Such a weird take. As if millennials and Gen Z/X would have behaved any different if we were born in grandma’s generation.

And they talk like no one protested in the 1960s about this same stuff during their generation

I mean someone back then was making these anti establishment songs popular:

There was definitely an audience.

You’d think with this attitude they think this kind of idea only just started with the current generation. Current gen are sure in for a surprise in the future when the next generation accuse them of compliance. Their time will come. And they allowed Trump. So they will have a ton to answer for cuz they were supposed to know better what with their blaming the previous generation for the exact things he made worse.

Nope. It was white millennial women who voted him in. And it doesn’t matter cuz trump was president while you were alive. That is the exact logic you’re applying to everyone else, trumpster racist hypocrite.

And no one says you’re like the boomers. You’re way behind them on the protests, you ineffective pimple git.

Obviously a whole generation didn’t become sellouts. As usual it’s easier to target a group with bigotry when faced with problems out of our direct control. I find this ageism/generational-ism as tiresome as any other flavour of intolerance, and it’s entirely unproductive.

I wonder what things Gen Y through Alpha are doing which will negatively affect Gen Beta through Delta…

Personally I’m setting traps in daycare centres.

This is absolutely true. But goes to show it isn’t the individuals, the judgement based on actions taken.
