I am Gen Z and I'm not fine with that. I chose to go to college far from where I grew up so that I would be independent and free and do stuff on my own accord, like buying a motorcycle.

The plural of anecdotes isn’t data. You not being fine with that doesn’t mean the majority aren’t.

They never said the majority wasn't.

Exactly! I appreciate hearing about a different point of view.

Are Gen Z pro organ donation?

[-] SuperSpruce@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I have an organ donor on my license. But I'm not trying to kill myself, I'm just following my heart.

It seems like fewer people in my generation have motorcycles because 1) we have less money (although you can save by replacing a car with one) than previous generations, and 2) the older generations constantly push the narrative that having a motorcycle is equivalent to having a death wish, which circles back to the point that they shouldn't be spying on us all the time.

Is that an argument against motorcycles?
