Did you know that one of the main differences separating humans from primates is "Extended adolescence"? Take with a grain of salt but yeah some people claim its true:
>"Over the course of the past 1.5 million years, the forces of evolution inserted an extra six years between infancy and pre-adolescence—a childhood—into the life of our species. And that changed everything."
>
>"Why should adding a childhood help us escape extinction’s pitiless scythe? Looked at logically, it shouldn’t. All it would seem to do is lengthen the time between birth and mating, which would slow down the clamoring business of the species’ own continuance. But there was one game-changing side effect of a long childhood. Those six years of life between ages 1 and 7 are the time when we lay the groundwork for the people we grow up to become. Without childhood you and I would never have the opportunity to step away from the dictates of our genes and develop the talents, quirks, and foibles that make us all the devastatingly charming, adaptable, and distinctive individuals we are."
>
>"Childhood came into existence as the result of a peculiar evolutionary phenomenon known generally as neoteny. The term comes from two Greek words, neos meaning 'new' (in the sense of 'juvenile') and teinein meaning to “extend,” and it means the retention of youthful traits. In the case of humans, it meant that our ancestors passed along to us a way to stretch youth farther into life."
>
>"More than a million years ago, our direct ancestors found themselves in a real evolutionary pickle. One the one hand, their brains were growing larger than those of their rain forest cousins, and on the other, they had taken to walking upright because they spent most of their time in Africa’s expanding savannas. Both features would seem to have substantially increased the likelihood of their survival, and they did, except for one problem: Standing upright favors the evolution of narrow hips and therefore narrows the birth canal. And that made bringing larger-headed infants to full term before birth increasingly difficult."
>
>"If we were born as physically mature as, say, an infant gorilla, our mothers would be forced to carry us for 20 months! But if they did carry us that long, our larger heads wouldn’t make it through the birth canal. We would be, literally, unbearable."
Heh. They made a funny there.
Anyways, not to encourage the wasteful "extended-extended adolescence" that has lazy 27 year olds... dysfunctionally crawling around the worst, most deranged corners of the internet, playing run-n-gun PS4 all day and masterbating like they're training for an Olympic sport (hey, we all been there, champ. Save some for later you're going to ruin your 'timing' there) all musty and bitter and lonely and locked away in their own personal hermit kingdoms, but... where was I? Oh yeah, there 's a few "Life Cycle Charts" that point in this direction.
You've seen these? Usually famous authors or thinkers chart out "stages of life" on how 'human life' generally plays out? The stages common to many if not most people? (One of the biggest, modern misconceptions is that we're all autonomous gadget-nodes and "age is nothing but a number"! What horseshit. I bought into t as well, pedes. Trust me, it's not true. Don't go through life backwards, as many unfortunates already have...listening to these idiot Leftists!)
Anyways, many agree that the teenage and young adult years are where you store up ammo, or information, to be used later in the battlefield of society...fighting to defend an individual viewpoint that you've fund through the initial forays into the 'real world' and that (hopefully) moves us all forward a step or two. That's Joseph Campbell's "Hero's Journey" in a very small nutshell.
This could explain why Greta T, with her extremely unpalatable, hyperbolic, clearly coached and nonsensical "activism" seems to many to be a sign of alcohol fetal syndrome or something equally unpleasant. We intuitively sense she's got her stages mixed up and is lecturing from a point of cmomplete ignorance.
And why Barron comes off as a very stable genius...biding his time!
P.S. In Greta's defense, she's on a 'side' that literally rapes and kills kids in mines allover the world, ffs. Merely being used as a pawn to further brainwash other mindless children (no offense, we all started somewhere, though, amirite?) and feeding them hopes of stardom and very real ATTENTION and FAME (the most seductive of highs....I am told) for a few years then dumping them like last years Christmas tree (that you've shamefully hidden away in your basement because you got tied up last Dec/Jan and then were too ashamed to put it out on the street a doggone month and a half after Christmas so there was nothing else to do but go all in and wait a complete year to curb your extra dry Christmas tree!...when they no longer have that youngful glow and develop ideas of their own!
Good luck, Gurts! Gonna be rough for ya, champ, in a few years. Look up the fate of virtually every child star in history. It's grim. Do you blame Barron for avoiding all that? I don't!
Annd, another 30 minutes of my life down the drain. lol
He's incubating that massive brain of his. Watch!
