Interesting perspectives. Lower level entry level jobs went way of the Dodo bird in the late 1990s. Late Gen X was denied entry level opportunities then and it has just accelerated since through the younger generations.
The older Boomer generations see the cancel culture being propagated by the younger generations and don't want to be cancelled by being fired losing their retirement. Better to go out quietly with grace than deal with protestors or a big bruhaha.
always enjoy your talks, perspective and analysis - even when I don't fully agree its insightful, well spoken and positive. Please keep producing - we need more people like you out in the ether.
I’m new to your work but greatly support it. I’m a boomer and have been a bridge builder in many ways over the years, having lived, traveled and worked in different countries and cultures. My professional career is in finance and banking, and I can immediately see the benefits of your information across the organizations and cultures I have been a part of, and is true even much more so today. Well done, Ashley.
Agree with most of your talk except, I think gen Z is more unable to perceive economics and technology. Attention traps like tiktok are capturing and directing their salience towards noise, and useful economic signals go unobserved. You also need to have some purchasing power to understand money, and not much money for gen Z and purchasing power slipping away rapidly due to poor central monetary policies particularly post-1971. Millennials have the highest technological perception (not digital social, but rather technical expertise) because they grew up throughout the maturation of the internet and understood how to use and navigate computers in a lower level technical sense, whereas Gen Z largely exists digitally solely within walled garden applications, in polished UIs with any sense of underlying operating system fundamentals stripped away from their purview. Institutions and digital manipulators also hadn't yet come to terms with the new Gutenberg Press moment. Just some thoughts. Thanks!
You are absolutely right, mate! I also think that about the social intuition in digital environment part, that gen Z, me being a part of it even though i don't use social medias that much, because i think they are in a way absurd and full with the shit of people, wasn't spot on. Gen Z is affected by social medias the most, and unfortunately a lot of them don't realise that they are just being made the same by those social medias, it's an absolute disgrace, because they don't have to show they're face, they can take comments back, delete parts of their profile, that they don't like, activities which are far more complex in real life. It's simply a trap of the consciousness. Of course they'll have a better understanding of it, because they grew with it, but that isn't the main social outlet. A lot of the social media part by the way isn't even being social, it's more about scrolling addiction. Or maybe im a little bit confused... Something in that realm.
This was a fantastic. As a Gen-z (1997) I can see all of this playing out this way. And to me, in LATAM, there is a fascinating example of this in the Presidential elections in Argentine. Milei is a liberal politicians who have Millennials & Gen Z taking the lead in his campaign and they have manage to turn him into a kind of savior that can change the fate of their country. They are maximizing the use of Tiktok and social media to reach the max amount of people possible

Great video. Do you host a discord or any other platform, like an online book club, to discuss these ideas? I'm not an economist, but I'm fascinated by the way you seem to be developing clean and intuitive abstractions on global social dynamics. The concept of salience maps and network power have thoroughly worked their way into my everyday way of thinking about the world. I originally clicked on your channel expecting the title to be hyperbole, but I'm quite sure now it's not. Thanks for the videos!
That would be great if someone organized such a thing! I probably won't be able to join this academic year, but could join you next summer. If someone decides to organize, I'd be happy to post to the community board.
@@thenewenlightenmentwithash8465 I'm a grad student in a science field, so I can relate to the semester crunch. It will be at least next Spring before I could put effort into it myself, but I'll contact you if I'm able to make something happen then
I wouldn't want it to be a false start or flash in the pan, but if others are interested I could set up a less formal groupme or discord in the mean time.
Im a baby boomer. I saw his podcast on the 4th turning. I found it to be very factual. About history facts. Giving examples of 20 block historys in those 80 years.
Assuming older employees have less risk bc they are closer to retirement is an error. Benefits are very important as you get older! If an older employee is let go and they don’t have health insurance, then an accident or health crisis could ruin them and the future for their heirs. Also older workers don’t have 15+ years of earning potential to recover from those loses. Ageism is real and it’s very difficult to get a high paying job in your 50s or 60s.
You missed his research about Generations which came 1st so its typical behavior of each archetype. Homelands should be similar to past Artists, Clay and Webster, Martin L. King. Compare Boomers to Lincoln, FDR, Dublin. Nomads like Captain Kidd, Al Capone, Babe Ruth, Washington, Grant, IKE. So you are too focused on Crisis.

Exactly. The thoughts are well put out and has the a hint of academic thinking-through.
This is fresh, interesting perspective. Thanks for posting.
Hi Ashley, thoughtful and thought-provoking well done from your #1 Aussie fan.😅😂😊
If the power goes out,. Everyone's screwed except for Gen X.
our great teacher is back now

She used to do zoom meetings every 2 weeks before. Now she stopped because of work but hopefully the group will come back 🙏
@@InkaHacker Thanks. Maybe someone could start a group chat or forum of some kind if Ashley is on board with it.

Great show.
I think new media and design will be key to that last section of your video :)
