I'm on the oldest edge of Gen Z, 27 year old here.

I can maybe handle my parents promising a good life for me before rug pulling that. Well, I can't and that's one of the many reasons why I have mental health issues.

I don't think they could have predicted 3 economic crashes in my life before I turn the age they conceived me.

It's just profoundly sad that there are people who were raised for this planet and the planet has changed fundamentally in the last 20 years alone. The technology, the temperature, the expected job market, the ability to own even basic things, the political climate.

Most people on Lemmy were raised with a bright future that has been dimmed each passing year. The only light we have are those we are close to.
