As someone right in between Millennials and Zoomers ('92), I find myself really empathizing more with gen Z. I really appreciate that our weird puritan-work-ethic-meets-corporate-capitalism economy has finally produced a generation that is just fucking done with how out of control it's gotten.
People are finally realizing that "the hustle" is a fucking scam if you don't have enough equity in your "hustle" that you're on its Board or in the C-suite. Which is almost nobody at this point. We're finally rejecting this glorification of labor at the expense of ourselves, our society, our environment, etc.
- hellisothers 5y agoI also appreciate the “f the hustle” mentality but it seems to come from a place of self entitlement, a lot of “and what about me?” less “what about us?”
- socialist_coder 5y agoThere is no "us" when we have this level of income inequality and workers are treated like dirt. You have to be a fool now to think your company actually cares about you.
- Chris2048 5y agoThe "us" is the working class. I think the implication is they don't really care about their fellow workers, but for the power of union.
- InitialLastName 5y agoI see the same "what about us?" being asked. The only difference is "coworkers and company" have been removed from the "us" group.
