That may be true, but if the collective society decided to make housing unaffordable for the younger generation then they've decided to live with the inevitable shenanigans.

Counterpoint: if you rent, put everything down the drain you can. Stop taking your garbage out, just blend it and down the drain it goes. Everything goes down the drain. It's like a magic hole that erases all of your sins!!
Only poor it down the drain if you rent! Never when you own!
I found it too big and clumsy, but I'm glad others liked it!
Some countries manage to enforce it better. But I agree it would be more difficult to enforce this in the west.
That is not my suggestion at all. When I can help, I do. When I can say something, I do. Still, we should not overgeneralize. Everybody is an individual and should be treated as such.
I understand that.
Then good news! There are people doing this. I'm in a discord where some people work on a bot that basically calls out that stuff on reddit. Making the bot is straightforward, the problem is it keeps getting banned for arguing. The hardest part is keeping the reddit account alive.
And in the west they seem to be getting worse. Anecdotal, but that's what I've been experiencing.
I got beat and blooded multiple times in highschool locker rooms. I'd estimate a lot higher than 30% of people are the issue.
I don't interact with anybody who does this. Really, outside of my wife and my close family I don't interact with anybody. Partially due to being assaulted multiple times, my anxiety goes through the roof.
It's horrible how some people treat each other, but understand just because I'm perceived to be part of a specific gender doesn't mean I have meaningful opportunity to do anything about it. I'm just a human, and while I agree other humans are often bad, it's out of my scope to do anything really impactful. I understand what is happening. It's much much worse than you state. It's worse in ways I probably would get banned for typing out on this site. Worse than you can possibly imagine. That's something society needs to address, and as an individual I cannot convince other people how bad it is or how extreme of action we need to take. And not for lack of trying.
It's good threads like this spread awareness, but reduction will not further the cause of improving the situation.
Good. Disrupt the system. Until young people can purchase homes at similar rates to healthy countries then young people should escalate civil disobedience.
