How would these separate societies form?
-
I am glad that they are also extending the deal for at least another couple of days.

Nooooooooo!!!!😱😱😱

If outer space aliens are here, then what do they want?

Today, Hamas released 17 more hostages, while Israel released 39 Palestinian prisoners. https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-news-11-25-2023-7d83895eb736c09fab3eada4c31524b0

About a week and half ago, I made a thread about how young people are greatly losing faith in democracy, but no one responded to that. I get that no one owes me a response, but I can't help, but feel like this issue definitely has to be discussed on here because this getting to be disturbing for our world. Millenials, Gen Z, and Gen alphas, especially black and brown people from those generations, today have become pessimistic about the future. They feel like there is no hope for them be to become as successful as those from older generations. They are hurting a lot from the long-term effects of the late-stage capitalism and feel like they may not be able to survive for long. They feel like no one is listening to them enough. They don't believe the government will do anything to take on corporate tyranny, corporate greed, the right-wing megadonors, neofascism, provide access to adequate healthcare, address the skyrocketing problems cause by climate change and so many of these other crises out there that desperately need to be solved before things become unimaginably catastrophic for the future of humanity. Yes, the human race has gotten through many different kinds of historic crises before, but I honestly do not see any viable way that the problems we are facing now are going to be solved before it becomes too late. What can be done talk to talk young people off the ledge?

24 more hostages were released by Hamas as part of the deal they made with Israel to have this temporary ceasefire. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/hostages-released-hamas-israel-ceasefire-deal-thai-captives-egypt-rcna126380

Well, I know that red states like Texas, Georgia, Kentucky, and Florida already passed a bunch of voting laws a couple years ago in each of their states that made it harder for black and brown people to vote. There's also the racial gerrymandering that's been going in the red states over the past 10 years and SCOTUS said that such matters should be left to the states to decide.

I hope you're right. Everyday it feels hard to stay optimistic about it when I keep getting stuck in a plateau. I don't see how I can solve #1 and #2 anytime soon when the cost of even renting my own place is ridiculously expensive these days.
-
But the sex shown in advertisements, magazines like cosmopolitans, movies/tv shows, porn, art, etc. is not creepy, pathetic, and needy?
-
Very sad. I hope the people of that country one day sorely regret this....
-
What's creepy about that, especially when sex has become more widespread all over the media than ever before and we are living a more sexually liberated society than ever before? Besides, I am not naturally a party person. That's never been a part of a core of my personality. I tried being that way for years, but too many people thought I came off as a too much of a try hard.

1) and 2) are definitely two of my top problems, but I don't have enough money of my own to move near or into a large city. I have to first get my DPT degree before I can finally make enough of a decent living to move out of my parent's home. However, I feel like even if I had the chance to be in the right city, right location to cold approach at least 30-40 girls new girls per week, I am not optimistic about being able to fix problems 3), 5), and 6) even after all of the coaching, knowledge, and advice I've gotten and the amount of trial and error I've done.

I tried that to and that still wasn't enough to help me succeed with women.

Wasn't life easier for minorities in the 1980s and 1990s, than it has been since the 2010s because of the 2008 financial 2008 followed by the historic levels of economic inequality we have had for years now? Also, what about the fact that minorities have been losing more and more of their voting rights for decades for now because of the radical right in the courts and in pretty much every red state? Not to mention that the MAGA Republicans and the right-wing megadonors have been destroying our democracy and freedoms for decades now to the point where we may literally be living in a nation taken over by the KKK and corporate tyrants.
-
I also studied a lot of theory and tried diagnosing my own sticking points for years as well but that didn't work either. It ultimately took me a number of years cold and warm approaching and online dating to finally get one girlfriend.
-
I tried getting help from a skilled wingman and from a coach, but neither of them really worked for me.
-
I know that women are very interested in erotic novels like 50 shades of grey. Is there a way to bring that into a conversation with a girl you just met?
-
This is very dismaying.

My parents say that it's not worth trying to start a business because most fail anyways and if you bother trying then you will just end up with a massive amount of financial debt for the rest of your life after failing at it.
-
How can any aspiring entrepreneur successfully start a new business when there are just way too many huge corporations and monopolies out there that will easily takeover or outcompete any small business? Also, don't you have to have a lot of name recognition or be uniquely gifted at something or have a tremendous amount of luck in order to even have a real shot of running a successful business?

It's not just about my personal life. Most young people are not even demanding the government to give them a great life. They just want the government to protect their individual rights and freedoms and to provide them enough of the basic needs just to survive without ever having to worry about whether or not they are going to make it. How do you tell what you're saying to black or hispanic people living in the ghettos who are still angry about not being able to get out of generational poverty no matter what they do and the fact that they have lately been losing more and more of their losing voting rights?
-
Then, why aren't young people not seeing that? Why are they still suffering from not being able to afford to rent or buy even a basic home like their parents could in the mid to late 1900s? What about for black and brown people and the working class who believe that things haven't gotten any better ever since the 2008 financial crisis? Why are more than 30 million Americans still suffering from not have any basic health insurance at all or the kind of the drugs and treatment they desperately need?
-
Have you also thought about joining a movement or organization devoted to taking down corporate greed and eating the rich?
-
It isn't just progressives who are complaining about the government not having done enough for the people. Black and brown people in the US are upset with the government including the Democrats for not fulfilling enough of the promises they made in 2020. That's why they may decide to just not vote at all for anyone in 2024.
