This generation really hasn't got any solid ground. I mean, the '60s had solid ground, but that's gone now. So said one of the leading countercultural heroes of the 1960s. In the 1960s politics was at the center of all the protest and upheaval. Today, young adults want to get as far from politics as possible.
Young adults are passionately apathetic.
There are no us vs. them causes. They already have peace and freedom. But with that comes the monotonous undertone of the entirety of life. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to stand for, there's nothing even to look at, because the shock value is gone. The counterculture has been absorbed by the culture. . .
