What’s Causing ‘Bad Vibes’ in the Economy?

Look at recent economic data, and you would think that young voters would be riding high. Unemployment remains low. Job opportunities are plentiful. Inequality is down, wage growth is finally beating inflation and the economy has expanded rapidly this year.

But look at TikTok, and you get a very different impression — one that seems more in line with both consumer confidence data and President Biden’s performance in political polls.

Several of the economy-related trends getting traction on TikTok are downright dire. The term “silent depression” recently spawned a spate of viral videos. Clips critical of capitalism are common. On Instagram, jokes about a lack of affordable housing are a genre unto themselves.

Social media reflects — and is potentially fueling — a deep-seated angst about the economy that is showing up in surveys of younger consumers and political polls alike. It suggests that even as the job market booms, people are focusing on long-running issues like housing affordability as they assess the economy.
