An interesting vision of Z-gen struggle with life. Challenges and solutions but the fact is that solutions which used to be offered by society are now up to you to figure out and most people can't. An so they descend into the black hole of social media which offers the illusion of connections and a reality of isolation and utter loneliness.
In a winner takes all society there are only losers in the end if it is to lord over a wasteland of human relations. By unleashing the technological revolution we have focused all our energy and attention to the material world to the exclusion of our spiritual well being. Some people can live with that, most can't as humans are above all a social animal.
Older people were born in a friendlier system and adapted slowly to the current reality. Younger generations didn't have this luxury. This explains the laying flat in China, ikikomori in Japan and crashing birth rates everywhere as they struggle to adapt to a dysfunctional society.
