Something poppin' in my head (Terrified of the current Youth)

So ... today is one of those days where I feel like having any time for any kind of activity outside of my home costs me dearly. I mean, I went to see that Joker movie that everyone's been so negative about, with a friend ... and that whole topic that I have been building in my head is just poof gone now.

But I guess this is a nice segue to yet get into it.
But ... uhm. That ... "Legend of the Frozen Vagina" thing ... when I first tried to write about it somehow got onto some lengthy tangent about the youth of today. I mean, I suppose it makes sense. It's not like they have much of a brain to do any kind of complex thought of their own with.


Today I figured that I could have written things along the lines of ... don't get laid with anyone you have to convince yourself to get laid with. It's not worth it. Like ... what's the best case scenario? In my opinion: That it's not going to work out (after the fact). Like else - you probably try to be in a relationship where either one wants to get something out of it - and you probably don't want to waste your time becoming dependent on someone you'll later want to leave.

But that's beside the point. But ... I guess it all still starts with "the youth" somehow. My youth. Or more so: My generation.


During my internship today I had some time to just blanks around blankmindedly - and with the recent things I've written about still fresh on my mind - I came to expand on formulating 'my understanding' a little more. Like, all these little blips of impressions that somehow shaped my conscious interactions with the world around me - in as far as they help explain the world we live in today.

And it starts with ... to put it as an assumption: The Antichrist roughly knowing the timeframe to prepare for things to get critical for him. Maybe me. Who knows? So, he eventually started to develop a social network of sorts; Focussed on "the youth". My generation ... give or take. It was a brand new world after all ... and I'd argue that he didn't do so well when it came to things such as entertainment. But as this new generation grew older ... roughly around the time the Matrix movies hit the big screen ... there was a more 'down to the ground' understanding of "what's cool" - and from some brainstorming came concepts that eventually ... still influence our cultures today. But that's also only the half of it.
I would argue that ... as an Antichristian youth you had the world laid out before you. Doors opened. So, they probably also received some good advice, to take work seriously - while somehow still proliferating a very "work sucks, I wanna be a thug"-esque attitude outwardly. The greater consequence of this would be that my generation has pretty much been ... left out. In all things where they had the influence to promote their own.
The upside: We'd get stories from perspectives that would otherwise be inaccessible to these large scale productions. The downside: Yea, they've been stuck in this juvenile sense of "what's cool" ever since ... and I don't feel like I need to comment on it all that much.

Well ... my generation. I think the only place where it really "made it" was on YouTube. The downside of it all: "We" showed them how to do it - and now ... they're ... abusing it.

However ... they've established a very successful political ... err ... propaganda thing. Which might be as good for them as it gets, because ... when it comes to telling stories and producing fiction ... this new young generation is just ... fried. My opinion.


I mean. We've had stories - and the things that my generation, those of it, drew from it is just ... dumber than that. Pew pew and explosion; "Badassness". From it came I'd say ... this whole "new Generation" idea associated with the Star Wars sequels. (And I still don't believe that Clone Wars was/is as good/successful, really, as it's made out to be!). Which is basically just like a dogwhistle to get rid of everyone who might disagree with them. But so you have people's take on a thing that they don't really understand. You know, like ... a copy of a copy. And the same would happen again and again ... and now this new Generation ... it's all just somehow broken down into ... a wild psychotic fever dream.

And ironically that seems to be what finally makes them susceptible to fascism. Like, when teabagging IRL were like the apex of modern cinema.

And even worse ... there also seems to be this huge dependence on influencer opinions. Like, nobody can even think for themselves anymore. So, no surprise the new Joker movie didn't do so great.
But yea, it's kindof a niche movie for a niche audience, also.

And money is part of the problem! I mean ... I know what it's like to not have the money, like for a rig, to play all those games or watch all those movies or shows that everyone is talking about. All that's left then is ... either competitive games you might just really suck at, or listening to people having an opinion for you.


I liked the new Joker movie. I mean, the singing was a little bad at times. It was annoying to hear these rough groungey voices ... go on for a while until some text became audible. Overall the delivery wasn't bad - though the startup was generally a bit jarring. I can see why people might get bored during this movie. It does essentially give the audience time to start talking - and that's ... like a bad thing. It usually occurs, I'd say, when someone doesn't understand what's going on.
Apart from that, the script was certainly good. The depiction of Arthur's mental health issues was pretty good - though the role of Harley and the "new Joker" was maybe too subtle for a normal audience to get behind. Overall, a lot of the movie is probably lost in this subtlety. Though I think that the general gist of it all is highlighted pretty well. But then it's like ... so, you get to that point where Arthur is sitting in the court and gets triggered so hard he becomes the Joker. The plot moves on and everyone is in "Popcorn Hollywood Movie Mode" - and then Arthur is like "Nah!". Yea, because Arthur is a good guy actually. He's the sympathetic, tragic hero - that everyone could get behind. He lost it, killed some people who ... we might say kinda had it coming ... but then what people made of it, made of him, he didn't want that. And that's why Harley left him. She wanted a psychopath with whom she could burn down the city. So yea, great movie!


