The backwardness of the present day proletariat under Capitalism is equivalent to that of the ignorance of the peasants under Feudalism.

it do be like that when you think about it and if you bother to look at all of the evidence nad ponder it with attention and detail and focus you begin to realize the true way of things and when you think about it that's wht it's all about on this bitch of an earth ya dig?

<New research published in the International Social Science Journal suggests that the relationship between personality and political beliefs in the United States varies significantly by age. The findings indicate that higher levels of neuroticism are associated with liberal ideology among young Americans, but this association is absent in older generations. This generational divide implies that growing up in a highly competitive historical period may play a role in shaping both the mental health and political orientations of American youth.
This feels like such a weird assertion to make in the face of the Cold War. I suppose it makes enough sense that the current median of "the older generations", the average of which now being the youngest Boomers and oldest Xers, were the ones growing up through the 70s/80s to see the Cold War be in this weird limbo of heightened tension in proxy conflicts and media/rhetoric only to have it wind down during the latter half of the 80s. The thing is, until that point, during the whole duration of the Cold War, people were anxious of nuclear war, and that fear and paranoia was heavy, if not all-consuming for the many families of those that worked for the MIC, so it's very weird to say that younger people are more neurotic because they grew up "in a highly competitive historical period".

I'm not even trying to pull a Boomer-ism. If anything, the world we're seeing today is a return to pre-WW2 if not pre-WW1 norms (actually the scarier fact), but I feel like it's a tough argument to say the Cold War, even in the latter days, was less competitive. I suppose that the older people are "less neurotic" because, despite the anxiety and paranoia of the Cold War, they lived their 20s/30s in the 1990s, when the Cold War ended, Communism melted away, and the US enjoyed being hegemon of a truly unipolar world (for a fleeting 10 years); it's possible that, from their POV, the relief of the Cold War ending allowed them to forget the anxieties of the years prior and just remember that in the 70s/80s, they were having fun, struggling with jobs, getting married, and that all the threats of nuclear exchange was just bluster (which, ironically despite their neuroticism, younger people seemed to have internalized into the idea that nuclear war will never happen or is a trivial thing, which is dangerously bad)

<Social scientists have observed that political polarization in the United States is increasingly defined by a generational gap. Older cohorts have trended toward conservatism in recent decades. Simultaneously, younger cohorts have moved decisively toward liberal positions. While much research has focused on why older adults have shifted right, fewer studies have examined the psychological drivers behind the leftward shift of the youth.
I hate our smothering culture of mystifying socio-political phenomenon. Notice how they never delve into why older people "trended toward conservatism". The "generational gap" is only real insofar that you're simply just far more likely to live past 60 if you're rich, and if you're rich, you're far more likely to not support things like Socialism. Just think about all the Silent Gen and Boomer activists in the New Left that died before it was even 1990.

<Francesco Rigoli, a social scientist at City St Georges, University of London, sought to address this by examining the role of neuroticism. Neuroticism is a fundamental personality trait associated with a predisposition toward negative emotions, including anxiety, sadness, and irritability. Previous data has shown that rates of anxiety and depression have surged among young people in the United States. Rigoli proposed that this increase in mental distress might be a contributing factor to the adoption of liberal ideologies.
<“The study was motivated by the observation that, while in recent years old Americans have moved to the conservative camp, young Americans have become progressively more liberal. Why this has occurred remains poorly understood, and my article aimed at shedding light on this question,” Rigoli told PsyPost.
Is it me, or is it fucking weird how it seems like this part implies that Rigoli noticed that younger people were becoming more liberal and his first impulse was "let's see how mentally ill they are". Why are the British like this?

<The rationale for this investigation centers on what the author calls the “Generational Hypothesis.” This theory posits that the social environment in the United States has changed drastically since the 1970s. Older Americans spent their formative years during the post-war period, an era often characterized by greater economic stability, stronger labor unions, and a more collectivistic culture.
Again. More mystifying. The "collectivistic culture" he's describing is obfuscating the fact that the US (and the UK but it looks different) is going through a crisis in social reproduction and socialization in general. I don't even mean the whole "nobody's having sex" meme. I mean social reproduction as in the process of training and handing off a specialized role/function in work/bureaucracy from the older generation to the next. For jobs, it's because Capitalism incentivized older people to be deathly protective of their specialties in the workplace as a way to ensure companies absolutely need them, thus creating job security; to do otherwise risks making them expendable and lose their job to the younger worker. As long as this continues, it's setting us up for a sort of "micro dark age" where a recently retired (or dead) boomer in a factory turned out to be the only person that knew how to work a machine or knew what specific material was needed for maintenance, just for one example. These things can be figured out again, but it usually comes at the risk of workplace accidents which shouldn't have happened in the first place.

As for socialization, younger people are increasingly being raised asocially, and American society in general is doing its damnedest to make life simultaneously stiflingly protective and hostile for children to grow up in. There's fewer places young people can just spend time in between capitalism making the cheapest, most economical places of business gray boxes with nothing to do except buy and consume, and American authoritarianism just not wanting anyone having fun outside (it frankly doesn't want anybody, young or old, outside, because one of the worst crimes you could ever commit in Capitalism is to visibly be idle hands, but I digress)
