Doom is popular right now. People want to feel terrible and pessimistic and their media diets only reinforce this.

To be fair, the labour market for a recent humanities graduate is quite crap right now, too.
In particular, CS students are feeling it more than most majors. (Especially compared with the shock that most of them probably thought CS was the field for job security.)
Saw an article recently that said CS majors were up there with performing arts majors and art history majors in terms of unemployment rate.
This is true. Computer Systems Engineering is pretty high.
It's going to be bad indefinitely until we don't really have "jobs" any more in any sort of meaningful sense.
To be fair the last 60 years have seen wealth distribution consolidate at the top of this country at rates never seen in human history.
