No, they are told they will be a pilot, engineer, scientist, or doctor, and they will like it. Or else they go to the gulag. You dont have to do a good job. You just have to do a job. Which is why Russia cant build jet engines, and China needs to keep stealing everyone elses tech.
Meanwhile, in the US, the people who become those professions are people who want to do it, and are therefore actually interested in becoming competent (usually). Every generation has wanted to be famous. Zoomers are no different.
Yes, of course they're fucking told, that's the entire point. Children in non-western countries are told to be the best they can be. Children in progressive western countries are told to cut their genitals off.
And yet, those non-western countries aint producing shit, while the US and the West are still home of technological innovation changing the world.
Its worth remembering: The degeneration present is entirely concentrated in a handful of Left-Wing mega-cities, who also happen to be where the media is (Hence why they blast it out on 11 to the entire world). Meanwhile, in my town, people are still having children, girls still like pink princesses, boys still like dirt and cowboys, and my alma mater is still turning out engineers who go on to actually build shit.
Meanwhile, in China, it doesnt matter if they decide to use bamboo instead of steel to reinforce the concrete. Because the engineer was chosen for loyalty after all, and he says its good enough.
Listen, I don't think we really disagree, I mean, absolutely FUCK China. Have you ever read "Poorly Made In China" by Paul Midler? It's a fascinating read, the guy could really use an editor and the whole book should have been an article, but if you can get over it, it's a fascinating read.
Anyway, I'm really not defending China, or Russia, or India, or Best Korea, or any other shithole country like that at all. I'm just really mad about the state of western civilization. The "young kids want to be tiktokers" really rubs me the wrong way because I have seen this shit in person. The country I'm from used to be known as a technology powerhouse, we used to make our own shoes, cars, aircraft, firearms, entire fucking nuclear power plants. Nowadays, we're making, what, Scrum masters? It breaks my heart. I'm doing my best to keep the tradition, but it feels futile.
Perhaps the difference is where we are from. I live in Kansas in the US, and as famous as we are for our agricultural production, we actually make aircraft as our #1 export, because Wichita is still the Air Capital of the World even after Boeing left (...then its every type of Ag product you can think of...). And while there are plenty of kids who want to become tiktokers, they see that as a hobby, not a job. Most of them still are working toward doing something actually useful. Hell, I know some of them who want to use things like TikTok to show of what farming is actually like, because they think a lot of people dont know anything about it.
Yes, the West is in a bad place, Europe especially. But I think we are turning a corner. History shows that people in decline generally dont accept it, and will seek a way out of it, one way or another. What others see as the Woke and the Left doing whatever they want because they will never lose again, I see as their last desperate gasp at power as they loot everything that isnt nailed down before they go running to their artisanal doomsday bunkers in New Zealand.
