In reply to the discussion: Professor: ‘Follow your dreams’ is cruel advice [View all]Newest Reality
(12,712 posts)I'm late Boomer and though many of those options are not available to me, the lifestyle of being part of the ten to twelve-percent of the now unnecessary, or expendable part of this internalized, capitalist Fiefdom is still just as meager and dire.
There is the option for the youth who realize what they are being handed, (crumbs and dung) to focus their angst about potential Serfdom into a proactive stance. That includes doing more study and investigation, as well as exploring the means by which this heist is conveyed, portrayed and executed.
Don't wait for something to happen, just ease gradually into being something that happens in response to it as a way of life. That does not even mean being revolutionary or a lopsided rebel, but rather, acting as an aware participant and knowing that a thousand cuts by a thousand people is far more effective to slay a beast than pounding at it alone with your fists.
Sorry about the reality of my attempt to portray this in a humorous way. It is not like I am being hypocritical though.
