RE: Let’s talk about emotional immaturity

in #psychology6 years ago

I have made several publications about it, and it is something that I have noticed that is common nowadays; Emotional immaturity is something more and more abundant, and it is leading us down a path we don't want to cross, giving rise to a generation of "victims" who reject personal responsibility and blame their failures on factors external to them like the State, the System, the Heteropatriarchy, etc.

I don't want to reduce the issue only to politics, because it is certainly something more complex than that and affects all aspects of life in society, but it is clear that this lack of maturity and this irresponsible and childish behavior are the main drivers, the coal that ignites the engine, of all the progressive movement that is taking place in the West.

Yes I have also noticed there is a trend of young people (not all) adopting attitudes like the one you are describing.

There are countries where opportunities are pretty much destroyed by the government, but those countries aren't the ones in which these things are happening. I know you are talking about movements like the antifa thugs in America college campuses, that ironically behave like fascist even if their name says the opposite, and this is indeed an issue but I don't know how serious it really is because they have been losing in all the important elections in America (in Mexico there is now a dangerous president sadly).

If you have a publication explaining a potential link between emotional immaturity and political tendencies I would love to check it.

Cheers @vieria!

Well, I don't directly link emotional immaturity with political tendencies, I only link the lack of responsibility with the Marxist and neo-Marxist left, although it is easy to notice through the observation that these people tend to be emotionally immature and to behave like children.
