Nah, 80s and 90s were paradise too.

Let’s just go back to those decades and never leave.

The systems that destroyed our society were created by boomers and Regan. They just took time to work.

GenX was also relatively small compared to the boomers.

I wonder if every generation will blame (maybe correctly) previous generations. So long as things are getting worse, the kids kind of have a valid argument. “Why didn’t you fix this before it got to us?”

As a millennial, I’ve been doing what I can short of going full vigilante. But in 30 years, they still wouldn’t be wrong to say “it’s still broke though isn’t it?”

I am of the opinion we should implement left-wing authoritarian regime worldwide.

Millennial here too… I blame myself for everything, including climate change. Everything I (can) buy is wrapped in plastic. Everything I (can) consume produces CO2. Every step I take, every breath I make… I’m killing earth.

I have a lot of self hate and can understand anyone who hates my generation. At least it ends with me. Who ever thinks kids are a good Idea must be completely insane.

Gen Z already has some belief that Millennials did nothing but complain. No/not enough progress was made for all the protesting millennials cried for. It looks like Z is going the X apathetic route.

Which system do you think destroys our society?

The system in question is capitalism. It’s been around longer than any of the named generations. It was tamed a little before the first world war (it enabled the first world war to be a world war). It needs to be more restricted
