Yes. Additionally, there is no proof millennials will ever become a majority. Baby boomers and Gen Xers are joiners but millennials are not. The generation behind you (Gen Z or iGen) is showing a lot of promise of not falling for all of the BS your generation is mocked for.

I was born within that bracket of the Millennial generation. I fit some of the stereotypes. Others. Most certainly do not. Blanket, absolute “all those stupud millennials” statements are as general as any other stereotyping. “All whites” “all cops” “all men” “all boomers” etc.

But Im indifferent, as an individual, to the generalizations - if its an avocado toast meme, i fuckin hate avocado. Doesnt apply to me. Millennial college kids are stupid? Yep. I see them all the time, but whats the reason theyre stupid? I see the vegan, skinny-jeans-wearing anti-capitalist, socialist, starvucks-drinking, macbook-toting soyboys and feminazis, too, and that critera dont apply to me, and I see them for what they are - therefore, i am unfazed. As for the “millennials are killing the XX industry” articles, yeah. Im definitely guilty of not spending my money on certain things, i suppose, contributing to the death of Applebees and hurting the diamond industry. But i work hard for my money, to better my life, to provide for my family, and to improve our future. I do me.

I see the truth behind the general loathing of millennials, despite “being one.” Like Para said - if the shoe fits. I know it sometimes fits me, but definitely and deliberately not with most of the stereotype.

AOC is a Marxist. There isn't a better word to describe her ideology.

You may want to stop using that term as the #1 definition on Urban Dictionary is:

individual male that upon first glance is not definable as either gay or straight.

Not all hippies were, at least with my group of friends. We became machinists, engineers, managers, business owners.

In fact I voted for Nixon in 1972 and Republican in each Presidential election since except for 1988. I missed that one, I was busy that night after my "real" job as a auto dealership parts manager playing EMT/Firefighter to well into the morning after the election.

That generation was raised by the baby boomers.

That's funny, my parents are boomers. You think that describes me?

Sweeping generalizations clearly work great.

All millennials aren't the problem. But, if you find someone today who is emotionally crippled, entitled, smug, self centered and generally worthless in the workplace, you've probably found a millennial.

The everyone-gets-a-trophy helicopter parented people, those are typically millennials. The "pajama boy" types, millennials. Anyone who uses "woke" and means it... and more.

Most of the insufferable people in their mid twenties I come across, are representing their generation badly. Those in their 30's seem to have outgrown it, if they were ever exposed.

When most people think of "millennial," they're thinking of a hipsteresque far left gender neutral wastoid with a man bun, and skinny jeans.

If someone is reading this website, and owns firearms, they probably don't fit the stereotype of a millennial, if they are in that age range. The care and feeding of firearms is anathema to the SJW types.

Gen X were worthless deadbeat slackers right? None of these things apply to everybody. There were plenty of worthless assholes in "the greatest generation," we just never hear of them. For every exceptional person of any generation, there are countless more asses to fill the rest of the seats.
