I don't enjoy writing posts with this theme of vindictive anger. I know it will be misconstrued by some as just another internet rant. And I'm painfully aware that this anger says more about me and my own state of consciousness where I am in my own life right now rather than painting the bigger objective picture. I realize that my generation is just as much to blame, and is just as complicit in our predicament of global suffering. I will never resort to passively passing on the blame and responsibility for all the world's problems on others while sitting back passively and doing nothing to fix my own situation and play my role in helping others do the same. I just hope that by expressing this truth that many in my generation will resonate to, it will spark something. Something has to change in the way we view these problems. So hopefully these thoughts will act as a catalyzer for something. I wouldn't be writing about this if I wasn't conscious of the coming calamities, and our collective need to start making adequate preparations.

The point of this article is simply to illustrate the variety of ways that my "generation" is getting royally screwed over, and to highlight some of the most prolific abuses and injustices that everyone in my age-group is facing. These abuses are constantly being mocked and made fun of by many in the mainstream media, and this is a problem that really needs prompt redress.

I'm talking about the way that the Baby Boomer generation has completely fucked us and refuses to admit any responsibility for the mess that they have bequeathed as their legacy to the next generation. They hurl injurious insults at us, blaming us for not being more obedient and stoic sufferers of their utter stupidity, labeling us "entitled" and "lucky", claiming we have no right to complain when we seek redress for our grievances

They act all surprised when we get galvanized by a candidate like Bernie Sanders (who's an utter compromised piece of shit in my book despite the obvious truths that he at least has the public decency to address), calling us ass-holes for "Bernie or Bust" memes. They don't have the slightest shred of self-awareness...

They don't have a fucking clue.


But what gets me most upset of all is the prolific ignorance among my generation, because we simply cannot yet fathom or fully comprehend the sheer gargantuan scope and extent of the mess that has been left for us to clean up.

The following are all points I've spent countless hours trying to educate people my age about, and though I realize these points are slowly but surely sinking in the collective awareness of my peers, as people my age start to mature and figure out exactly what kind of a socio-political and economic landscape has been erected all around us in our upbringings without more so than a peep from the elder generations, I realize they still need to be driven home...

We're being trapped in the walls of a prison confine, the "Casino Gulag Society" as it has been called...

There are still many more lessons that we need to collectively realize if we are going to escape the absolute oblivion that awaits us if we do not get our shit together in a timely fashion...

Here's one thing I get really upset at my own generations when I need to deal with my peers.
Most of them still overwhelmingly have little to no experience dealing with cryptocurrency...
How easy would life be if everybody my age was completely connected through private cryptocurrency, and knew how to use it to conduct all of the affairs of daily life.

This really grinds my gear... Because of our yet lacking interest in these new technologies, we are still forced to resort to dealing with the traditional financial, legal and corporate systems, simply because we do not know how to use the now hundreds of viable alternatives that our (thank God) forward-thinking visionaries have created for us to follow the path of emancipation.


I just have one desire: to boycott as comprehensively and soon as possible every single Old-Order financial institution and mega corporation of this "Neo-Fuckery-Order" that is collectively responsible for consciously transmitting on to us the most outlandishly fucked up situation in recorded history.


What am I talking about? I'm talking about the completely irresponsible fiscal recklessness that the Baby Boomer generation voted for (and not even in the voting booth, but with their dollars), back when democracy still meant something... And even when there were obvious signs that this wasn't working and was creating a colossal mess, they still were not bothered to correct it when they still had the chance.

As long as everybody was making money, it was all fine and dandy for them. No questions were asked. No efforts to stop this madness... Heck, how many actively supported and championed racist and twisted ideologies like Reaganomics, Hyper-Financialization, Neoconservatism, Neoliberalism, The War on Drugs, the War on Terror...

What in the royal fuck was this generation thinking?

And I know what their excuse will be. "We didn't have the internet, we didn't have access to the information that you had."

Yeah, except that there were dudes and ladies since the 1960s (and really since for ever!) that we're warning you all about this shit and instead of doing a little bit of homework you just dismissed them as tin-foil quacks that should be locked up in the mad house... You fell for the mob mentality and acted out of pure greed and selfishness...

Now today while these 60 and 70 year-olds of the rapidly dissapearing and quasi-mythical urban legend of a "Middle-Class" sit in their big homes, with their mortgages and debts paid off, comfortably waiting for the Grim Reaper's visit while they continue to live out the rest of their lives safe in the knowledge that they will be dead and gone long before any of the shit that they created ever hits the fan, my generation is sweating bullets trying to figure out what in the Hell we are going to do to make it out of this mess without completely compromising our Souls to the Devil and turning to unfettered solipsistic existential individualistic materialism.

