Gen Z is increasingly slamming their degrees as useless, and new research indicates there may be some truth when it comes to the job hunt. In fact, the unemployment rate of males aged 22 to 27 is roughly the same, whether or not they hold a degree. It comes as employers drop degree requirements and young men ditch corporate jobs for skilled trades. Gen Z is struggling to break into the entry-level job market—but young male college graduates may be hurting the most.
Prayers for all the Boomers who will read this article and be completely unable to process the information it contains.
Just walk past the swarms of foreigners willing to work for less than minimum wage, look the boss in the eye, and give him the ol' firm handshake.
Because women, being largely incompetent, are a category of DEI hires. Anyone who isn't a straight White man gets DEI privilege.
Yeah, I've always said treating 51% as a minority is retarded. In any case, the weaker sex gets Didn't Earn It privileges for the same reason blacks and browns do, because they're generally inferior and can't compete against straight White men in a meritocracy.
It's not bots, you just have a reputation that is well earned.
It's not bots you imbecile.
Nothing pisses off Imp1 more white peoples having jobs and families.
Oh hey imp.
It's not weird, women are taking white collar managerial jobs. The foreign slave class is taking manual labor.
A reminder that when ASDA staff complained about warehouse staff possibly being paid more it turned out to be not only the staff at the checkouts who do next to no lifting, heavy or otherwise, but that the majority of those staff were women.
Warehouse was where all the guys got allocated because it needed actual strength to move large quantities of stock, in addition to operate the forklifts when accessing the higher storage options.
Women almost always gravitate towards the jobs with fewest physical requirements, except a few who try to "challenge themselves" so they can
then blog about it on social mediabe just like everyone else... and blog about it on social media.This particular breed of equity is known as “holistic”. It’s when a “50% female workforce” is achieved by funneling all of the easiest, cushiest, fakest jobs to women.
The video game industry is rife with this bullshit. All of the programming and coding is done by men - because there aren’t enough competent female software engineers to properly staff an entire industry - so then every other job becomes majority female in order to offset. If you’re a man, good luck trying to find a job as a narrative designer in modern AAA western game dev.
Agreed, this is effectively a biological imperative of women attempting to create the social communities that civilization actually needs, but instead it becomes a longhouse of den-mothers.
Unions were behind that as well helped by activist courts which also affected jobs by local authorities.
I heard it described as "pink collar jobs," which is freaking brilliant in my opinion. Charlie Kirk was telling Tucker about it.
But, yeah, new job types are created for women, while men's jobs are either outsourced to foreigners, or underbid by illegals, or reserved for H-1Bs and the like.
It’s an ideological imperative that women must be half of the work force, so the system will generate as many jobs as it takes in order to make that ideology a reality.
Reminder that 2/3rds of black female college grads were employed by the federal government.
That's clever.
Holy shit you're alive
Some of those women are foreigners.
Ukranians are far from the only women coming over. A majority of our immigrants are not White.
You're not providing numbers. Also, you yourself immigrated.
Boomers are the ones refusing to hire the younger men. This started with the millennials and boomers rugpulled white men hard because they could get a percentage of ESG funding for being “diverse” and the boomers sure as fuck weren’t going to fire themselves.
Its also this constant cultural tearing down of young people and then old people complaining about them and lauding immigrants for working so hard. Really its Joe and Yolanda Boomer who wants cheap labor, cheap products, and wage slaves that don't talk back and demand rights, yet.
Someone mentioned some kind of "Boomer stare of confusion" a while back which will be exactly how they look during this.

Severian from founding questions has a theory that something has changed in terms of biology for American whites. The boomers are the first generation of whites who have aged very poorly, as all previous generations were still skinny into their old age. Boomers of the first generation of whites that do not look like their predecessors. Sev has a few theories on this. One of the theories I've heard elsewhere is boomers are the first generation of r select whites, is all previous generations of American whites were k in terms of breeding. That would explain their chunkiness, their short term thinking and lack of cognitive ability.
Sev has entire posts on how modern whites don't look like whites from a century ago. Not in terms of fashion but in terms of appearance of biology. He even dug up a bunch of photos and videos of young girls in the 1980s and pointed out that the average white girl nowadays does not look anything like the girls from even just a couple decades ago. It is really disconcerting. Uncanny valley affect.
This idea has bugged me for quite some time. Whenever I go to a museum I notice I look like the white guys from a century ago or even just a couple decades ago. But I don't look like modern men.
That's not how r vs K work. r vs K selection mostly comes down to number of offspring and time invested raising them to suitable self sufficiency. K has fewer offspring and puts in more time per offspring, which is in no small part due to our own biology where our nascent stage is helpless. Meanwhile r simply plays the numbers game and throws as many offspring as possible out into the world and hopes enough of them last long enough to reproduce. Family sizes have been going down and down over the last century and a bit where if anything it would be trending away from r and towards K. We don't need a dozen children now because we expect half of them to die before hitting double digits age wise.
