  1. The question itself is the answer……modern society is the answer. With such a level of technological and scientific progress, turning the planet into a “garbage can” overgrown with fungi from nuclear tests, promoting the destruction of morals and morality in favor of the thirst for profit and power at any cost, replacing family values with LGBT people, speaks about the process of losing rational thinking…..somehow everything is not logical, a paradox.

    • Young people. Every few years, the media and the public are thrilled to beat the timpani: hooray, a generation of free people has finally grown up in Russia, who think and feel differently from us, a generation of losers who could not build a new Russia. They are smart and incredibly versatile, they are on par with those technologies that are difficult for us to quickly master!.. Either hopes are poured out for decadents: those who were born in the 70s-80s-90s; then they use sociology-X, Y, Z…

    5 years pass, a generation of future geniuses merges some protest and sacrifices their ideals for the sake of the next petty-bourgeois values. This was the case in the “noughties”: as a result, we lost the opposition in parliament and opposition TV. So it was in the middle of the “tenth”: now the remnants of the opposition are finished off, VKontakte has been expropriated from Pavel Durov, people are jailed for reposts in social networks, and the annexation of a peninsula there, the Donbass and Syria has caused a powerful patriotic surge in society. Most likely, this will be the case in the early 20s; it is only unknown what (and, in particular, what platform for discussions)will be used. we'll lose this time.
    * Women's beauty and sex appeal. It is amazing how in the era of winning (if not already winning in the Western world) feminism and advanced contraception, men selflessly indulge female commercialism and play by the rules that were relevant 200 years ago, when women did not have modern opportunities for self-realization.

    Men don't even require women to split their restaurant bills. Men delight in corrupting women, making them indulgences, presenting them with gifts and bragging about it-from the iPhone (always the latest model, the highest chic — with the maximum amount of memory) to their own business.

    Women have learned to manipulate men without attracting the attention of the paramedics, and are only too happy to play their game in bed and in the kitchen, pouring the last of their blood into their own bodies.

    Women give up their careers and are convinced that a man should be cooler than her, even if she is the top, and men are happy to feel like an alpha male and a leader who has power.

    However, even if you are not a socialite and not a party girl, but visually pretty, you will still not be left without male attention in a large city. For sure, you will draw a wonderful man who will take you to Gelendzhik and generally knows how to take care of you.

    Paraphrasing the famous fragment from the movie ” Beware of the Car”:
    ― I need a strong man with a solid backbone, capable of action!”
    ― I'm a strong man, but what happened?

    We don't teach men to wash dishes or tell them why it's important.

    We do not teach men to raise children and appreciate the time spent with a child.

    We don't teach women to value their intelligence and develop their talents.

    We admire women's beauty and do everything to make a woman want to be a doll, a capricious courtesan or a muslin lady.

    And why such sacrifices? Sex is generally overvalued, and bitcoin and oil were nowhere near it. 15 minutes of pleasure, four to five times a day, a nice smelling, soft and exciting body… But still. In 9 out of 10 cases, a woman will pretend that she likes it.

    It's not love, it's not passion, it's not attraction.

    Male beauty, by the way, costs two kopecks here-after all, men are in a state of passion, their eyes are filled with testosterone, and their brains are busy thinking about how much more money they need to get into a woman and in which flower shop the best assortment is.
    * The fact of having children. Actually, the cult of procreation and thoughtless ovulation of both sexes make possible the previous point, along with everyday male helplessness.The mind is incomprehensible, what is so great about a spinogryz, especially when you consider
    No. 1 the deplorable state of Russian infrastructure (when hundreds of thousands of dollars need to be invested in a child out of your own pocket) and social protection institutions,
    No. 2 infernal stratification of society and
    #3 the responsibility that falls on your shoulders, because if you really love your son or daughter and think with your own head, then you will be horrified by the conditions that the child needs to create so that he can realize himself, not earn complexes in childhood and avoid brainwashing.

    Without iron self-confidence and an extra million in your pocket (and this is two years of not eating, not drinking, not paying for housing and communal services at a salary of ₽40k), there is a direct road to childfree, but how many women are inspired to ” give birth, you fool”, and how many men are asked “how are you going to feed your family?!”Eh?
    * �Male power.
    * Big female breasts and a long penis. The bust loses its former shape over time, and it's hard to run with it (3+). A long penis does not always fit in the vagina (any elasticity has a limit, and this is not 20 cm, but less) and, sorry, the mouth: a classic analogy, try to swallow a banana so that you do not throw up.