This is something that Baby Boomers from my parents' generation DO NOT understand, at least in any visible way.

Yeah I'm sure they know what they've done deep down inside; but they act like they are in complete denial about it in public!


They Fucked Up and They Need to Admit It Before They Go.

Deyum!


People my age get treated like second class citizens while our parents are still enjoying the royal treatment of the Old World.

And then they act oh-so-surprised and confused when they see us rebelling and wanting to drop out of university, default on our debts, become digital nomads, escape taxes, and get involved and participate in our own voluntarist projects in our own niche communities. They're still feeding us this utter-bullcrap of "you need to get a degree" and "you need to get a job", sending us like little lambs into the meat grinder...

It all boils down to this:

They actually believe that we are going to assume their liabilities and faithfully comply with the Social Contract that they passively watched get eviscerated before their very eyes, just because "it was easier to make money and take care of their own personal interests" than to actually sacrifice some of their comfort and their time to try and rectify and correct the underlying faults in the way society was being managed.

They still expect us to sacrifice our own happiness, our own passions, our dreams, our idealistic visions for a better future, just so that they can reach their late 80s and 90s and die without having to suffer any personal inconvenience and consequences for the recklessness of their generations' actions.

Did They Forget Something?

I'm here to tell these people: we're not gonna do it.

"Dear Baby Boomers. Go fuck yourselves." - Millenials


Short disclaimer: I know I'm generalizing and writing in an incendiary and provocative tone, but this is only to get this very important point across. I've seen absolutely 0 signs of any of these issues being discussed by Baby Boomers. My Dad has slowly come around to admitting some of this, and he confessed that his generation was a successfully duped one, and that had they known what they know now, would have done things completely differently. And that's all I want to hear, that's the only thing that we need. Is an honest apology from the previous generation to the new one and a commitment to try and cleaning up some of this mess before they all go!

"Dear next generation. We're sorry. We didn't know any better. We were young and reckless too, just like you guys are today, but we recognize that we fucked up. And now, let us at least try to be of service in helping you guys get on your own two feet and redesign society according to new rules. We're only human, but as humans, we recognize that our ways and methods aren't going to work in this world, and as such, we want to give your generation all the tools and resources we can so that you can create a better world for our grand children and great grand children to live in. We're sorry, but we can help you make it right. We want to fix our mistakes".

Is that really too much to ask? Maybe it is.


Before I continue with my main three points of contention with the current paradigmatic consciousness-grid, and why I am unequivocally proclaiming that I am done with this system that our parents perpetuated and intended to conscript us into in favoring of dedicating my life to the pursuit of the alternatives to this global monolith they have erected, I thought I would share the introductory passage of Carl Jung's The Alchemy of Anger, which is available in PDF form here.

Anger corresponds to the alchemical stage calcinatio and the element associated with it is fire. Calcinatio images are of fire and heat, which are associated with erotic love, as well as the suffering connected with primitive anger, fury and frustration, which are usually triggered in love relationships. The calcinatio represents being burned up or consumed by the fires of one's unmet desires, blocked instincts, passions and rages, in other words, one's own personal hell. If this intense affect can be endured, it can have a refining and consolidating effect, for it is also associated with the flames of the funeral pyre, which signify transformation.

In this psychic space the issue is not so much to “get the anger out” as it is to learn to trust oneself enough to be able to contain such powerful feelings. In rage lie the seeds of considerable strength of will and survival capacity. This rage is almost always relegated to the unconscious in childhood, so as not to displease the person who has evoked it by their failure to meet our needs, and thereby to lose what little we may have. If it is not brought to consciousness, experienced and resolved, it cannot do its work, which is usually to separate one from the parents. And by separate I do not mean to move out of the parent's house. I mean to grow up and live one's own life, not controlled by the parental complex. Beware! This is not as easy as it sounds! We may think we have grown up, but we are, most of us, living out of the wounds our parents gave us in ways we do not know about. There is an unconscious dimension to the mother and father which affects us far more powerfully than we can imagine. It is the work of analysis, dream work and psychotherapy to smoke this out.

