Books about how being a neet poisons your mind and turns you into somebody who’s out of touch with reality.

There are no such books for one simple reason... NEETs aren't interesting. Rotting away in your room in your mommy's house where you grew up, doing nothing with your life, whining about your lonely peepee... literally no one wants to hear about that. It's too bad, really... we're in a transition from a society where average men had some hope of getting married and starting a family, to one where women go on The Pill at 18 and slut around with handsome chads until they hit The Wall, then either find some beta cuck to take care of them, become sad wine aunts, or become crazy cat ladies. It's a classic liminal space, but the only book I can think of that comes close to addressing it is "Whatever" by Michel Houellebecq.

https://meridianuniversity.edu/content/liminal-space-meaning-the-psychology-of-in-between
"A liminal space is a place of transition, an in-between space that exists on the boundary of what came before and what has not yet arrived. It can be a physical place. It can also be a psychological state, a transitional period in a life where the old structure has dissolved, and the new one has not yet formed."

So your proposed alternative is to remain stupid and ignorant, not to mention prejudiced? Doesn't sound very appealing.

We have a population of young adults advocating for socialism. It's not an antidote; it's more like a bad cope with terrible consequences.

Even if you wanted to cease being a NEET, it's not like there's much opportunity in the world these days. Underemployment is rampant among the educated.

Word. What's the alternative? It's not like anyone is hiring anyways. This morning a headline appeared on the sidebar of my computer claiming 160,000 jobs had been created since August. As if anyone still believes the lies that come out of the lugenpresse.
We all know companies are mass laying off people and replacing them with AI
>lr2code
Even code monkeys are getting fired (they had it a long time coming).
What really poisons your mind isn't being a NEET but rather that in your idleness you default to lazy habits like doomscrolling this cesspool because it's the path of least resistance.
I've been NEET since I graduated from uni back in 2022 and have had quite the good time when I stopped coming here and focused on reading and watching kino (I've since relapsed and am trying to get back on the horse again).

If you had bothered to get off your dead ass and read the linked-to article, you would have learned that the concept of liminality began in 1909 with Arnold van Gennep. Then again, 4chan has never had a reputation for intelligent clientele.

If you had bothered to look behind the 162,000 figure, you would have seen that, although the information industry lost 23,000 jobs (as you put it, replacing people with AI), the growth was in leisure & hospitality (59,000), local education (42,000), construction (22,000), manufacturing (16,000), and health care (13,000). You say you're a college graduate; is your degree in anything useful? My guess is that you refuse to take jobs that you feel are beneath your "dignity".

>>25511992
Wrong generation, dumbass. And I know about it because liminal spaces are a fertile subject for long-form fiction.

How do you fund your neetdom?
>>
>>25512023
Since he's not responding, in my experience, there are two primary sources of NEET funding: permissive parents and government disability payments. People without scruples can get disability payments for made-up shit like "anxiety", and governments are only too happy to use our money to bribe poor people to vote for them, eventually sending society into a downward spiral.
>>
>>25512002
I graduated in tourism and hospitality but I don't buy the numbers. Besides I've tried the whole job hunting schtick. It's a complete humiliation ritual where you have to jump through hoops like a circus animal, sending one gajillion resumes only to receive one or two interviews and then they never respond but mostly radio silence. Fuck that shit.
>>25512023
Partly my mother's pension and partly renting rooms out in her house on Airbnb. It's a miserable existence and I'm aware I have it better than most. If I didn't have that I'd straight up rope.

I've been a NEET for a decade, with brief stints of employment here and there. Being a NEET doesn't make you out of touch with society, being out of touch with society makes you a NEET. There's usually a combination of factors (upbringing, family situation, psychology, etc.) that has you ending up in this situation. I could see the NEET writing on the wall when I was like 13 if I look back at it.

A career in tech, for me, has required uprooting my life and moving for many of my jobs. Have you considered doing that? I'm not thrilled with being a migrant worker, but NEET is hardly an acceptable alternative.

How does it feel to be an utter waste of resources?

Why don't you try posting what you're trying to say like an actual human being? Like use a complete sentence, without a meme arrow. Or are you just afraid of actually voicing something sincerely for fear it might be eviscerated by a counteropinion?

I was a NEET for a decade and I value honesty, camaraderie and kindness
I love helping my coworkers and try living my life by the idea that whenever I act a certain way I am creating a miniature temporary world in which the values I hold are followed but I know God is watching so nothing is pointless
>>
>>25512326
"Waste of resources" is something wagecucks trot out when they're upset that they have to pay taxes. Blacks, women, children, the disabled, etc. are infinitely bigger drain on society then the odd NEET here and there. Even then, what does the average office worker contribute except taxes for the aforementioned groups? It's a very feminine, collectivist thinking regardless "kumbaya, we're all in this together, please don't hog the coconuts".
>>
>>25508304
>>
>>25513009
A NEET collecting disability is a much bigger drain on society than a working black, woman, disabled, or child who will grow up to get a job and pay its taxes. Possibly they are just an oversized burden on their parents or relatives instead of society.
