Yes, America is a 3rd world country now

Another Thiel-Musk goo-guzzler network term I see constantly on the timeline is '3rd worldist / ism', which they literally only use when it comes to critics of Israel (lol), similar to how they only invoke Western Civ to justify our failed interventions in the M-E -- they don't know and aren't interested in history, or art, or culture.

Then right as the right-wing morons started beating the audience over the head with 3rd world this and 3rd world that... America itself *became* a textbook 3rd world country, with homeless everywhere, planes falling out of the sky, elite debacles that don't even get acknowledged (let alone fixed), and cringing slaves worshiping Dear Leader (who now resembles a corpse), and all other kinds of dysfunction and corruption.

Somehow all of these symptoms went right over their heads, though (these slopagandists are not the most insightful), and they continued their campaign regardless -- and always in the wrong direction, too, just demanding endless loyalty to their cult, despite them not doing anything good for anyone in the society.

'If you don't support us harder, then you're just a resentful 3rd-worldist, whose pathetic mindset is utterly incompatible with the values of our civilized elite 1st world country...'

*trips over the corpse of a homeless man* 

*a bridge collapses somewhere*

*8th plane crash of the year*

*raped by inflation; too much of a slave to even admit it*

Sorry, dork: we *are* the 3rd world now!

And these copers going on about My Glorious Ancestors this and My Glorious Ancestors that sound exactly like some generic Arab immigrant shouting about the peak of his homeland thousands of years ago under the Abbasid Caliphate, unlike its present day shithole status.

'N-nah, bro, that could never happen here...' 

Right as it happened here, lol -- they thought mediocrity, stagnation, and collapse were related to genes, rather than social cohesion, so now that America is behaving exactly like those places, it's too shattering of their world-view, too brain-breaking and suicide-inducing, so they literally cannot even admit it. Instead they just block it out, and accept the pain like good slaves. That's why the triumphalism always has an undertone of severe desperation.

If the state of society in 2026 has these people this desperate, and in an arms race against reality itself (which they won't win), then I can't even begin to imagine what things will be like in the 2030s and 2040s, as things *really* start to break down. 

Get a grip, copers!  

Are we experiencing a crisis of conformity?

(The answer is yes.)

I was thinking a little bit about the state of the online world, including some places I used to frequent, and I think a lot of it goes to show that -- contrary to the confused conservative perspective -- Millennials and Zoomers (and especially Millennials!) are some of the most seethingly intolerant generations in world history.

When you look at their online groups (they literally do not leave the house), what you see is the exact opposite of the autistic / retarded notion that they're all far too accepting, their brains are too open, etc due to being spoonfed diversity propaganda in schools and in the workplace.

Basically, they can't tolerate anyone slightly different from them -- if male, they can't tolerate women (and vice versa). If on the right, they can't tolerate leftists. And the process goes on further and further from there: if they're part of the Thiel / Musk coom-slurper network, for example, they can't allow  anyone who is also right-wing but has more populist leanings.

Eventually you get a teeny-tiny echo-chamber of a bunch of people aggressively agreeing with each other (when they're not witch-hunting the few remaining people with independent opinions, who are not in 100% lockstep agreement, with one aggressive purity-test after another), which is both oppressively conformist and totally sterile.

It ties into the broader situation I discussed in some of my previous posts, comparing America with Japan, where if you look around you or compare with the past (or your parents' / other gens' experiences of it), you get the sense that people today are far more rigidly controlling, self-conscious, incapable of going with the flow, identical to each other, and generic than basically they have ever been, perhaps in human history. 

And this is why our society has become incapable of creative anything inspirational or interesting -- it's like a war against individuality, where the few who are still to some degree willing to be authentic and original get targeted by the seethingly mediocre echo-chamber-dwellers (again, just cuz they aggressively spout HR talking points does not mean they really agree with them, or that it translates into their behavior).

Millennial public temper tantrums

I know I promised not to keep the generational warfare going, but in this case it's just an accurate objective description rather than emotional rant. You may have noticed by now that a whole generation of 30s and 40 year olds is throwing public temper tantrums, and you're not allowed to criticize it or suggest that maybe the problem lies with them: fortunately I have this platform. This is purely Millennial hyper-competitiveness and entitlement, which they started and which nobody else before them (and hopefully after) ever did.

The way it works is that they're too coddled to have any real achievements to justify their inflated egos, and too sheltered to know how to relate to a crowd of random strangers who don't owe them anything or have a pre-existing relationship with them (like their indulgent helicopter parents). So instead of doing anything praise-worthy to win the approval of the audience, they drip venom about how 'I don't care what you think of me' (people who say this are always the *most* hyper-sensitive to what others think, not to mention anti-social). Then when this doesn't earn them a trophy, they stoop to demanding approval through threats of self-harm, hectoring, lecturing, preening, tantrums and rants, and so on and so forth.

'I'm not going to do anything to deserve it, but you'll still praise me anyway-- and if you don't, then get ready because the mother of all meltdowns is coming' is the intended message. It's just such anti-social psycho behavior.

