if the regime can't get "Gen Z" to have a "normal one" before they all turn 30, everything collapses btw
Being on Discord at age 11 likely has something to do with it. The one thing Twitch gets right is that you aren't smart enough to hide that you're not even a teenager; they will ban you for it. Discord should have the same thing; they have the same age ToS

This just isn’t true though, British emigration has always been overwhelmingly working class
It was seen as a safety valve for all the pressure built up from overpopulation in the Victorian period, much of the working class could actually lead decent productive lives in the dominions or US rather than living in miserable grinding poverty at home (and likely getting into trouble)
The ‘best, brightest and wealthiest’ weren’t leaving after WW2 either because they led comfortable lives. Why would they leave?
If anything, emigration says a lot about how much potential there is in the British lower and middle classes since they could build nations equally as impressive as Britain itself from nothing in such a short period of time
There was a period of time when everyone was "wet," and then they stopped being wet. Was that ever explained
I've posted about it before, but the threat of starvation was the motivator for almost all enlistments before conscription. It wouldn't be shocking if someone finally decided they could create a false scarcity event through the threat of freezers being off for 48+ hours
