Across the board in so many areas it feels like everything from a technical standpoint has gotten worse. I dont mean usual stuff like raised prices or loot box shit in video games Im talking like audio or visual quality in movies, music, etc. web design, maintenance of infrastructure both irl and digital, food, both what you buy at the store and restaurant. Teachers are less competent same with any worker anywhere. Often times even getting help at a business or service requires you to do often more than half the fucking work and figuring it out. Is it because we have all gotten dumber or more bitter and apathetic. Its obviously likely both but yeah everything sucks ass and is gay now

They're going to blame it on immigrants but trust me, it's just people getting stupider in general.
I say that as an immigrant (one of the ones you despise the most)
The quality of new immigrants is just dropping, as well as the education level of people in the west. The worst part is you can't reason out with any of these people because everything runs on vibes and feels and icks now.

I dont give a fuck what shade of brown you are or if youre an immigrant, but whatever. Anyway yeah it is annoying that this cant even be talked about to normies because it is against the vibe or whatever. Also any adult unironically using the word ick i just lose all possible respect for

Well that's nice but I'm telling you that I'm a brown immigrant. When older immigrants tried warning people against importing retards from the third world who didn't assimilate as well, we were laughed at.

But that's not the only issue here and it's being used as a scapegoat. A lot of zoomers (not all of them) seem to just be incapable of reasoning things out long term or delaying gratification.
Imo smartphones are to blame for this. Everything started going downhill in 2010 but especially after 2015, and that's sadly when I became an adult
>Anyone using the word ick I just lose all possible respect for
Don't forget people that unironically respond with "cope" or "L" to personal conversations when you're trying to reason things out with them

The bar has been lowered everywhere.

Society used to exclude people. At some point in the 20th century we thought it was better for every dull-eyed retard to participate in every aspect of society. We decided every kid who wanted to be an artist should get to be one.

Art became ugly, music is fake, food is about profit margin not taste. Everything possible is commodified to be sold to the lowest common denominator crowd and they clamor for pure trash. The average person is too dumb and/or uncultured to know good from bad. They just want the bare minimum constantly in front of their eyes or crammed down their throats as it will be just enough for a trickle of dopamine to keep them sufficiently stimulated to continue consuming.

This isnt just because of progressives and equality being pushed in 20th century but also consequence of mass society that started in 18/19th century. Before except some stated obligation like taxes, work on fevdal fields etc. (even conscription started spreading only at end of 18th century) most people used to be more or less isolated from state and only part of local society. With mass state their obligations increased (compulsory military service, compulsive schooling etc.), state centralized and those people were forced to actively participate. And in time they also wanted some rights/privileges, not only obligations.

This is objectively false, we live in the best time ever. You're just a boomer, and like any boomer you greatly romanticize your safer past over the uncertain future.
