  • First paragraph: yeah!
    Second paragraph negates the first. You want change? Go for it. Yelling at old people ain’t gonna get you any changes. You gotta do it yourself. I remember in college, a long time ago, people in my age group lobbing the exact same complaints how grandma and grandpa didn’t make the world better for them. They complained, yet didn’t put much effort to changing anything, particularly in voter turnout. But if you look at the creeping tide of history, you’ll find things ever so slowly getting better in a bunch of different ways. The newer generations are never handed a utopia, but are certainly welcome to work at creating one.



  • I’ve always thought the boomer/millennial whining was people of the exact same personality being insufferable to each other, just throwing down inane stereotypes while being emotionally immature and unable to be decent people.

    Every age group has people like that, of course. I just get tired of having to watch it play out constantly online. So just shut the fuck up and do some good in the world. Instead of griping about people, show us something inspirational that you’ve done. Be the example of what you want other people to be.


















  • If you guys really think that the United States is genuinely comparable to Nazi Germany, then why the fuck are you doing nothing about it? Pretending that you can just migrate to another country, find work, live your life isn’t doing something. There are massive logistic hurdles to do that. Spending time on some social media app wistfully complaining doesn’t do much either. Is everyone’s anger here performative or real? Have you guys done anything other than gripe to forestall whatever is coming?