Obviously, as I said before, this type of stuff did NOT exist before them among adults. No Boomer or Gen-Xer would have behaved like this, and if this kind of stuff had happened even 20 years ago, it would've been as so shameful that the screeching meltdown-thrower would have had to kill themselves out of sheer embarrassment -- imagine being an 11 yr old child, in the body of an adult, lol. 

However thanks to the MASSIVE overproduction of power-trippers, this behavior is now tolerated and frequent, rather than ostracized and rare. 

Aside from lowering the standards of adult behavior to make way for the Power-Tripper Generation, this is also the inevitable result of locking an entire cohort (now two cohorts) of young people inside the house, and never to allowing them to go outside or socialize freely or spend time in environments which do not have explicitly articulated / rigidly enforced rules. Their brains simply never learn how to socialize with strangers. Then they confuse what works with their parents (whining and meltdowns) with what works with other people (where these things just get you dismissed). Naturally this results in a very painful clash with reality.

When you are allowed to go outside and play with friends, you learn very quickly that acting like a freak means nobody will ever interact with you, and just gets you ostracized -- so you try to contribute something, rather than demand others adjust to you. It's most children should learn by the age of 7. But since these people were never allowed to learn such simple rules, the lessons are new to them (in their 30s and 40s), when it's far too late to change. 

Parents -- let your kids go outside!

The dumbest platform

Twitter is basically a gold mine of retardation, and you can literally collect endless cases of just how insane, wrong, and retarded they are about everything. There are more examples I could give, but I want to list some of the most obvious ones, because as far as I know nobody else has done. Also, because it'll help counter-act their insane view of themselves as occupying prime digital real estate or whatever. 

They have a major habit of writing dismissive / smug / cynical sounding posts, where they basically attempt to make some normal behavior come across as beneath them, inferior, irrational etc... only for you to realize that the writer has no clue WTF is going on. Sometimes they get the behavior they're describing precisely backwards. It's like reading a Martian attempting to pierce together human social norms.

They'll come up with convoluted explanations for things that have very simple causes, while thinking that the more complexity they add, the more accurate the final conclusion becomes -- just the opposite, lol. It becomes worthless.

They'll write completely fabricated / totally wrong BS / fan fic in a tone of such smug superiority that it makes it sound as if God Himself had told them personally. Or as if their view were so true that it didn't even require evidence or reasoning to justify (often the mistakes are high school level). This seems to be the result of grade-inflated college degrees. 

They'll attribute some grand long-term cause (like Evolution, Darwin, Female Nature, etc) to things that only started ten or maybe fifteen years ago at the latest. Sometimes they'll even go further and claim that some behavior that is obviously not fitness-enhancing or is maybe even totally destructive is UM AKSHUALLY fitness-enhancing, complete with some retarded made-up vignette of hunter-gatherer life.

They'll problematize and pathologize all kinds of things that are totally normal and natural and helpful, while turning a blind eye or even being in favor of things that are wicked and obviously sick. Sometimes they seem to be judging healthy behavior by the standards of sickness / mental-illness. 

In many cases the discrepancy between their own self-descriptions and the reality is so severe and jarring that you can only really understand what they're saying by flipping the meaning of the words around -- it's like they're so wrong that they almost get it right (almost). Then anyone who points this out has to deal with the inevitable temper tantrum (from some thin-skinned dork who can't handle reality, lol). 

They all seem to think that they belong to a highly exclusive club which the rest of us jealous inferiors are too low status, unintelligent, poor, and so on, to join -- they don't realize the whole world is laughing at them, and nobody takes their lame fan-fic seriously. 

Small update

With a somewhat obligatory reference at the outset.

No, don't be scared, I'm not planning anything crazy. I'm talking about getting in shape mentally. I also want to clean this place up, so that I can eventually show it to my friends and family. And I want to make it more accessible to normies, less infuriating, etc.

In that spirit, I'd like to announce that my previous post was the last one I'll ever write about Millennials. By now the basic patterns are well-established, and are hopefully becoming clear to most people: ego inflation, delusions of grandeur, temper tantrums, blaming Zoomers for the things *they* started, shut-in syndrome / autism / mid-life crisis due to never going outside, witch-hunts, and so on and so forth.

Most of the things you see on social media are variations on those patterns, and it's not as interesting to document the 1134th time they occur, compared to pointing it out the first time. So unless something new comes up that is worth addressing specifically, that content will take a back seat. If you're curious, you can go back and find the posts. 

Plus I'd also like to bury the hatchet, move on with life (hopefully to more interesting things), and that's impossible when you're in warfare mode all the time. And it puts other people on guard, too. So that's it.

As for the new directions and stuff, I'm weary of announcing anything specifically, but other the next few years I plan on studying more math, since that's the area where I'm (relatively) weak. Specifically, differential equations, but all kinds of other stuff too, depending on what piques my interest. Now that I'm in my 20s, I want to take advantage and learn difficult stuff, rather than wait for later, since it would be a lot harder then. So the volume of posts may decrease.

All for now.
