I blame smartphones. The dominant feature of youth used to be relentless, neverending, soul crushing boredom. If you were creative you would do almost anything to escape that boredom. Make something, write a song, create an event. Anything. Now nobody is bored anymore. Maybe existentially but not in a literal minute to minute sense.
