2. Boredom
Modern life is very boring.
The majority of people in any society today, whether capitalist or "socialist," are MCWS (middle class wage slaves) or BNPWS (barely-not-poor wage slaves). It's important for society to be structured this way so that they work and pay taxes to support the system.
(Sorry Marxists, but wage slavery seems to be here to stay...forever XD)
(Note to retarded conservatives: Please do not cite the retarded "statistics" that "the rich pay 70-80% of the taxes" or whatever your talking point masters have told you to regurgitate because you have a different definition of "rich" from me.
When I use the word "rich" I mean "the really wealthy" = 50M+ net worth and those people do not work, thus they pay very little income taxes. Yes, even the people making $900K/yr from income are not "rich." So **** off)
MCWS and BNPWS go to school for anywhere from 12 - 20 years depending on their temperament, aptitude, financial situation, and personal interests, and then work for "Da Man."
"Da Man" is either
A) some faceless corporation with thousands of shareholders (consistently hoping for stock price increase)
or
B) some penny pinching small business "entrepreneur" attempting to sell the latest FOMO product - supplements, protein powders/shakes, Amazon/eBay eCommerce "courses," solar panels, beard cream, hydroponics equipment, selfie sticks - whatever is "in style" so they can maximize profits and hope for a quick retirement for the purpose of avoiding (A)
Basically this is the game. You go to some public or private school and then try to make a lot of $$$.
(For "Da Man" BTW, not for yourself - that wouldn't be condoned by your masters. Ever wonder why there are thousands of "licensed" occupations these days?)
Much wow. Much excite. Throw in some drugs and alcohol, prostitutes/"Tinder swiping" whores, Hollywood superhero movies, rodeos, etc.
Now you might wonder how this is any different from societies of previous eras.
Well, people back then were more ignorant as science wasn't really available. Possibly less retarded (as you REALLY needed street smarts in the absence of institutionalized education, which can to a certain degree compensate for a lack of intelligence), but they believed in all sorts of superstitions.
I am not inclined to believe life was less boring back then. Definitely more precarious...but it's still boring today, nonetheless, so I am in perfect reason to describe this as one of the pillars of "modernity" - boring as ****.
