and kinda sad... have you noticed that wherever you look, at least or maybe especially online, so many of us seem to have the habit of putting ourselves down... calling ourselves names, being means to ourselves.. me too, even at this age... I am not proud and should not act this way, even if I believe it.. I do know why, we really are insecure, because of this crazy society and the toxic media making money by making us miserable.. because of the mean people around us irl too ofc.. but it's just interesting and saddening to me........ I wish I could be okay with myself and stop acting and talking about myself like this.. I've got a long way to go...... so yea thoughts?

i think people in Gen Z do tend to start expressing our lack of self confidence with humor and i'm one of the those who definitely does. i think i just prefer it to feeling so down about myself. and even though it might be toxic to see everyone constantly making fun of themselves, it can be nice to see that you're not the only one who struggles with self confidence and self love.
in the end what is important as a result of those jokes is supporting each other through our struggles to love ourselves and not bringing each other down further.

I always do this. Mostly because I compare myself to others a lot.
No thanks to mass media, portraying the norm folks as inferior to celebrities or whatnot.
