why waste your time being angry over something you can’t control? the fact is it isn’t possible for you to be born in another century so leave it at that.

Any century was better than this *****y day and age.
You need a reality check, we've never had it this good. Instantaneous communication, life saving healthcare, inexpensive entertainment, non-existent discrimination, the list goes on. Why would you hate the time we live in?

Everything around us is all just a mess, ofc there are positive things about this day, but most of it is screwed. Had I been given the chance, I would never in a million years, choose the 21st century to live in.

I wish I was born sometime before this century. If only I'd have died before this century. This century is a joke, and a complete mess. I hate most things nowadays. Why the hell couldn't I have been born in 1915 or something? 🤬🤬🤬🤬

How can you say that when there are still 79 years left in the century?

I've given you good points about being alive in this day and age, so how about listing things worse nowadays when compared to a century ago?

OK. For starters, the LGBTQ community and prides. Freaks believing there are more than one gender, I'm sorry, but you can only be male or female, and that's a fact. You can say anything without hurting a snowflake. Old Christmas songs and classic TV shows are now forbidden. I blame the LGBT community for ruining this century, if it hadn't been for them, I probably would be happy.

Given you were born in this century, you're under 21, you've hardly experienced life. The first step to solving your issues is taking accountability for them and not passing off the blame to everyone and everything else, and eventually figuring out the solutions to your problems for yourself.

There's a term for people who think that kind of thing.

To be perfectly honest, I can’t stand it either. My social inept generation, reliance on digital technology for everything, crime rates, fashion, music, everything being overpriced, and just people being so ignorant towards what goes on in the UK… I would’ve been happier if I lived my teenage life during the ‘70s or ‘80s. There’s nothing I can do though. As a Catholic, I know that we’ve have been warned of a decline of Christian faith and the rise of false prophets. As of 2024, I’ve seen far too much of this. It’s a shame to Christianity butchered so much. All in all, this current state of the world doesn’t surprise me that much. It’s just in complete shambles. I can only hope and pray for change.
