I think we just want to feel something, and in a world that asks us to be so emotionally detached we spend our free time indulging in these emotional extremes that aren't our own until it becomes a commentary on itself.

[@Person-275]

Its also that as the world we are aware of becomes greater in scope, our individual lives feel less and less significant, causing these emotional moments, no matter what they are caused by, to become a large part of what help us accept that we all still have our own meaning as individuals

[@colerinehart1938]

This is dumb. The world is not asking you to be emotionally detached, it’s just easy to be lazy and isolated. It’s easier to watch a tiktok than to do something valuable or meaningful, but it’s not what’s going to make you “feel something.”

[@hmalba7864]

I think for a lot of zoomers, it's just about when we were developing and growing up. Being born post 2000 is a strange experience. You can clearly see the way things were pre-9/11, pre-internet, pre-social media, and you grow up with the lessons of the last generation that already feel dated. I wasn't bullied in high school by jocks, I was bullied by having my address leaked on 4Chan. We grew up seeing the next shooting, the next massacre, how terrible the world is while also being told we'll have to be the ones to fix it. We grew up in a world where everyone's trying to get our attention at all times, advertisers, religions, organizations, individuals, everyone wants our attention span at all times. The Internet isn't a commodity anymore, it's an essential tool to navigate your day to day life. All while being told we're just dumb and young and told all the mistakes we shouldn't make by people who grew up in a different world from us. It's hard not to feel like we're going into the next big change all by ourselves, what do the last generation know about AI or deepfakes? We barely understand it ourselves. I remember growing up seeing the character of the old person who simply didn't care anymore, didn't care what people thought of them, didn't care about the little problems in life, because they had already lived their life and could look back on their life fondly. It made me think not caring was the solution, that burying my illogical feelings in favor of pragmatism was the way to go about things. I was mocked for my hobbies, and God forbid I showed any kind of vulnerability. What I didn't get at the time was that not caring was the worst thing I could have done, and now it feels like the only approach I know. And I know I'm not alone in this. I just can't get over this reaction, how younger people told the adults they were told they could trust about their problems, about how they're scared about the future, about how they aren't happy and they don't know why, about they feel alone despite being so connected and their reaction was to mock them for it. Regardless of how pointless their problems may been, what kind of message does that send? How can you possibly expect your kids to want to open up to you if you can't even help them with this "meaningless" problem? I'm honestly not surprised that dopamine stimulation plays out the way it does on TikTok. Sorry for the wall of text. I just feel like there's this universal sense of isolation and anxiety running through zoomers, and they feel they have no one to go to. Gotta focus on yourself. Young love and pursuing your dreams were the mistakes of the last generation, we have our own to confront.

[@colem209]

[@amuzak9063]

Sounds rough. I was born in 2000, and I feel like I just narrowly avoided this. In the sense that I was just barely mature enough to realize tiktok or any of these 20 second clip apps aren't for me. I would consider myself lucky. I fully agree with everything you've said and would like to add a little bit more hope to it. There's a saying from my homeland: *it's sunrise when you wake up* (bonus points for anyone who's able to guess the homeland). The idea is if you've got this much awareness about your situation, there's a lot you can do to fix it. A lot of it is realising there are more opportunities around the corner than you'd expect. Actively dig around for things rather than waiting for the right moment to make something of your life. In the age of everyone being connected, it's easier than ever. And with so much of the younger population stuck on their joy thief smartphones, you're more likely to succeed just by popping your head out of the water. To whoever is reading this, stay strong. Figure out what you want from life before it flashes away. Make a plan with small and simple steps to get there. And don't be afraid of asking for help. Good luck

I think that younger people having “death anxiety” has do do with a large chunk of your adolescence or young adulthood being spent in a multi-year lockdown during a worldwide pandemic.

The economy and politics also feel way more chaotic, and people in positions of power have never been more immoral and corrupt while getting away with it, and people getting more and more frustrated or apathic - plus the whole climate change thing which ticks down in my mind, slowly deleting my future. I legimately don't want to imagine a world in 2050, I don't think we'd have sorted any of our shit by then and I don't want to imagine the state we leave our own planet in.

[@mac_sour]

@@jcmcgee1573 sometimes i think about how me and my father and his father were raised, and one day i realized that i think the internet is going to be really difficult to navigate for today's generation. the fact that everything is so open and accessible is a little scary to me, but if i had to regulate my child's access to that, i feel like all of his peers would absolutely make fun of him and make him feel horrible for it, because that's the reality of this generation. i've seen it happen with some of my aunt's and my brother's older kids born in the 2010s, it's honestly fucking ruthless how some of these original ipad kids can be if you don't have access to a smartphone or youtube/tiktok. that's why i usually don't stop him but just supervise what he's doing, and that seems to work for me.

