I hate to be a crude materialist about this, but it’s really the lead poisoning…that stuff was everywhere, an entire generation mass poisoned by one of the most insidious neurotoxins known to humankind, and the older they get, the more the literal brain damage manifests itself in more destructive and antisocial ways
I knew about lead poisoning growing up, but a few years ago after looking into the new research on lead exposure, I think the scale and true scope of the catastrophe has never been fully accounted for, imagine a scenario where hundreds of millions of people unknowingly imbibed a substance that would render them into borderline sociopaths with poor impulse control? Well that shit happened and it went on for decades
I just posted something similar. It’s not a meme, there have been studies that show most of them had it. It also made them really succeptible to media programming.

Now we have microplastic poisoning, I wonder how Gen Z will be in 30 years…
