The entitled, destructive impulses that characterize our TikTok generation highlight the inadequacies of our current political discourse. The individualism, self-monetization, and greed necessary for survival in today’s competitive labor market amplified our worst impulses. The collective nature of populist movements reverberates with audiences broken by social isolation and family breakdown. Membership in this generation captures a sense of cynical youth that see no future other than one we fuck up. Our collective narcissism and obsession with instant gratification have given birth to a culture of self-promotion, where success is measured not by what we accomplish but by how many likes and shares we can get online. The need to compete in an ever-expanding labor market has further imbued us with a sense of individualism and greed, amplifying our worst impulses and making us forget the importance of genuine human connection.
As we search for meaningful relationships in a world devoid of them, we turn to apps like Tinder, which provide a quick fix but lack any real depth or lasting impact. We live in a society where consumption is valued above all else, and our yearning for connection is reduced to mere swipes and clicks.
Our reality has become a collective psychosis, as half of our democratic society has fallen into a cult of conspiracy theories and misinformation. Self-serving, sociopathic leaders with no regard for truth or the well-being of others have gained immense power. We are captivated by the allure of those who promote self-indulgence and indifference, while the unsung heroes who work tirelessly to make the world a better place go unnoticed.

The prevalence of violence and mass shootings only deepens our cynicism and disbelief in a world that can often seem senseless. Our collective desensitization to the suffering of others makes it difficult to feel a connection with the world beyond our immediate reality. Our digital culture only reinforces this dystopian reality as we spend our days hunched over screens consuming an endless stream of content that leaves us feeling jaded and exhausted. The 15-second video circulations and salacious witticisms from our peers only distract us from the harsh reality surrounding us. We get used to this masochistic consumption habit, and when we have a break, we feel jaded.