Regardless of that humans have always been K selection because that's just how our biology works.
Myep. "Why is the hiring market in such bad shape? Ms. Smithers, have we had any minority applicants for the C level job?"
Many of them won't read it. They're too busy shopping for their second house in neighborhoods where they can outbid a young family just trying to afford their first one by at least 20% or more.
It actually hit earlier than we say. My Dad worked his butt off, but didn't make money until maybe 15 years ago. He's had several failed businesses. Every single time it happens, he's told he's not working hard enough or not talking to enough people. I remember that every time I go through hardships.
"You just don't work hard enough like those immigrants".
My dad is an immigrant, heck, so am I. Yet somehow us working till we cant move and not seeing our kids isn't hard enough. I've watched as every guy who has said that lost their job or got demoted. They all think they can just work harder.
It was real for my grandparents. Both sides grew up in poverty, got a degree, and became well off enough they could retire. I've met too many people who think they are failing because of what my grandparents could do.
Doing what you're 'supposed' to do, and still ending up failing is what started me down the rabbit hole. I suspect a lot of Gen Z and younger are going to be radicalised by this.
Turns out the people telling you what you were supposed to do actually hated you.
I worry about which direction that radicalization will take.
It presents both a risk and an opportunity.
An entire generation of disenfranchised, 'fighting age' men...
There's NO WAY that will have a negative effect on society.../s
Unfortunately it probably won't have an effect. We will just take it.
Historically, no, that's not how it works. Large numbers of angry young men with nothing to lose, if nothing changes, will eventually, inevitably, make like modern-day Sea People and burn everything down.
I hope you're right. I just don't see it happening right now. I hope I eat my words in 5 years
Remember that events like the Civil War and the Revolutionary War had decades of build up to them.
Yeah, history is long stretches of "nothing ever happens/nobody will do anything" punctuated by periods of "oh my God, how did this happen!?".
You would not believe how many people are asking that question right now. Skies only look clear because of the iron grip on media control that they're enjoying, but reality surges on just beneath the surface.
Ya but those guys have porn and drugs now.
Xers did nothing.
Millennials did nothing.
Zoomers will do nothing.
They are too weak and demoralized. Couple that woth race wars, and probably a real war. There are e ough ways to cull the herd.
I've found, with looking back at history, that one motivated white guy can REALY impact the world.
Whether through politics or fertiliser purchases, I'm not risking it /s
Hopefully it does and we eradicate the problem
If only they were just useless.
This is exactly what happens as AI and H1Bs gobble up jobs from both ends, but I automatically distrust the Mike Rowe contingent that acts like skilled trades are the promised land. There is no boom sector like we had with tech in the 2010s.
The important thing about trades is that those are the skills which are critical for building a society from the ground up. If you're comparing jobs in a stable economy then there may be better arguments for other things, but if you're considering the full spectrum of potential challenges we may encounter, the trades are invaluable.
Trades in my area pay middling wages and are generally filled to the brim with immigrants. Just like every other job sector.
What's the quality of work they're doing?
Average at best. Usually to whatever standards of the country they are from.
The job market sucks. Nobody has good stories of the job market. At this point, stay in an area where you know people and get a job via the people you know.
now separate the data by degree. I bet liberal arts and philosophy degrees have a higher rate of unemployment than engineering, nursing, and legal.
Engineers are being replaced by H1Bs. As are the other STEM graduates.
Ten years ago the average bachelor's degree owner would out-earn a high-school graduate by the age of 40 in gross lifetime earnings. I assure you, this trend will continue to get worse.
Too many illegals & jeets depreciates labor which in turn depreciates demand & salary
Why even wageslave, get on the gibs
There are few issues that mass deportations cannot solve.
They're going to try to leave the military as one of the only viable ways not to be poor.
Going into blue collar work will be the path forward. This is already happening with Gen Z men, to a certain extent.
Yet another effect of the "everyone gets government backed loans for MUH EDUCASHIN!"
It's also why university staff and admin costs spiked, they had to find ways of spending all the Barry-Bux that started flooding in.
I know why you are being downvoted, but it is true. Gen Z women have a HUGE advantage over Gen Z men. It’s a lot easier for Gen Z women to network or get in front of the Boomer and Gen X men running the companies (think a man is going to get an administrative assistant or secretary role? Don’t make me laugh) and have a pathway to success vs Gen Z men, who Boomers, Gen X, and Millennials view as competition. Literally every argument of why white men are failing right now boils down to, “Older white men view younger white men as competition and will do everything they can to lift up every minority and female possible just so the perceived threat of competition is eliminated.”
