The Barrow

If I weren't able to separate myself from it, the world today would be exhausting to someone like me who still holds a lot of millenial ideals.

Most people like me have vastly changed their viewpoints and ways of thinking since the late 2000s and early 2010s. I briefly did too, but when the illusion was broken for me in 2019/2020 I quickly fell back into the way I had been before being brainwashed by ideas I encountered in college.

My own age cohort has become largely insufferable moral police who jump down people's throats for small perceived linguistic crimes, in an oddly puritanical way. This has caused the zoomers to rail against us and go the other way to an almost comical degree, embracing prudishness, paradoxically at the same time as edgy personalities and humor. It would blow the mind of someone from 2009.

Where do those of us who aren't duped by the corporate cult of weakness, yet don't care how people arrange their relationships or sex lives go?
