  • Wow that was fun. And not at all like some butthurt old guy whining on the internet.

  • So...many...ads

  • "Your feelings are largely irrelevant"

    Sure. But that doesn't just apply to millennials - it also applies to people who 'feel' like gay marriage, for example, is perverse.

    "You cannot be whatever you want to be"

    Absolutely. And, "This is a comforting lie parents have started telling their children to boost their morale in school." So we're moving immediately on to recognising that the generation above is to blame. Got it.

    "Gender studies is a waste of money"

    Absolutely. But that course (and plenty others like it) only exists to make money out of students. If the generations above actually gave a crap about young people rather than seeing them as cash cows they wouldn't offer those courses. Just a thought.

    "If you live in america, you're already in the 1%"

    Apparently the author hasn't heard of a thing called relative poverty. It doesn't matter if you make a hundred times as much as little Mbokembe in Uganda, if everything costs a hundred times as much to buy as well.

    "You don't have a right to it just because you exist"

    A right to what? Everybody clearly has a right to some things - freedom of speech, protection by police etc - and then decides to draw a line at health care and basically says people are being selfish for demanding it. The logic in this point is so ridiculous it would need a separate post to deal with it all. Still, I'm pretty sure if the police force didn't exist today, and someone suggested it, you'd get people like this asking who's going to pay for it, and that personal security should be the privilege of those who can afford it.

    "You DO have the right to live as you please - but not to demand people accept it"

    OK. I can get on board with this. Except, it goes basically against the first point. If Ed and Trump want to get married, and OBF objects, OBF's feelings are irrelevant. Except freedom of speech means he can apparently talk as much shit to them as he wants? Well, no, that's not how it works. Harassment, threats etc do not fall under the first amendment.

    "The only safe space is your home"

    And we have one that I can get on board with. Yes, people are going to say offensive things. You need to be able to deal with it, or you're really going to struggle in life.

    Absolutely. Refuting points definitely shows sings of nerve-striking.

    Pretty much. As soon as I see that a website has a set up where you have to scroll through pages, I just close it out.

    LOL

    No shit right? Anyway there is a system to reading these fuckers on Facebook. You have to determine which button is the next button and not the button that takes you to the stupid fucking ad.

    Too bad the Browns board doesn't have a safe Zone.

    😁

    (but kids have whined ever since I was one)

  • By the way Chris old pal, exactly which ones did you refuse?

    Seems to me every one was basically true and the only disconnect was that it has applied to every generation going back decades upon decades and not just the millennials.

    Western world poor is pretty damn plush. Hell, I see the allure of having zero stress or responsibility. I would have all sorts of hobbies.

  • All of this fits in the "that's just the way it is" category.

    The softness of maybe hurting someone's feelings is bullshit. No wonder China and Russia think we're turds. It didn't use to be this way though. We used to able to tell someone how in the fuck it is without getting clambered on by a bunch of fags.

    My family still adheres to the old ways of everyone bagging on each other and not letting any slight go unpunished haha.

    You see two guys kissing in public and oh God don't say anything.

    You see some woman with six kids at a gas station buying soda pop and candy with a link card..oh God don't say anything.

    You see some guy at the Doc office with his luxury car parked outside in a handicapped space with the right plates and he's paying with his medical card...of God don't say anything.

    Hobbies you couldn't afford for the most part

    The neighbors I had as a poor student would say otherwise.

    I guess it depends on the hobby and what you want to do with it

    I am just living in a state with a large % of the state on welfare or disability generationally so I get sick of seeing that shit.

    And I'm sure it's exclusively millennials.

    Either way, having a welfare system that pays more than minimum wage (or otherwise enables a better quality of life) is just not the right way to do it.
