We've gone through the same conversation many times on this forum. At this point, many people can already guess who will say what. The scripts don't change much from thread to thread.
That being said, this guy is clearly crying out in pain. No more, and no less. There is no way anybody can argue with the fact that many are in pain, and that the pain is real. This pain is not scripted, nor is it generated with an agenda in mind.
The issues he is bringing up are real. Our community does have a problem with disaffected youth struggling struggling with various emotional aches and disconnection, and both the causes of these and the symptoms that this manifests itself via are horrifying.
What exactly the cause of this is, who is to blame, what is to be done to deal with this, and how not to throw out the baby with the bathwater (to crudely utilize a common metaphor); is the question so controversial and difficult.
As is common whenever there is a catastrophe, many jump on the bandwagon to forward their own agenda. Whenever there is a devastating natural disaster, organizations spring up claiming to be helping the victims. Millions of people donate money to them, which they promptly run away with. Humans have a natural inclination to want to help. To an enterprising person, public pain and concern equal opportunity.
This is a very base example, but there are many where the lines are more blurred.
I'll stop here for now, before this post gets even more controversial.
