Ronja von Rönne präsentiert einen Essay, der vor Trotz nur so strotzt, auf gute Ratschläge verzichtet und gerade deshalb zum Nachdenken anregt. Eine Rezension

Dieses Buch widmet sich einem ambivalenten Phänomen. Denn Trotz kann eine Chance, aber auch hinderlich sein.

Google was taken over by Millennials. Proof: today’s Google Doodle.

A swedish DJ? Who’d be 32 today? Sure, he seems to be famous. But… if you look at today, there’s tons more important/interesting than a fuckin’ DJ.

Births? Peter Sellers! FFS!
Antonín Dvořák!

Just the most famous two. Nope, they don’t have a round anniversary (Sid Caesar almost has at 99 :D). But seriously, a millennial DJ versus those two?

Or… get political: Ford signed Nixon’s pardon on this day!

"Ah, but it's about mental health." Oh, fuck off. It's bullshit. Look at how VERY FUCKING TIME someone offs themselves (and you don't know my story, so fuck of preemptorily) we "Have to talk about this". EVERY FUCKING TIME. What does (or should) that telll you? IT'S USELESS! All this talk amounts to basically nothing. If it did, we wouldn't "have to talk about this" EVERY GODDAMN FUCKING TIME it happens. I'm so sick of it.

"But…" Yeah, but… first, dear GOOGLE, use your fucking millions and your influence TO CHANGE SOMETHING. Health care system in the US, for starters (oops, Avicii was swedish, in Sweden, I think the health care there is magnitudes better than in the US, AND HE HAD MONEY anyway). But changing the US health care system would be a MAJOR improvement, not jsut for mental health.

But do they do that? HELL NO! Because they're all grandstanding, all words, all show, but no actual action (it might cost money, serious money, and Google is just as shit as EVERY OTHER CORP. No exceptions, not on Google's level anyway). All their activism is show. Or actually malicious at the heart. But that's another story.
