Zoomers actually think their parents and grandparents had it better. They didn't. Zoomers are the most spoiled generation to have ever existed. (twitter.com)

So there are more cars per person now, is that really guaranteed to be an improvement?

yes

If women were mostly stay at home, and didn't need a car during the day...boom, there's 5/10 cars gone, or roughly.

I don't know what you're smoking, but every 1-income household I know still has 2 cars. Do you not understand the concept of needing to run errands and do shopping during the day?

It's like saying we live better lives now, or have more opportunity, just because everyone has a smartphone. Which is a laughable statement.

It's a correct statement and you calling it "laughable" for reasons unknown does not invalidate it. Perhaps you just hate smartphones, I don't know, but they are unarguably an extraordinary advance for society. Everyone can walk around with the whole power of the internet in the palm of their hand.

Also, pardon me for being skeptical of a rainbow flagger talking about

literal ad hominem

GDP...which is notoriously fake and gay.

okay, I'm done here.

literal ad hominem

Bo-fucking-ho. Also, you cut off the part where I explain why that leads to my skepticism. It's not 'oh, he's gay, I don't listen to faggots' it's 'oh, he's gay, and I've noticed trends in aggregate in that community that leads to a bias against family.'

Ironic coming from someone who was just yesterday saying "Blacks are more easily programmed because they are so mentally inferior to all other races as a group, in aggregate."

That's alright, but me pointing out that gays are often anti-family is 'ad hominem.' If true, don't care.

Oh, and GDP is fake and gay, I stand by that. And I did say it's not completely useless, just often manipulated.

It's not even "he is a homosexual". It's that he puts that hideous groomer flag in his username, and has pronouns in bio.

True, I should have been more specific. I meant more 'ideologically Gay' than just 'homosexual.' I think there's some overlap, but it's really the Gays that are most staunchly anti-family, versus the gays.

And everything just keeps going to sh*t due to them.

Just because I use a smartphone, does not mean that I have to pretend that they have not done an enormous amount of damage to society. That is no advance.

okay, I'm done here.

I'd rather have a lower GDP with healthy families, low crime, a homogeneous society, than a higher GDP with rampant disorder, gangs, fatherlessness, crime everywhere, and an atomized society.

What harm do you think smartphones have done? It's literally just a tool. How people use it is up to them and human nature. It's like saying "guns are bad".

If you have a problem with social media in particular, that's not smart phones. Tiktok isn't smart phones.

I'd argue it's more like 'porn is harmful' or '24/7 news is harmful' or 'fast food is harmful.' It comes down to personal choice in all those issues but, on average and society wide, it's making things worse.

Smartphones make all the more accessible, 24/7. Smartphones make the perpetually online life more accessible. There's a lot of overlap between smartphones and social media.

But instead of saying any of those things, you're attacking the television that allows you to watch them, or the car that drives you to them. See my point? You're not attacking tiktok, you're attacking the smartphone that enables tons of different things, the vast majority of which are beneficial, but one of which is use of tiktok. Similarly, guns are used in beneficial ways 99% of the time, but because of the 1% of the time they are misused, the libs want to ban all guns.

By that logic, nothing at all is bad. You could claim that smartphones are not inherently bad, and I'll agree with that, but how they are used certainly makes them a net negative. That is why the modern West has become the shithole that it is.

If you have a problem with social media in particular, that's not smart phones. Tiktok isn't smart phones.

There's potential for an infinite number of Tiktoks. And besides, it's not just Tiktok. How do you think you export troonery and BLM to other countries? It is through Facebook, Youtube and Twitter.