The fire of the calcinatio is associated with purification and transformation. Hell fire is the punishment applied to those who are condemned at the “Last Judgment.” This is that aspect of the ego that is inflated, or over-identified with the Self, and uses the Self for personal pleasure or power. This is the aspect that has the fantasy of having everything we want: money, happiness, the perfect mate who meets all our needs. It is the “little king,” or the frustrated infant in us who wants what it wants and fully expects to get it (we sometimes call this “a sense of entitlement”).

There is nothing wrong with this fantasy in and of itself, because it is essentially a longing for a state of complete harmony with the Self. But if we have the childish demand that someone in the outer world must provide it, then of course that is impossible. The difficulty is to save this fantasy which brings life and to cut away the childish expectation. If the associated frustration can be consciously suffered, it is the agent that can burn away the childish innocence with its primitive desire and lead us to our Selves.

I'll let this sink in in relation to the meaning of this post. As a 22 year old living his first year financially independent from my parental units, I realize these feelings are developmental.
As I begin to conceive and dream of my path to freedom, fulfillment and self-actualization, I realize how much anger I still carry within... And I believe it better to bring it to the forefront of my consciousness, and explore it openly to uncover the hidden meaning contained within it's seeming destructive potential, so that it may purify me and prepare me for the next stage of my life.

Problem Number One: Central Banks and Money


The issue of the monopolization of money, legal tender, and negative interest rates.

  • This is the biggest problem we are facing. First of all, a new Great Depression that is going to make the panic and mayhem of 2008 look like a walk in the park is upon us. And we already know what their bailout plan is: more fiat debt. The infamous Special Drawing Rights (FDRs) are going to be used by the Globalists at the infinitely-corrupt World Bank to bailout all the central banks of countries that are going down, down, down.
    Italy first, then Spain, then Ireland, and so on... All the dominoes will fall and the global economy is going to experience a collapse like it has never seen. This is no coincidence, and this is only being accelerated by widespread adoption of private cryptocurrencies.
  • This is why central banks in all major countries are all actively preparing to unroll their Banker-Coin alternatives. #FedCoin. #BOJ-Coin. #ECB-Coin. You get the picture.
  • Game-theory strongly suggests that a massive shift in the existing balance of power is occurring, and the world is preparing to enter a period of turmoil and chaos it has not seen since the first half of the 20th century.
  • What does this all mean for millennials? It means we are being taken for target. The previous generation has absolutely no intention to let us off the leash they have us on. And the fucking sell-out pieces of shit from generation X that are sucking the devil's cock, the Facebook/Twitter/PayPal ravenous cunts like Zuckerberg and Musk and all these other billionaires plan to royally screw us in the ass. They plan on turning us into weak and dependent slaves to this New World Order they have sold their souls to.
  • The Baby-Boomer Banker Class, such as "Mr. Goodfriend" (somebody please murder this man before he ever gets anywhere near a position of power), whom Trump is considering appointing to the Fed Board of Directors are huge proponents of what they call "deeply negative rates to stimulate growth", adding that since 1999 they've been discussing how "negative rates were a feasible option, years before central banks started actually experimenting with them."
  • What does that mean? The bottom line is that this means our generation will have to pay the banks to not just hold, but control our money. Mr. "Goodfriend" claims this idea is "very feasible", which can mean only one thing:
  • The cataclysmic collapse of the US dollar is nearer than anybody thinks, FedCoin is right around the corner waiting to replace it, and all private cryptocurrencies are going to be made illegal. This is nothing new. The Internationalist Banker Cartel will never release their monopolistic control of money. They didn't get the monopoly they've enjoyed for the past few centuries without crushing the competition, and using the State to aid them in this pursuit of establishing a fiat "legal tender" that they controlled.
  • The situation is going to get very, very messy. When they get rid of cash, and start going after people transacting with private (in both senses of the word) cryptocurrencies, it's not going to be pretty... They're going to arrest people with mining rigs, people who use VPNs, they're gonna scan our computers looking for illegal wallet keys. All the backdoors already exist... They're collecting all of this information as we speak, and most of us are not adequately protected... I included...
  • Luckily, executing such a draconian plan, if a significant portion of the population is actively resisting these changes during a period of transition and rebanlancing of power, means it is virtually impossible to do this in any general and swift way... There are going to be cracks in their design, plenty of opportunity for people to stifle their efforts, and because we are in largely unprecedented historical grounds and uncharted technological lands, they will undoubtedly fuck up at every corner they can... This is why we should all be acting as "accelerationists"... They would see these changes take place over decades, long-drawn out periods that give them ample time to counteract and destroy all initiatives to resist their hostile takeover of global society and Mankind. If we give them hell in the next years, there will be Hell to pay for these Banker Scum.... We gotta throw one hell of a rodeo show and always keep them on their toes, using every clever and dastardly trick in the book.

