Man, does CathInfo ever have a lot of traffic.

All the shills in *the land* gotta do something; they can't just bob their heads and watch unmentionable videos all day.

7.) Rock is dead. I can't believe I still see conversations of rock music within the Catholic community. It's the only time I ever see rock music discussed. Rap is the mainstream, has been for 20 years, and will continue to be.
Yeah, the fellow young men at my local SSPX chapel and other self-proclaimed "Traditionalists" all either have Instagram or are into rap... it's a troubling trend. Frankly, they don't act any different from the Novus Ordoists at all. I know conservative NOers who are more so fans of country (the music genre, and older country) and they're more well put together as young men than the so-called traditionalists that I know, even though they remain ignorant on the Crisis in the Church.

The Inquisitors discuss the state of young Catholics today, including family, earning a living, TikTok, brain rot, failures in education, social media, peers, and many other challenges facing today's Catholic youth. They also give tips on how to avoid getting blackpilled (giving up hope).

I’m in my late 60’s and I’ve tried to tell a couple of priests that rock died long ago!  Last summer I went to a conference on music where the priest, well-meaning, showed the video Hell’s Bells, a Protestant made video that critiqued bands like The Rolling Stones, KISS, Meatloaf, Foreigner, Journey, and some disco music! The young people were unfamiliar with almost all of them except they’d pretty much all heard of the Stones. Their parents in their 30’s and 40’s had never heard of them.  
Your point about rap and the worst elements of black culture are what kids aspire to, if they aspire to anything. They grow up on screens and when they are in the real world, they don’t differentiate between reality and on a screen. That explains to me the lack of purpose, no motivation, the lack of basic skills, lack of conscience, lack of empathy, no ability to judge, and apathy. It explains how at least 30 people sat or stood idly by as a crazy man set an innocent woman on fire as she sat quietly on the subway. Not one person did anything except pull out their iPhone and post it to TikTok or whatever. The woman died. When the police caught the pyromaniac, he admitted it and said it was just something to do. He had no remorse, nothing. Justice was not done because the police should have tracked all those people down who just filmed the murder. 
Welcome to the Faith! Know that someone, somewhere, sometime prayed for you!  Don’t worry about seeing few your age at Mass. You already know the reasons for it. Have you considered you may have a vocation to the priesthood? If not, there are lots of young people for whom nobody prays. I’d strongly urge you to find a priest for your spiritual director, or to at least one to whom you can go for direction.
