. Even if someone offered a job to a Neet they would just make a bullshit excuse to not take it because they don't want to, they could have study opportunities, they don't take them. "if i am not offered a 200k job right off the bat and the world doesn't kiss my ass then i am not going to do anything and i deserve other people paying for my tendies" is a childish excuse, the real question is why so many people are still mentally children and even proud of it, this is a phenomenon on rich nations where unemployment rates are not even that high, if anything these young men have grown coddled and unprepared to even the bare minimum requirements for independance.
When the discussion involves black people who live off the dole, don't work and don't study then is not about NEETs, is about Niggers being niggers, when is upper class white kids then "oh noes, we live in a society, poor things" but no, bottom line is still niggers, it always is niggers., neet is another way of saying nigger.

Yeah, from what I've dug he's poetic and stuff. I'm guessing he was a literature or English person, although it'd probably take a while to actually find proof of that with how much he's made and how many of the videos can get to hours long, and how even with the shorter videos there's a good bit of rambling.
seriously, like how people flip out on fast food employees. Their still people man, and shit a job's a job. Don't expect someone who's there all day getting paid shit to not put pickles on your burger, it's not the end of the world. Is it bull shit- yeah a little but no need to flip out on them or look down on someone trying to make a legit paycheck
That's always pissed me off as well. Like yeah, it's annoying, but there's way bigger problems in the world. Society would probably be in a much better place if people were more empathetic towards people who are at least trying to do something with their lives.
You reminded me of some guy I know who flipped his shit over a messed up order and said he wanted to go back in and assault the "retards" inside for not doing their job right. Now keep in mind this guy is practically a NEET but goes to school, buys all his games with his parents' money and acts like it was his hard earned cash. When people told him to calm down and not go full retard over a hamburger, he replied with "don't use that starving African shit on me!"
Might have something to do with my experience or me being generally optimistic, but I have a hard time believing NEETs, in their stereotypical form, exist. My mind is blown every time I meet one.
First, having someone without a job is usually beneficial to any household. Taking care of chores, grabbing bills, going grocery shopping and all that shit makes lives of everyone who is employed in the house trillion times easier. I know some people might argue that housewife/housekeeper are occupations, but they aren't really considered ones where I live and being one is considered "useless" and "lazy". I always assumed that NEET means everyone who can be officially employed or officially study, but they don't. Housekeepers do neither, so I have a hard time telling housekeeper and NEET apart. First time I heard the term, I assumed it's a mockery of vaguely "useless" individuals that aren't actually useless.
With that out of the way, I genuinely don't get how can someone sit home all day, look at chores neglected by working members of the household, and not wanting to do anything about them. I guess they enjoy living in filth.
Second, and this point bothers me even more, lack of official schedules and all the stress that comes from employment/education is extremely liberating, probably a privilege, that opens up a whole set of opportunities. It amazes me how many people out there aren't spending that time on mastering some skills or hobbies, self-studying, exploring the world, these sorts of things. Is it even possible to genuinely do nothing? I'm not buying the depression, executive dysfunction or any other mental condition excuse. Mental illness can definitely be crippling, that's why some end up getting disability, but either way lack of activity is the literal opposite of the therapy and sitting all day on one's ass won't fix their brain nor their lives. Hell, one can still do and learn a fuck ton by just sitting on their ass every day, the joy of modern technologies and Internet, they literally have no excuses anymore.

As soon as I got of legal age I worked 3 years in the absolutely shittiest, lowest paid job that existed within the boundaries of law. It was so shitty that every of my peers when asked if they worked in the same position say they either quit within a few weeks or weren't dumm enough to take it in the first place. I worked in my local area and for years after I quit everyone I saw doing it were gypsies or adult brown people.
When I left high school I took a job at an amusement park and got tasked tending the ride that was the absolutely most stressful and shitty ride to operate that every of my coworkers (and me) loathed, working full time. The next season I joined the amusement park again while studying at uni and against my wishes got stationed at the same fucking ride that every of my coworkers (and me) loathed.
What the fuck is "glamour"?
I worked because I had to, because it gave me experience for future jobs and because I contributed to something.
I loath nothing more than these incel types of NEETs who take pride in not working and say it's their way of revolting against women and society.

Every teenager should work a high stress, low paying stint at some trash establishment as a first job, just so they could respect how others like them are busy busting their balls to provide quality service to your lardass during holiday season.
Sometimes I wonder what percentage of internet content is made by NEETs. It worries me, thinking how many children are exposed to the thoughts of NEETs. It spreads the cancer.

Damn, I had no idea that there was an actual community for this kind of shit. I've never understood how people like this can contently sit and parasitically feed off of society while actual contributing members pay taxes to keep them comfortable. Like I totally understand losing your job due to the current pandemic, or being in a situation where you're unable to work due to health or something, but every person I've met in situations like that hates that they don't currently work and is at least trying to get back onto their feet. These fuckers however, are happy to just sit back and do nothing like the worthless sacks of shit they are. I'd be lying if I said that seeing shit like this doesn't piss me the fuck off.

It's been a while since I posted, but the NEET sub seems to have had a shift in what content is posted. The more obvious schizoids don't get as many upvotes as they used to, so more well written posts get attention. The NEET sub has been expanding quite a bit, so I'm guessing that's why more of them are literate.
There's even a few posts like this one that share some decent advice.
There still are the especially pathetic posters though, so here's some of the more notable ones.
I feel fairly bad for them, they definitely have some undiagnosed disorders.
Fuck this guy tho. The comments are especially entitled.
I don't know why these people are so proud of being wastes of skin. Like it or not, wageslavery is essential. Eventually the money will run dry and you either adapt or die lol.
The money thread is kind of interesting. There's nothing exceptional, but it gives you a view into how they budget.
This post's like a year old, but it's the most autistic by far lol. I feel bad for the poor girl who matched with this guy, though. I can't imagine it was a fun chat.