Problem Number Two: Big Government and Taxes


"I feel I owe you an apology. We have a rule...we never free a mind once it reaches a certain age. It's dangerous, and the mind has trouble letting go." - Morpheus

The issue of law enforcement, mass surveillance, biometric and personal data-collection.

  • This is probably our biggest problem, because government is the only tool in the Globalist's playbook that can actively twist our fellow humans against us and violently crackdown on our emancipatory efforts.
  • They can legislate any law that they can conceive of enforcing through the use of violence and initiation of force. Yes, dissidents will be spied on, tracked, legislated against. Their organizations will be infiltrated. Their activities will be criminalized. They will be pushed underground and forced to either capitulate, or become renegades. Some will be silently murdered. Others will be detained, arrested, tried, and jailed. We will be attacked, overtly through vicious propaganda campaigns and covertly through secret police operations. We will be intimidated, and if we prove to be too riotous, we will be neutralized.
  • Government is by far the most dangerous and pressing concern that should be on all of our minds. If we stick our heads up too much, and are too loud, we will be crushed. However, if we stay down and crouched in the shadows and remain underground, our voices will equally be silenced and our message of emancipation will not be heard by those who are trapped by the system. We need to form effective cells, prepare deep and tightly-knit networks, and become capable and effective agents.
  • As the enslavement of mankind towards a technocratic society accelerates, new forms of taxes will be levied against us, effectively dampening and even thwarting our attempts at empowering ourselves and our communities. We are already seeing the police forces of the world confiscating our property everywhere we look. Corrupt law enforcement lines its pockets with the ill gotten spoils of our society... Possessing more than $10,000 dollars on us at any time, especially in criminalized alt-coins, will be seen as "suspicious" if it is not safely stored within the Banker's cryptocurrency legal-tender system. We're going to need to find new ways of concealing our resources lest they be confiscated by the government...
  • Taxes are going to sky-rocket... Our generation will be forced to work for sustenance living. If we work, we will maybe be allowed to keep 25% of what we earn. If we don't, since 50% of the jobs that currently exist are going to vanish from the market in the next 10 years because of automation and the "4th Industrial Revolution" (The Technocratic Robotic Revolution and the AI Smart Grid), we will be forced to contend ourselves with the "Basic Universal Income" that the Banks decide to give the Governments to allocate to their "citizenries" (slaves)... While those who have taken no action in these critical days will watch themselves being turned into powerless zombies of a Transhumanist society, they will become resentful of us who are actively escaping the clutches of this evil system's ways, and they will be programmed to turn on us and report us to the authorities... We must become increasingly vigilant and mindful of the "crabs in the bucket" who are not questioning the changes taking place around us and who are blindly following down the Satanic path that has been laid before them by the Social Engineers...

