If you wanted to destroy young men, how would you do it? First, I'd rob them of purpose. I'd feed them comfort, make them allergic to discomfort, whisper that mediocrity is safe, and ambition is overrated. Then I'd reward pleasure over purpose. Make them crave quick highs, entertainment, comfort food, cheap distractions. All while their potential rots. Make them addicted to likes, approval, afraid to stand alone for what they believe. And I'd tell them never take risks, never daring to chase anything meaningful.