"Oh but you didn't grow up living in a bomb shelter" dude do everyone a favour and shut up, stop gatekeeping which groups of people get to be sad about their circumstances. yeah I'm sure growing up during a famine was so hard for them, definitely harder than those who grew up to be taken onto slave ships and were whipped and tortured by white men. your argument sucks, you need to stop invalidating people's struggles just because you think some group of people had it worse. least delusional middle aged asmon viewer.

the weird thing about gen z nostalgia is we have nostalgia for a time we never experienced. everything we can remember has an undertone of collapse and disfunction especially when looked at through more experienced eyes that we want to go back to a time that we didnt even know to get away from it

[@sweetchicken2316]

I think gen z developed their early nostalgia because of how fast our lives move. With the speed of the internet rapidly picking up right as we were growing up, we are exposed to more and more things. We have people are extremely talented, people extremely involved in activism, and we are always told that we have been left a world that is crumbling around us. There’s been this expectation that’s been built that gen z needs to change the world, or be an important person, otherwise our lives aren’t special. While we thrive in that environment, it makes us fear that life will eventually run out too fast and causes us to yearn for a time was much slower, where we could play Minecraft with our friends, laugh, and just be kids. Those days didn’t last long for gen z, with the world, economy, and people not in our favor, we’ve been pushed into an anxious cycle from a young age. My dad is an immigrant that has an American success story and does more than enough for me and my family, but because he understands the hardships of the world, he has pushed me and lectured me about making something out of myself since I was in 3rd grade. Ive never had a break because I constantly hear how homelessness is rising, the economy is getting worse, so I need to drown myself in work to secure the bare minimum and it doesn’t help when we are told that the earth is also dying, and it’s making a lot of gen z either nihilistic, nostalgic, or over zealous (this applies to people who obsess over social change, or incel bs). Core core or hope core, tries to give us a mental break from our fast paced lives and brain rot inducing Internet. Sorry if this doesn’t make since, this is all just stream of consciousness. In the end, the point is that gen z has both internal and societal pressure to do great things, causing us to believe that we aren’t enough for the world. This is the cause of the rise in depression, anxiety, and radical outbursts in denial (usually founded in self improvement or financial gain). Those videos might seem weird, but is a way for us to slow down the world, so we don’t feel left behind in every moment.

People are scared of death in the early 20s because there has been a world changing event every single year since we became adults.

[@thecluckster3908]

3:17 I think it’s of course because of the internet. It’s so easy now to easily see stuff from when we were kids, it’s so easy now to see videos of adults who miss when they were kids, which makes us think about it more.

“Why would a 21 year old be afraid of death?” As a 19 year old who’s been afraid of dying for years in my experience the reasonings change. Sometimes it’s the whole “If I won’t change the world and be remembered why even live?” Thing. sometimes I think how I spent my childhood being a loner and a homebody so now I have no social skills, I’ve pushed away everyone who cared about me so that they want as little to do with me as they can, and it’s completely my fault.

13:22 wild librarian spotting in chat

[@Lewtable]

3:20 I think it's based on many factors from things like the normalization of online social lives to economic downturns but also because they grew up after it became normal to be connected to the internet's constant flow of information at all times, something that can be devastating if you don't know the effects it have on your psyche or find it difficult to identify when you need to stop and go do something else. I grew up in the 90s and early 2000s and my childhood was mostly full of playing outside in the lush greenery during summers and playing games locally with friends on the winters, sometimes borrowing our local community building to have in-house LANs without our parents around. The world was a lot smaller and I could focus being a kid, as things should be. If I had grown up today I'd probably feel considerably more terrible too. There's a constant flow of information about the world's problem being transmitted to children that shouldn't have to worry about such things yet and it may make them feel mentally exhausted and older at an earlier point than previous generations because of stress. This "core core" thing might just be another shape of the common human concept of making light of a bad situation to feel better, or to not feel like you're alone / the only one feeling a certain way. I imagine coming generations may grow up with parents that are much more wary about giving them access to unrestricted online content as a result.

