At it's peak in 2017, people were quitting their jobs left and right to trade crypto. Now, I don't know a single person crazy enough to stake their income on crypto trading.
I can't blame them. This generation of young men growing up have been so emasculated and neutered to such a level it's fucking pathetic. They're soft as shit. It's funny to watch them try to rationalize wasting money on pictures and the ridiculous fallacy that any of these girls give two shits about them and not their money.

I was (more of a) gigantic pussy growing up. But at least I recognized it as a problem and was properly ashamed of it. Nowadays I see so few young men with PRIDE in themselves. They have no rebellion in them and appear "happy" when they are led and pushed around.
I'm glad you were able to see it at least.
I can't even properly put into words how pernicious it is to inculcate young boys throughout childhood that everything that comes naturally to them is somehow inherently bad. But only when they do it. If another child who's a girl does something similar they're praised as 'empowered' – it's insane to think they won't pick up on that.
These guys are so beaten down that they actually believe that 'findom' is a fetish and that they're not just straight up being conned.
Who knows if it's even reversible at this point either. Their heads may be damaged for life at this point. Psychology is a terrifying thing.
I'd like to say rationalizing it by mocking and shaming would be one reasonable solution to getting assisting, as well talking things through to help them understand the absurdity of it all, but these aren't things we're even allowed to do anymore online; only in person. Anytime you try to address it online, for some reason it's considered 'targeted harassment' or being 'misogynist.' Which is fucking insane. Why the hell do women think they have a voice when it comes to men discussing masculinity amongst themselves? Imagine the shit-storm if I intruded on women speaking about feminine issues and told them that they're being misandrist by discussing what it means to be feminine. Alas, such is the world in 2020.
And you're ignoring self-selection and rhetorical exaggeration.
I'm sure the women the guidance counselors are speaking to are the ones who need the most guidance, and I'm sure the counselors have seen a jump in student e-thottery, a jump large enough to make his mother say "nearly every girl."
You need to let go of the rhetorical incidentals and get to what the mother was actually saying: "We've seen a jump in student e-thottery that has us alarmed."
See? Quit applying linear math to a network visibility problem.
Off topic but I want to vent: Fuck Twatter. Fuck you and your incompetent fucking developers. Every time I've opened a twatter link in the last several months I got a "This isn't available to you" error (what kind of a stupid fucking error message even is that?!) and I have to reload the page to see actual content. With this link I had to refresh three times.
This is a company that, despite only being able to send short messages and practically nothing else (although I hear the admin interface is highly sophisticated!), somehow had five fucking thousand full time employees last time I checked, and has a market cap of THIRTY FUCKING BILLION despite only making a profit in like two quarters in its fifteen years of existence and hemorrhaging money like mad in all the other quarters.
In the 2010s, Narcissism became a hobby thanks to social media. Like all hobbies, there were the privilaged few who made a career off of it.
If this post is true, Narcissism is going to become a regular career...unless the onlyfans fad fizzles like bitcoin and pro fantasy football did.
It already is: actors, journalists, social justice consultants, etc.
The internet is full of Bitcoin (and other Crypto) Zealots who all think they are going to get rich, not sure where you're getting your info.

I dunno, my lad is 15, he and his peers seem pretty based from what I can see, the next generation is going to fascinating to watch

US demographics: Female, 15–24, 21,137,826, or 2.11 million 18-year-old females. 450K is 21% of that.
Now consider how many females are on other e-thot sites.
Now consider how many girls joined, held out for 2-3 months, and quit (probably completely creeped out). In other words, that 450K is a rolling total.
Are you still sure about your math here?

Christ, I want Kim to finally nuke San Francisco.
why would you believe a /pol/ screenshot.
I'm sure even you would agree that there's no way "nearly ever girl [...] coming into college has an OnlyFans"
We are devolving into a society of morons staring at tits and ass while all around us is destroyed.
I was covering a lot of bases with that statement, including everything you mentioned.