So, I haven't really read or seen any actual reviews yet, but ... one doens't need Prophetic Vision to imagine what that might be coming down to.

In the meantime ... 'Marvel' sure doesn't stand for the same thing it used to stand for. Today it's more of a negative. And that would be one of the take-aways. They don't get it, they don't have it.

Well, I guess - it makes sense when you consider, that these would be the type of people that would consider Nazi Germany a success. Like ... they didn't see the end of the movie. But ... sure. If they knew then what they know now it would have been worse - and ... that's one reason why I think we shouldn't give them another shot at it.

I mean, it would fail some other way - for sure; But ... if you don't think that the last time was bad enough ... I think I can't help you!
So yea, the quicker the failure the better.


So, uh. Am I making sense here?
I understand that it's all ... pretty much just ... like a schizo-post.


As for what's real ... the question would be for us: How do we get out of it?
The thing is ... I find it ... sad, when people - "the kids these days" - or the youth more to the point, can't take anything seriously. If every other dipshit feels like they're the coolest "diggah" with the thickest nuts - and that being all there is. I mean, it's like life only exists on the Internet; And everything else is like a bad movie.
Naturally people don't like to think "work is cool". I don't expect kids to be hyped for slaving away until the day they die. But ... I recently had an encounter that perfectly encapsulates my observations on the matter so far: Person - early twenties - wants to learn something. I show them how to do it. They do it in a different way, mess up - and when I tell them as much they respond: I'm still learning; But also doesn't want to be called a noob. So - I tell them: If you want to learn, then do as I show you to do it. They respond: Yes - mingled with some excuses - and later they proceed to doing the thing not how I showed them; And then is like suprised that it didn't turno ut so great.

Maybe there's little hope to bringing this up, but ... this is bad! This is seriously bad! So, if ever I could help it, I'd want to.

In as far as we would seek to proliferate a healthy culture within our ranks - I for once want the cool kids to look after the loosers - so that they can become a little bit cooler. Cool enough at least. The guiding principle is not that our or their parents failed us/them - but that culture has become so vast and complex ... the occasional L is pretty much inevitable; So we have to help each other out.
Beyond that: When it comes to the crafts: Do as you're told! Or more like ... give it time. Say ... if you're a noob - do as you're told because you don't know enough to tell that "your way" is better. Once you know what you're doing you can do things your way, or if you have time to experiment - but don't reject the wisdom of the elders!
I mean ... uh, I get it. For once. Just today I was helping out with a task I hadn't really done before. And ... I struggled to do it right. But I wanted to prove myself, so I tried. The person instructing me kindly went out of their way to give me some hints. Narrating what they did to do it right. And ... at occasion I was tempted to not do it like they showed me - because ... it felt ... like cringe. Like, ... "I might do things the way they're done". But I realized that this reaction is silly, leaned into it, tried to do it as they did - and felt good about my work afterward.

Also, there is purpose to the routine. If you have a routine - you can tweak the result by tweaking your routine. But if you're routine is pure Chaos, there are just too many variables for you to accurately produce a result of a given quality.
Naturally ... people might think this is false. That for as long as you understand what the routine tries to accomplish, you're fine. Yea - that's correct. But eventually you have to discover that as you improve your own chaos - you arrive at the same things as you were told once. And what then? Be proud and do it different on purpose, or "take the L" (against the weight of experience) and learn?

Anyway - this whole "do as you're told" is also supposed to make it easier for those that are supposed to tell you how certain things go. And this isn't supposed to be a one-way road - everywhere. But ... I suppose I have to emphasize: don't ... like "think you're better just because you are you because let me tell you: You might be you, but I am I!" ... I mean ... don't neglect the knowledge that came before you!


"And if you feel like you're getting fucked, try putting on some lipstick!" - -_- ... no?
I mean, yea - assholes exist; But I hope not among our ranks. Except the kind that ... isn't "that kind" of an asshole.

Like, if someone tells you that you did something wrong ... isn't - I'd argue - usually ... meant as a personal insult. And while that person might seem like an asshole, they may have only been trying to help. Also: I personally would lose interest in giving hints if I see them constantly getting ignored. Which is like ... if I see potential, I might drop some more hints. You do - I might see something you could do better ... and tell you as much.

I would also extend preferencial treatment to those speaking in the native tongue. Which is easy here ... but maybe not everywhere.


Anyway. Thanks for reading!
