The difference is, older generations were more willing to believe the lies of society, young people less so

I wouldn't be so sure that generational sentiments never will change, it's possible that this time it's different, and young people who are in shitty conditions would be much more willing to make change and outright speak against capitalism and current systems.

Why would it be different this time? Because of the internet, and greater acknowledgment, awareness, and lessened stigma of mental health issues and general life struggles.
