All because male Millennials allegedly have never had to call a girl’s parents for permission to ask them out because of the internet.

(Pretty sure he’s confusion Millennials with Gen Z or whatever the next one is called. I know plenty of Millennials whose teen years involved exactly the scenario referenced above. Also sexist.)

Weird. Where I’m from it’s clear every non-boomer generation should save society from boomers. They’re the locust generation, wanting everything for themselves and ignoring everything beyond their own narrow scope. Like the future past their expected lifetime, or if the generation of their children (gen X+millenials) can put food on their own tables. The boomers are, at least here, by far the richest generation ever, they’ll statistically have it better their children (which is a first, save wars), yet they’re also the generation that complains the most.

As a “Gen Xer”, this is exactly what I was thinking while reading this.

Your headline is much more accurate than the article’s.

Exactly. I use other peoples songs to describe them:

“You’ve got a generation raised on the welfare state
Enjoyed all its benefits and did just great
But as soon as they were settled as the richest of the rich
They kicked away the ladder, told the rest of us that life’s a bitch”

- Frank Turner “Thatcher Fucked the Kids,”

What a bunch of tired, clichéd drivel.

As others have correctly pointed out, the boomers have amassed all the wealth, used the social safety net to their enormous advantage, and have spent the last 30 years taking their advantages away from everyone else.

And yet they complain incessantly, such as with the asinine screed linked above, that these damn kids and their electronical widgets, kindness toward others, and desire to see that everyone has the same chance at success are going to ruin the country.

Right...

Fuck off and die Gramps. I’d like to be able to breathe without needing a Sci-Fi backpack when walking outside when I’m your age.

In a world that makes it easy to throw anonymous digital stones, the meaning of personal responsibility becomes diluted.
