I reached the point where a Zoomer allegedly said their peers use the term "quiet-quitting" and realized this was fiction.

I reached the point where a Zoomer allegedly said their peers use the term "quiet-quitting" and realized this was fiction.
- wtfwhateven 3y agoI scrolled through her twitter a bit and can't see a single instance of her posting a picture with a "fellow gen z-er", just her with middle-aged conservative pundits. I know multiple non-monogamous people and not a single one has ever said monogamy is outdated or ever tried to coerce someone away from monogamy. Nothing about her story sounds honest to me. The conclusion of the article is "phones bad, take them away and everything good" which is the same talking point politicians from the era of leaded fuel want you to believe. She appears to solely blame phones for zoomer depression and completely ignores everything else. It's gross. I don't know why any reasonable person would ignore everything else other than them wanting to push an agenda or they're completely oblivious to the situation. It's probably both, she's a wealthy individual (sites state her net worth is $1.5 million, how many zoomers do you know that have such a net worth or can ever achieve such a net worth?) and constantly tweets conservative culture war stuff on Twitter. Another thing I'm reminded of is the articles that sometimes make the rounds with headlines like "This teen just purchased their own house!" and other "rags to riches stories" and every single time it turns out their parents are extremely wealthy and inherited the wealth from their own parents. It's grossly dishonest.