Problem Number Three: Mega Corporations and How They Work


The issue of corporatism, and the end of customer service and accountability

  • I already touched on the idea of a Universal Basic Income and 4th Industrial Revolution, and I think those are topics best reserved for a future post. Let me focus instead on how these Megacorps function and what they true purpose is.
  • Corporations (I'm talking Megacorps) no longer need to sell goods and services to function. They don't need us to purchase their products in order to make money. Why? Because what fuels corporate gains in this era is no longer sales. It's free money and rising stock prices. Take a company like Amazon. Amazon is unprofitable. Every time they sell a product, they lose money. Does that detract from their ability to monopolize the market? Not in the slightest. Why? Because their growth and take over of the market is fueled by banker subsidies. The hidden inflation tax that the the banks can levy by printing infinite money that steals its value from the value that we give it in our lives.
  • In fact, soon corporations will personally levy taxes from their workforce. It was revealed that Amazon's Jeff Bezos has been offered the opportunity to build his new headquarter somewhere where all council/city taxes that would be levied by the local government from people who work for Amazon will be placed in a special fund that Amazon will control. This means that all infrastructure, like roads and parks, that will be built around the headquarter, will be paid for by Amazon employees, and there will be a sign on all of this infrastructure that will say: "Brought to you by Amazon".
  • This is what is meant by "corporatism", or the "corporate takeover of America". But this goes far beyond America. These are global changes taking place wherever multinational corporations have extended their tentacles.
  • All these Megacorps will eventually be offered the same deal. Democracy died a long time ago, but the illusion is slowly fading away to reveal the corporate structure of the State. So what does this new corporate power allow the corporations to do?
  • They are becoming the new de-facto authorities. They get to make the rules. Have you ever read the "Terms and Conditions" of their services that you must accept if you want to access their services? They basically mean you forfeit all of your democratic rights to them. And what is this all leading to?
  • The end of Customer Service and Accountability. We've all experienced the frustrating and gumption getting experience of having to seek redress to a problem we encounter with a service provided by a Megacorp.
  • Customer satisfaction is a thing of the past. People my age, when they encounter a simple problem, need to wait daysWEEKS to find resolutions to problems that can manually fixed in a few minutes with a simple toggle switch on our account, or at the very least, entering a manual command with a prompt. So Why? Why do Megacorps purposefully treat their customer's like shit?
  • Because they actually have no need for our money and our business! They get infinite 0% interest FED money to finance their growth and market dominance, kill competition from enterprising and solution-oriented groups of individuals... They are MONOPOLISTS who see themselves as colonizers of the masses of the world... They are fueled by Satan and serve only one purpose: destroying our spirit and dominating us by crushing our very realistic and reasonable expectations, making it seem like we are powerless... The reason why such companies exist, is not to facilitate business and transactions in a speedy way. It's to trap us in a system that will ultimately enslave us and shit all over our hopes and dreams because we wrongly entrust them with our power, thereby tricking us to become dependent on them for basic services that we could essentially perform for ourselves without them!
  • Maybe I am just the most unlucky person in the world. Except I'm not, they're doing it on purpose.
  • My latest uphill battle with a Megacorp has been dealing with PayPal. I needed to send a small amount of money from China to the European Union to repay a friend for a loan he made to me a while back when I was strapped for cash. I went to my Chinese bank and inquired about making a transfer, and they told me that to make a 100$ transfer, I needed to pay a 75$ transfer fee. I said okay, no problem China, I'll just do what anybody in this situation would do, I'll get some bitcoin, cash it out in the UK and pay my friend that way, circumventing the archaic SWIFT system altogether.
  • So I get my satoshis, head to localbitcoin, and find an offer for somebody offering higher than the current market value paying through PayPal, essentially covering the fees of the service. Great, I have a PayPal account, I've used PayPal in the past, this should be really easy!

Wrong.


I know you're out there I can feel you now.jpg


  • I fell for their gimmicky trick. Again. I always do. I trust these corporations to fulfill the contract I assume we have engaged in when I use their service. Except that I've had to come to the realization that the "contract" I assume we are engaged guarantees only one thing: I will always get screwed over by these fraudulent Megacorp entities with zero accoutability and zero customer satisfaction guarantee.

Guys and gyals, mark these words. They do it on purpose.

  • PayPal has, in a pernicious sense, blocked my account, in the sense that I can receive money transfers on it, but I cannot send my money to another PayPal account, nor withdraw it to my bank account. There's an option to do that, in case that's not obvious. They advertize the service as something that will allow me to manage my money. But in reality, I send my money, and then it's their money, and I can just go fuck myself.
  • Don't believe me? Go quickly check out the aboutpaypal.org website. PayPal is an elaborate money laundering scam.
  • I supposedly paid over 15 dollars in fees to receive 200+ dollars. That's supposedly the contract I assume I've entered with them. Except that's not what the contract states. Once I send them the money, in legalese, it's their money. Pure and simple. And they can choose to give it back to me, if they feel like it. If it doesn't serve their money laundering scheme's interest, they simply don't have any obligation to give it to me. Once I decided to use PayPal, I kissed my money goodbye.
  • If that wasn't outrageous enough, I had to spend another handful of dollars to call their service up, wait in the line for hours behind people with the exact same problem as me while they taxed me some more. Then when I spoke to a customer service agent (a clueless wonder somewhere in some delocalized region of the world that has absolutely no idea about anything), I was told that they would forward it to the appropriate department, look into it and fix my problem. So after it didn't get fixed after 3 days, I called again. I got the exact same answer. I called a third time, and supposedly my "connection was bad and they couldn't hear me" and hung up. So then I sent them an email, because that will solve my problem, right? So after a day, I get an automatic response with useless information that had nothing to do with my problem. It says to reply to this message if it doesn't solve my problem. So I reply simply saying "real human look into this please." A day later, I get another automatic response. The same one. So I reply to that one: "real human please look into the nature of this matter". And I get an email from "Rose", who assures me that nothing is wrong with my account and that I can make a transfer or withdraw to my bank account. I'm on my 4th email now, and waiting.
  • PS: both errors on my account come with this simple message. "Please contact the Customer Service Center if the problem persists."

