>gen z isn't drinking, fucking or working, what happened?

well you played social engineer and its blown up in your face, that's what happened

we're seeing the results of fucking around with society

just like how china saw and is still seeing the ramifications of its 1 child policy, well, the us isn't immune to consequences of pandering to minorities, special interests, and allowing society to be warped

thanks boomers

I think It's due to a lack of social connections IRL because drinking traditionally is a social activity (except for depressed alcoholics which are different) especially when combined with the other known statistics about dating, marriage, sex, and many other factors. All point back to rates of IRL social interaction (outside of professional settings) dropping to zero.

I can relate to this myself despite technically being a millennial (at the very end of that range) because I'm very socially disconnected as well and only go out for work or groceries or misc solo activities and don't have anyone to socialize with outside family.
