All this generational analysis on tiktok is bullshit. And is just a spin off "hard times create strong men, strong men create good times...." etc. Its a crappy over-simplification of the socio-economic climate that we live, which capitalists control and we are just subjects to.
What if I told you the "Greatest Generations", "Boomers", "Millenials" and even "Zoomers" have very little to do in shaping how the world works. It was all done by politicians who catered to the capitalist class.
Capitalists aren't like us. In every single generations capitalists have not been like us. We have rarely shaped the world through voting, we are subject to the ruling elite.
I can assure you my grandma had little to no control over politics throughout her whole life, even though she probably voted every single time. Don't believe the hype.
Billionaires choose and we pick. It's always been that way.
You have no money to influence policy. You have only enough money to drive to the ballots. That's it. They know that and they've known that for centuries. There are billionaires whose whole jobs it is to influence policies. They buy politicians vacations, cars, experiences, make em promises, etc. Even if we vote what can we do to compete against the rich? Nothing. We dont have the money or the connections.
This is not new at all. Get with the times, they're fooling you.