bbba93dcdffb0a882b764473fabc8af7.jpg


  • So what do I make of this? I realize that I'm just a meaningless cog in their machine. I realize I have no recourse. There's no "justice" in this world. There never really has been, but today, as we teeter on the verge of an Apocalypse, it's painfully clear...
  • Maybe it's just because I'm waking up. Maybe because I have been lied to so much by these corporate entities. I don't know why. PayPal is just the latest. In reality, this happens every single time. Sure, maybe I can use a service for a certain amount of time and it will work as intended. It'll work until I get used to using it and would have a hard time living my life without it. I guess that's what all their algorithms are really designed to do. That's why they're so keen on collecting all those user activity metrics... Because as I explained above, it's certainly not "to make better products for users." Because they don't need products to make money. They just need to be sophisticated instruments of control, and once they have an ungodly amount of control over our lives, because we give them all of our power and rely on them to do things that we should be able to do for ourselves; the algorithms pick up on this and start extorting us and enslaving us.
  • Sure, go ahead and say I'm wearing the tin-foil hat. Because The Guardian hasn't covered it yet. Because the Amazon-Jeff-Bezoz-owned Washington Post said it wasn't true. Sure, go ahead. But we all have encountered these problems. And how much time and energy has been expended dealing with these companies... You think they don't track that? You think they don't have a metric? Why is the first thing they ask when we call these Megacorps help centers is to identify ourselves? They're tracking all of it. They're measuring the amount of control they have over our lives.
  • This recent lesson I've learned with PayPal is for me the straw that has broken the camel's back. I no longer hold the childish, naive belief that I have some kind of "fair deal" with these companies. I realize all they want is to control my life. That's why they make me crawl to them begging for help. Well no longer. If a service I'm using stops working, I'm just writing that corporation off.
    I'm not putting up with their subliminal enslavement any longer...

We Need To Recognize What These Experiences Are Subliminally Conditioning Us To Accept.


Adios Billionaire scum. Good luck building your New World Order without me.


So yeah, I'm angry. As my Soul protests and fights this dehumanizing treatment, twists and turns in pain from the fact that their attempts at enslaving me are proving effective, despite my awareness of the problem...

I get angry

But like what Jung wrote about... "In rage lie the seeds of considerable strength of will and survival capacity." What I take from all this, is that the fire of the calcinatio... This rage and powerlessness that I feel faced by this system, that I seemingly had nothing to do with the creation of ((though not actually since in my purest form, I realize that I am an Eternal Being that has always existed...)... I realize that it is leading me to my freedom, independence, self-love...

I realize that we are all becoming more powerful and indomitable than we had ever previously dared to dream...

This Great Turning is as unstoppable as the Passing of Time itself...


So I invite you all on this journey...
Don't lose your Soul in this Matrix that has been erected around us...
Struggle... Resist... Fight...
Learn to contain this calcinatio...

This Fire that Burns Inside All of Us...

Rise my Fellow Brothers and Sisters...

That was too long for me to read, but it's worth noting this part in regards to the baby boomers:

What in the royal fuck was this generation thinking?

Remember, these guys are the ones becoming adults in the 60's and 70's. You know, the era of peace and free love and rampant drug use?

They were saying much of the same things you are. Now they aren't because they're in the positions they were complaining about previously.

So where will you be in 30 years? :P

Also, Amazon is profitable now. There are plenty of problems with mega corporations but investment capital isn't really one of them. Investment capital is a good thing, it's the only way people can start their own companies and get ahead... there's definitely some insanity with the things investors choose to fund though.

And you touched on the whole jobs going away thing but don't like universal basic income... do you have another idea? I really can't think of any solution for the jobs we're going to start losing very, very soon.

I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and Non-violence are as old as the hills. All I have done is to try experiments in both on as vast a scale as I could.

- Mahatma Gandhi

Violence is never the way forward. However, injustice is a threat to justice everywhere.

Peace is not the absence of violence but the absence of systematic injustice

@lexzydudu

That's a very discerning and wise distinction to make...

Yes it seems there are two competing definitions of peace in our world.

Peace as "the period of time between bouts of violence" and peace defined as "the removal of all the reasons for violence"

Thank you for sharing xx

@wise-old-man

Very interesting character. I like your style, fellow Steemian.

