Millennials and Gen Z Increasingly Pessimistic About Their Lives, Survey Finds
I think this is predominantly due to these generations feeling the affects of social media. They are the guinea pigs of a world wide experiment. They’re the first generation that is constantly barraged with photos that lead them to fomo and unrealistic expectations.<p>I would argue this is a greater factor in producing pessimests than a downturned economy or bearing the burden of the boomers mistakes (climate change etc). They were promised a better life than what they’re getting by college and the Internet.
