"Zoomers are the first cohort to be fully immersed in the reality of generational downward mobility. While millenials will also earn less than their parents, they were formed under the expectations of America ascending to a kind of Post-History stasis where at worst their status and wealth was permanently locked in.
Zoomers have none of these illusions and rightfully reject the obsolete and facile narratives they’re expected to swallow and obey to make sense of their lives and ambitions. Those are dead narratives. They do not reflect reality at all. They do not reflect the deranged cultural and political circumstances they’re expected to navigate from a position of negative expected value for pretty much any career path outside of genius tech outlier.
Scolding them is a stupid and pointless exercise that will only drive them further into despair and resentment.
Yes. Don’t be resentful. Don’t give in to despair. Be resourceful and lay a claim on your own life. But it’s also going to require offering Zoomers much better and updated narratives and opportunities for how to accrue status and wealth and the basic conditions for living a dignified life for the average guy who is not an outlier tech genius.
There are short, medium, and long term fixes for this. Some straightforwardly political. Some more complex cultural questions. But the implicit promise of boomer America, even Gen X America, is no longer viable, and that broken promise has absolutely nothing to do with Zoomers themselves."

American wages are not keeping up with inflation.
US average hourly earnings adjusted for inflation fell -0.3% YoY in September, marking the 5th consecutive decline in real wages.
This follows a -0.2% YoY decrease in August, -0.3% in July, and -0.8% in June, the largest decline since May 2023.
This marks a sharp deterioration from +1.3% YoY growth in real wages recorded in February.
This all comes as US CPI inflation has remained above +3.0% for 6 consecutive months, the longest such streak since mid-2024.
Meanwhile, in nominal terms, average hourly earnings rose +3.0% YoY in September, their slowest growth since May 2021.
Nominal wage growth has been in a downtrend since March 2025, when earnings grew +4.2% YoY.
Inflation is eroding the spending power of Americans.

🦠 🇷🇺 🇺🇸 US closely monitoring case of lab worker who ‘possibly’ died of plague in Siberia, says Rubio
Darya Shipilova, a 28-year-old employee at the anti-plague institute in the city of Irkutsk, became ill at work. She died two days later on the night of 2 October at a regional hospital in the nearby town of Shelekhov.
It remains unclear how she became unwell. Unconfirmed reports in Russian media have suggested Shipilova may have been infected after a mishap at the laboratory. Officials have not publicly confirmed that account.
Local media have reported that the institute has subsequently been locked down, with staff forced to sleep on the floor and on chairs. “They’ve been isolating everybody since Friday – more than 60 people,” one relative, Roman, told the news portal Siberia.Realities.
He said family members were allowed to drop off food at a checkpoint while tests were carried out inside the building. Similar quarantine restrictions have been placed on several ...