    At the same time, if breast fetishization is understandable — it is still visible-then penis passions are artificially inflated by the porn industry.
    * Self-development, posturing asceticism.
    ― I don't watch TV, there are only talking heads and everything is according to the script.
    ― I read books, they develop analytical thinking and imagination.
    ― I do not sit in social networks at the workplace, it increased my efficiency by 800%.

    A huge amount of ” advice” on self-development is simply absurd, not supported by representative life practice.

    Drinking a glass of carrot juice every morning and smiling in the mirror won't change your life.

    At the same time, “not like everyone else” is also managed by those who have turned nonconformity into marketing.

    And the actual concept of self-development is flawed and miserable to the point of impossibility, because it does not teach a person to be an adult, but creates an illusion.
    * Wealth. No amount of money will make you happier until you learn how to invest more money and start investing in personal cultural education.

    Buxom women, expensive cars, personal yachts and planes, access to the best clinics in the world, luxury apartments… — it doesn't help if you confuse Monet and Manet and think Bosch is a home appliance manufacturer.

    Therefore, patronage is well developed abroad (although there are also nouveau riches there), but in Russia these traditions have gone along with the monarchy and will not take root in any way.

  2. In my opinion, the belief that technological progress will change a person and relationships in society for the better — wars will stop and people will become negotiable.

    The experience of millennia does not confirm this. The 10 commandments and the 7 deadly sins are still relevant. All gadgets and strays that promote communication do not eliminate the contradiction.

    A person has become at the head of the food chain because he has learned to kill from a distance and not only when hungry. Today, you can kill at any distance, but that doesn't change anything.

  3. Professional sports. Sooner or later, people will come to the conclusion that it is not worth spending your life trying to run the fastest in the world or jump above last year's champion.

    Sports for health and pleasure, of course, will always be there and, I hope, will become even more popular.

    1. Freedom in its most common modern sense. Unfortunately, I will not be able to fully express my point of view in the way I want it to be expressed.

    2. The meaning of anything. The meaning of any concept, whether it is solving an equation, washing your face in the morning, or life itself, if it exists, is necessarily beyond it and lies in the reason for what is happening. One way or another, the meaning of any concept can be reduced to the meaning of the existence of our universe with current physical laws. And this meaning is beyond our comprehension. And it is far from a fact that our universe did not appear by chance, so you needlessly overload yourself with existential questions)

  4. There is nothing overrated, but there is something undervalued.�

    Society is divided into layers. We, the majority of people, I believe, share a gaping gap with people who are above the middle class. Every year it increases imperceptibly. Or, do you think that the “Avengers” franchise, cheap novels that later make movies, or modern popular performers are of interest to anyone other than those who consume and those who sell?�

    I don't think. Art is on the verge of extinction, and people's heads have long been clouded by new products and other junk.�

    Now in society, as I wrote at the beginning, you are more likely to meet something undervalued or someone undervalued than overrated.�

    Take for example the director Yuri Bykov.�

    It's a shame that such a person decided not to make movies anymore.�

    Goodness.

  5. the value of consumption-Fromm once remarked that modern people imagine �Paradise is like living in a huge supermarket with new things every week, and enough money to buy everything new.�

    Material goods do not make a person happier, sometimes even on the contrary, they make him even more unhappy, dissatisfied, so the role of material goods is greatly exaggerated.

    And in general, as Christ put it, man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God that proceeds from His mouth. In other words, for life and satisfaction, a person needs bodily food to maintain his physical body and food for the spirit, heart and mind to keep his inner man in a healthy state. Failure to accept or not know this truth pushes a person to various kinds of substitutes and surrogates. Advertising and promotion of these substitutes exaggerates their value, but the general trend is such that everyone seems to feel it, but they don't always have the courage to admit it to themselves.

    1. Female virginity

    2. Someone else's opinion

    3. Prestige of work (you can even work as a gardener, if it's yours — enjoy it)

    4. People's authority. In the end, any idol can become a bad person for you. Always have your own opinion

    5. Early baptism and circumcision

    6. Strict school uniforms

    7. Bread to eat

    8. Sex, as such, and the porn industry in general, but this is a very sensitive topic, in fact

    9. Kinship ties (a kindred spirit is not included in the package)

    10. Perhaps the column “nationality” in the documents of the former CIS, which does not give any privileges

    Well, and a lot more 🙂