Gandhi was certainly right about some things. And lord knows, we are all as crazy as he was deep down inside... He tried to live his convictions as fully and freely as he could. I can't judge a man for being himself.

And Gandhi was certainly a self-actualized and self-realized man. I wouldn't put my blind faith in him and follow him as Ghuru, but for sure would have an interesting conversation with him!

Peace and Love!

Gen X'er reporting in!

LOL You millenials are hilarious. You haven't done anything but stare dumbfounded at your phones.

GET FUCKED MILLENNIALS

Hahahaha! I take your point to heart xD
You wait and see what we're gonna do
It's gonna blow your little college-educated asses out of the water! xD

Lol, all trolling aside, I really agree with you... We've been a horribly misled group of youngsters... Might think of us as a lost generation, who knows... I'm praying my generation will start waking up soon.. I see the signs everywhere...

But you are right, 1/2 millenials is a fucktard egocentric lost soul
The other ones are horribly depressed and lost, but hopefully enough will find their souls and ascend to doing great things in the world

Thanks for stopping by and reading the article! And get fucked too ;)

deeeey-um!! boy! extremely long vents... ok so i read your post and i just smiled all through and you know what i just said to myself, even in a privileged society like yours, you have so much to be angry about. Baby boy come to Africa, come to Nigeria then we can all sit, talk, vent and plan. Your so blessed like you never know, chill.

WOW ! I'm 67 years old, self-employed, and NOT on social security. Why ? Cuz its gone, stolen, spent, and I refuse to give the thieves license to steal from you to pay me. Sorry. Did my part. God is my provider, anyway. Not the U S treasury, aka, empty box. *-)

Wow! Now this is one of those Baby Boomers that stayed true to his youth's ethos!!!!!!
I love Hippies who didn't sell out and go corporate!

I totally rate and honour you good sir (or mam, but was written like a sir)! Thank you for being an inspiration and keeping the flame of peace and love alive!!!

The intergenerational love is what it's all about!
Fathers mothers daughters and sons that's all we are!! Brothers and sisters!

Peace and love to you xx

@gpa1950 is the man! I encourage you to check out his blog and support him. . Mofo is living out his bucket list dream of the following: " Hey, first time poster, beginning the dream of a lifetime. Bought a sailboat and am going to sail it down the Mississippi River to the Carribean ( ALSO A FIRST TIME ) and decided to share the adventure with others. " . . . Pretty fuckin' cool!

Thnx, dawg, much appreciated

Yo, I didn't even clock! That's frickin kewl!
Yasss! I am definitely supporting this! Followed and cant' wait to hear about this adventure!!!
The Caribbean is also my next destination after I've made money in Asia!
Hope to meet you there one day! Careful on the waters! Safe travels!!

And thanks @rawdawg for pointing this out to me! Much appreciated!!!

Adventure resumes in a week *-)

Thnx. If i were your age, i would channel that rage into a determination to get elected to congress and help Trump drain that swamp *-)

Hahaha @gpa1950
No thank you. If I could get rid of my passport and just cross borders freely I would do that. I'll keep my American passport until the day the IRS tries to come after me to extort me. Then they can kiss my American citizenship goodbye. I never lived in the US, I just have an American passport through one of my parents.
Asia is the future. This is where I'm channeling my energy! And most of it isn't rage, thank god!

Anarchist for lyfe

Too bad, I believe America is the worlds bst hope, cuz the ppl are great. We just need to clean up Washington ! Yer always welcome here *-)

As a GenX I feel pretty screwed by the previous generation as well. I was told to 'harden up', 'work hard and you'll be able to live comfortably', etc. I'm getting near forty now and have watched my chances of living as comfortably as my parents fade away into hopes of finding money buried somewhere. At least then I'll be able to buy a damn house or an apartment with a chance of paying it off before I'm too old and senile to work effectively enough to earn money. When I'm told that I should stop buying avacado on toast for breakfast, I become furious. I save everything I can and only spend money on what I can re-sell again later or invest. When I say "my stereo is broken, and no, I haven't replaced it yet" my parents assume it's because I am simply too lazy to get around to it. The fact of the matter is that I get home at 7:30 at night, make some food, and then freeze in my crappy unheated apartment as I sit under a blanket refusing to spend money on a stereo when I should be putting it into stocks or a small business or ANYTHING that will help me get ahead.

Same age, similar experiences and perspective. Feelin' this.