[@BrandonDoesAll]

I think this was one of the most refreshing videos of realizations

[@Akiras911]

I doubt atrioc will read this but to me corecore is more about the constant cycle of life and how it can be so draining, for many young people it feels as if they're just in a never ending loop, that they want something more than to just wake up, go to school (or work), and repeat. Its most commonly a video that people get after "doom scrolling" and realizing that they're wasting their lives away. This isnt that surprising considering that many young people feel pressured or expected to know what they want to do with their life and if they dont then they're "behind" and they feel like growing up will make them even more so in a cycle or rat race. you are right it's kind of nihilistic but its just a way of expressing their pent up emotions. Also those videos were horrible examples GH😭

[@UnuUO]

13:07 i had this thought when i was 13 and got incredibly depressed and have been on antidepressants ever since. im doing better now but my philosophy on it is still fucked. i eventually came to the conclusion that nothing will really matter in the end so you should do your best to make yourself and the people around you happy. it doesn’t cost you anything to let people know you love and appreciate them, and even when you’re gone they’ll remember you. it hit home again recently in February of this year when my older brother’s best friend was killed in a terrorist attack. he was an amazing person and will always be remembered by his friends and family. there will probably be at least five children named after him. i don’t want to be on that level of memorable but i hope when i die i’ll have left a positive impact on someone’s life and at this point that’s all we can really do. the world is kind of going to shit but we have to suck it up and move on and that’s okay because that’s life. anyway cool upload i liked this one a lot

I was having extreme legacy anxiety at 17. I was over worked doing both ap classes and a 35 hour a week restaurant job as a cook. I eventually fell months behind in class and my teacher gave me a week to fix it. I remember panicking and thinking I would never amount to anything or be able to afford college. I stayed up for 5 days straight fueled by expired adderall and monster in a manic episode to catch up. I got it all done but was sent home Friday on the verge of collapse. I couldn’t taste or smell anything and almost fell into the road multiple times on my 2 mile bike to school. I had to work 20 hours that weekend that started 3 hours after I got home from school. I hated myself the entire way. After that week I quit adderall and took my foot off the gas mentally. I’m 21 now making testing equipment for labs and factories around the world at peace minus the occasional finance spook. It’s not worth the pressure and do not let social media influence your decision making. I worked myself into frenzy thinking I had to do any of that, you don’t. There is always another way.

When you begin watching the video you think it's atrioc learning about core core. When you stop watching the video you realise this was the core core video all along.

I learned absolutely nothing, gained no insight, I will forget all of this in less than 10 hours great video

Shit man. Big A I almost died on August 6 2023, and I’m only 22 and my birthday was a few weeks before that. I lost my friend at the age of 20 when he went on a road trip and got in an accident. I got many questions answered that day and never take things for granted anymore. Spent 36 hours in the ER. Felt terrible for 2 months. I pray what happened to me doesn’t happen to any others. My left arm doesn’t feel the same but functions the same still. My stomach doesn’t feel the same but it is healed and doesn’t feel any different.

Achilles willingly and voluntarily exchanged his life to be remembered for eternity (so the story goes).

I always remember that one quote from house, something along “time doesn’t change anything, doing stuff does”

[@riskygamiing]

From what you've shown of Corecore, it's about chasing the feeling of pureness and life and removing oneself from the machine that is society. Commuting long hours, working, failing to date are all these unnecessary pressures that make life so difficult and it's nice to remember times that we are carefree and can let go. Times before social media took over, times when we were children and could just play with our toys and friends from down the street, and times when we could just enjoy ourselves. It's about the struggle to find happiness

2:58 I think Gen Z getting nostalgia so early is mostly due to the speed of technological development. Like quite a large portion of Gen Z went from the first iphone being announced as a kid to AI/Chatgpt being where it is in their early 20's.

[@pyronix]

people shit on gen z a lot but as an older millennial, like... i totally get the reason for this. i can't imagine growing up in the world that's just so fucked. honestly, the 90s were truly the best.

10:00 omg he literally says "Enjoy the little detours" while wearing an HxH hat HE KNOWS

[@sho3bum]

[@aidankelly1994]

ay atrioc, im an olympian- thats exactly how it is when you stop competing. People don't really talk about how much it sucks to stop being someone so thanks for sayin that.

For anybody like me, it's QKThr by Aphex Twin

[@shai5564]

The books of Job and Ecclesiastes in the Bible speak on this topic perfectly. Its heavy to think about though. I hope everyone from chat who reads this has a really peaceful evening 😊❤️

Core core is gen z trying to cope with pauses in overstimulation by making 2 second references for dopamine hits.

[@tibalt966]

Bro I’m being so called out as a 21 year old scared of death who wants to do something that will be remembered

[@sobbingmonkey128]

Atrioc is my version of corecore

[@ronancoster8910]

Genuinely I think a lot of this stuff is about a fear of death. I'm 17 turning 18 and I spend hours a day thinking about my own death. When you have that kind of a mentality everything feels finite and 'precious' but on the other hand like a waste. Spending an hour watching a tv show feels so meaningless given the relative shortness of your own existence.

[@flooterer]

bro i get nostalgic about shit i did in 2020, that was a good year for me

[@wrenwry]

2:59 really shows how quick things got messed up for us

[@SinkLikeStone]

Such a philosophical omission:” You got to make it count!” Remind me reading of Albert Camus.
