THE PLUTO IN CAPRICORN GENERATION'S ATTITUDE IS THE PROOF THAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH A PARADIGM SHIFT

The average 4 year old spends more than 3 hours each day in front of a screen. Isolated, with no human interaction and their ability to read human emotions and perform complex cognitive functions declining constantly.

The Pluto in Capricorn generation holds a direct mirror to our socioeconomic and technological structures.

Pluto = breaking, transforming, war, power games, death, metamorphosis

Capricorn = socio-economic structures and organization, careers, institutions

After the 2008 crisis and COVID-19 AND the current silent depression we are moving through, looking at the way children of that generation behave, shows us where our societal constructions failed. So here are some observations :

- Many Pluto in Capricorn kids want to pursue a career path out of the norm. They want to be influencers or own online businesses. Very few of them are interested in traditional paths of wealth like banking and finance.

- They don't have respect for school and education because they feel like it doesn't teach them enough. Most of the kids also went through 2 years of online school and they missed out on the social perks the schooling experience provides.

- Violence. This generation is mad at the system. They quiet quit. They hate supervisors and "gurus" and they are also looking for extremely masculine figures, like Andrew Tate. A few days ago I stumbled upon the Candace Owens talk with Andrew Tate and he appeared a bit "reformed". Guess what? The young men in the comment section did not like his slightly changed views on marriage and women.

- This kids consider Facebook and Instagram "old". They like crypto and decentralised platforms. They are simultaneously very street smart but not that interested in formal education.

- It feels like these kids had to grow up very fast in a world that seems unforgiving and harsh. They may be more unemotional and less empathetic, especially if personal placements support that.

Hey. Gen Xers, hey. Hey.

I want to translate a few things for you. When people, when The Youths, when they say something is traumatizing, or they have trauma, it doesn't mean what it meant when we were teens. It doesn't mean that a person is going to be nonfunctional the rest of their lives. It doesn't mean they will be institutionalized. It doesn't mean thorazine and straitjackets. It means that the person has reactions and does things that are counterproductive to the life they want to lead, and they can have therapy to fix it. When folks say they have PTSD, it doesn't mean hallucinating their way through the streets screaming until a group of huge strangers in white uniforms bundle them into a van and haul them away. It means they have trauma, see above, that is difficult to overcome completely, and they need to learn some workarounds to manage their own responses to the world. When people say that were abused, they don't necessarily mean being starved, beaten with a belt, and locked in a shed for years. They mean that their caregivers as children, or their partners as adults, the people they trusted to care about their needs and help meet those needs, did not do so. That the people they trusted to care about them broke that trust in ways that make it difficult from them to have healthy relationships now. Therapy helps with this. And if you've read this far, my dear Gen Xers, my comrades, my peers, my dudes, if you have read this far, I want you to know, you might could have some trauma too, and you can have a bit of therapy, for morale, to make your life easier.

It's okay to want to make your life easier now. It doesn't mean you deserved it, before. It doesn't mean your parents were monsters, people who are doing their best can fuck up and it's okay if those fuckups hurt you. It probably isn't going to ruin your life to ask for some help figuring things out, and if that ruins your life, well, something was fucked-up in your life that needed fixing.

Being tough and figuring shit out for yourself got you through. Past-you was a fucking champ, and they did everything they could with the tools they had to protect you and get you to where you are now. But there are better tools now. Dialectical Behavior Therapy wasn't a thing when we were kids. Nobody knew fuckall about ADHD or autism when we were kids. There are meds now, meds that WORK, for a lot of shit that we white-knuckled our way through. And, yes, you have a System now, and it mostly works, and I am so, so fucking proud of you for that. You did all of that, alone, and I am so, so very fucking proud of you.

But you can let go a bit. You can let it down. You can make your life a bit easier. You can get some help, some real help that works, now.

:fistbump:

Take care, my dudes. Take care.

I was going to make a post about how millennials have very few cultural artifacts, but I got distracted by quintessential gen-xers David Foster Wallace, Marta Kaufman, and Douglas Copland being boomers?!

As a genx’er I firmly view Yellowjackets as a testament to how genx deals with trauma. Trapped in the wilderness for 19 months and eating people but everything is fine, just let me snort some coke, fuck a stranger and kill a dog. All good now.
