Summary

If you wanted to destroy young men in the 21st century, how would you do it? I d tell them never take risks, play it safe, stay in their little bubble, never daring to chase anything meaningful. I d convince them it s fine to only act when they feel like it, make discipline feel unnatural, like it s too much to ask, let them rely on their parents for everything, so they never truly grow up. Then I'd sever their faith. Tell them belief is weakness. Convince them nothing really matters except chasing the next thrill.