Thank you @rsbosse!

Right? I think this is something that when properly articulated is actually a pretty widely spread feeling among our generation... Some will just be like "whatever just relax, chill and relax", but they're also the ones who are gonna get hit the hardest by the coming changes...

Working at H&M and McDonald's ain't a way to live a life... What to do when that's the only thing left around to do? Just keep doing that and drinking and partying for ever?

It's a trap

Haha, right?! Stopped drinking a few days ago and stopped smoking about ten days ago after too long. Not sure how long but it literally felt like a trap and was going to kill me. So I decided to take back my power. I've come to a place where even if things don't crumble living this way makes me happier. And that's what I am after nowadays. Now being happy to me isn't ignoring anything. Oh on the contrary, but for the first time in my life I feel like I am following what I am meant to do. It truly boggles me how folks can meander through the day not aware of what's happening around them but then again the average football broadcast is 3 hours long, the game itself is 60 minutes, there are actually a little over 11 minutes of actual football action played in those sixty minutes and then all throughout approximately 100 hundred commercials are broadcast.... wow. The struggle is real, but we need to keep fighting. I have kids and refuse to be complicit in handing a world worse off to them. Thanks a bunch!

Good on you!
I'm not a fan of drinking.. I gave up weed since I moved to China. I've been off it for about a year. But I still smoke cigarettes... That's my main vice these days...

Even when I feel good, am well rested, eating healthy, doing exercise... I still feel I need that "reward".. Even though cigarettes fucking suck... But I guess I still feel they bring something to my life...

Hopefully I will be able to put them down forever soon.

I periodically try to go for several days without it, and go running instead..

I think I have the right approach.. I'll get over them.

Omg your point about football lol. Forget about it!
I can't get behind the modern gladiator stuff... But then again, without hip hop and my music I'd go crazy and probably resort to stuff like that to forget...

The world is stresssful these days.. I know why people just want to stick their head under the ground like an ostrich... But that's not gonna fix anything!

Gotta keep striving!
You're welcome, and seriously, it's me thanking you!

Peace n love xx

@clasre I know right!! Baby Boomers were part of the most incredible and awesome youth movement in hundreds of years... But they got corrupted... They were simply bought out by the system, and convinced to send their kids into the meat grinder... And once they had so much to lose, they were afraid of reverting to a world like before WW2. They were shocked by their parents in many ways... But they forgot so much about how the world actually is... They just thought they knew everything... And acted recklessly...

Whatever, what is done is done.

And of course some of the Baby Boomers were absolute fucking legends... There's no doubt.
Really really inspiring individuals came from that generation.

But as things progressed, it all got a bit out of control I suppose... And this article is really just a psychological experiment at expressing the psychic energy, more than anything else. My parents were baby boomers, and this is honestly something I would feel ready to confidently say at their face at this age.

I totally agree with everything you said...

Oh and keep buying your avocadoes lol. It's a crime how they are pricing them, but we have to keep eating them! They're too frickin' good!

I also hope you will get a new stereo soon!

Get your money into crypto first, and then get your stereo! Hahaha :)

Thanks for stopping by and reading! <3
Xx

I thoroughly appreciated, enjoyed and valued your rant :)

How easy would life be if everybody my age was completely connected through private cryptocurrency, and knew how to use it to conduct all of the affairs of daily life.

This is the way forward. We must wake up now and take over or it's never.

Great points, I feel the same. The system is broken. Infinite printing money to allocate scarce resources. Therefore money itself is an inefficient allocator of resources. But most people are not educated enough to see these through. On a positive note, I believe this can be changed. Mainly through technology, that's why platform like steemit is great. Keep up the good posts.

Agree! You're so right, money is a terrible allocator of resources.
You're also right that many have a hard time thinking in terms of economies and businesses, but hey, that's why we're here to rant about it! Jk lol ;)
Definitely lots of positive notes! Steemit is really great. I love it!

So many ways for us to save ourselves... Just have to do it !

I hope there are more people from where you came from.

There are some! For sure! I think we're a rarity though!
Maybe even a dying breed? Or maybe more and more?
There's no way to really know until we lay it out and see who resonates!
Stay tuned for more thoughts man, not all of it is doom and gloom! A lot of positive stuff too!

I think an awakening is happening. Cryptos are a manifestation of that awakening. Trump could be another. Brexit too. Zimbabweans nailed it. I think we will soon hear breaking news out of Saudi Arabia, EU and Uganda. The world wants to do things differently. It is time!
