What millennials pick on zoomers, where?
Why is it on the kids to fix the shitty situation other generations have created?
Hey Google what's the definition of nihilism?
I'm making fun of you if that wasn't clear. No, the next generation are not weak, incapable or any other sort of negative generalization that you might think they are. They are people as diverse any other generation and the whole point of this post is to espouse that generational stereotypes only serve to hurt us and divide us from accomplishing better things for humanity.
You must be a real treat to be around. I've never met anyone in Gen Z who exhibits any of that behaviour. Maybe you're just exaggerating a bit based on very few people, in the off chance that you might have some evidence to support this please share it
I so happen to be of that generation and we're exposed to many of my generation through school and university. I assure you the type you mention who need a screen to sleep and worship celebrities represent a very small proportion. If you think everyone from Gen Z is like that I would accuse you of never leaving Instagram or YouTube
They don't know how to use the shift key to make capital letters. They are lost.
Jesus Christ, and when boomers say the same about you, you have the nerve to act like a victim
I'm not a fan of the tiktok Insta influencer culture and communicating in 90% emojis but other than that it's all good.
Me, here.
Picking on younger generations is healthy and natural: They're still figuring stuff out and it's a good way to give some teachings while everyone has a chuckle. What's not healthy and natural is leaving them with neuroses where silent expectations, judgements, unwillingness to see their side etc. are the usual weapons: Don't carry a dagger behind your back, doubly so don't be unconscious of it, instead, open-carry a super soaker.
Said the dumbass craven bully who needs to pick on people weaker than themselves to feel better
So you wouldn't pick a snowball fight with a whole primary school because you're oh so moral, not because you're scared. Makes sense.
Unlike you I do not, in fact, fear five-year-olds. And it's not because of fear or principle. It is because I am not a craven, sadistic lunatic who feels the need to harm children to prove a point.
I shall look forward towards your experience report picking that snowball fight with a whole primary school, then. Also primary school is like 6-10, at least over here. They can throw.
