Welcome, stranger! I hope you’re not working for the CIA! - Dr. Korsakov

….Hello?…

 Is this thing working? 

Well, if it is… 

Hello World! I’m Dr. Korsakov, founder of the Sonder Time-Travel Project. 

Recently, my team and I have developed a fully functional “Time Machine” for observation & comparison purposes. You seem confused; allow me to elaborate further…

Teenagers and young adults have been a prevailing concern to generations of old. The concept of “juvenoia” is absolutely nothing new. There’s concrete evidence of older generations’ mostly unfounded apprehension of “the youth”  dating before the term “generation” was even coined. People are always “worried about the youth”—- but how much of this worry is irrational? How much of this worry is simply due to aging? 

 (Jeez…. How many times have I used quotation marks so far?)

My colleague and I have decided to put this question to the test. Is the modern youth truly doomed, or are the elderly dementedly yelling into the abyss? 

In order to find out how really tragic the average Gen Z-er is, I have taken two youths; one from the 70s, and one from the 2000s, and I have placed them in the year 2024. Will they be smarter? Is this all just elderly paranoia? These are the REAL questions, folks!


P.S. I’m really hoping it’s just paranoia of the youth. I’m betting on your intelligence, Gen Z. 

Don’t let me down.
