What were they before? And do we have to listen to these people? I was perfectly happy as a Gen-Xer. I identify as Gen-X, fight me.

2018-08-24 09:20:26 UTC  

well thats like.... youre opinion maaan

2018-08-24 09:21:58 UTC  

What the hell is this 'post-millennial'? that spans 20+ years. Thats just lazy. Is the world really going to be so different after the Millies that the next gen is named after them. I don't think so.

2018-08-24 09:23:12 UTC  

maybe they think millenials has a bad record so theyre passiing it to other people

2018-08-24 09:24:16 UTC  

they used to be 4 years later

2018-08-24 09:24:30 UTC  

so Millenials used to be people between 1985 and 1995

2018-08-24 09:25:44 UTC  

Is that right? I've been lied to. Sorry guys. I'm a Millie. Always have been.

2018-08-24 09:27:56 UTC  

Afaik, it was like

Boomers 1945 - 1965
Generation X 1965 - 1985
Millenials 1985 - 1995
Generation Z 1995 - 2005

2018-08-24 09:28:25 UTC  

Millenials get such a bad rep, ofc people don't want to be associated ;D

2018-08-24 09:28:54 UTC  

well most of us are kinda shitty,

Arrogant, entitled, and no world experience

2018-08-24 09:29:44 UTC  

^^^

2018-08-24 09:29:49 UTC  

'no world experience'?

2018-08-24 09:30:04 UTC  

they are younger than the others, how is that surprising

2018-08-24 09:30:30 UTC  

Because due to internet, we have more oversight of the world than ever

2018-08-24 09:32:13 UTC  

i might've phrased "no world experience" in a misleading term, lemme think of a better word

2018-08-24 09:32:37 UTC  

Maybe it is different where I live, but the state really makes sure you go through the school system as fast as possible to get people to work...

2018-08-24 09:32:51 UTC  

yeah i didn't mean it like that no, sorry

2018-08-24 09:32:53 UTC  

I meant it like uhm

2018-08-24 09:33:23 UTC  

We have so much knowledge of the world now,

history, news, events etc

And the current generation is more naive than ever

2018-08-24 09:34:42 UTC  

Like, the economy sucks, and they just sit on their butts going "I didn't cause this, the previous generation should fix it"
As opposed to realising that although yes its not their fault, they still have to deal with it.

"Other people aren't as wealthy, lets use a system thats been proven to never work time and time again in the last 80 years to solve it"

2018-08-24 09:35:22 UTC  

"i'm not a man or a woman, so i should get extra beneficial treatment now"

2018-08-24 09:35:25 UTC  

It's the victim mentality that they are being indoctrinated to live by.

2018-08-24 09:35:28 UTC  

yes

2018-08-24 09:36:04 UTC  

They don't realise that stuff in the world is just "given"

Thats what i meant with no world experience, they don't understand that nothing in the world comes free

2018-08-24 09:42:18 UTC  

Public school has been a failure.

2018-08-24 09:42:34 UTC  

I really think it is country based then. I really can't confirrm what you said with my experience, young people are kinda liberal here but communism is not that popular. Maybe it's because my peers are all middle class or something.

2018-08-24 09:43:14 UTC  

In germany there are almost exclusively public schools and it seems to be working...

2018-08-24 09:54:19 UTC  

... Is it?

2018-08-24 09:56:58 UTC  

Well it's not really working in the USA.

2018-08-24 09:57:25 UTC  

What does dseem to be the problem, I really don't know the specifics for the USA

2018-08-24 09:57:47 UTC  

The system is so confusing :D

2018-08-24 10:16:24 UTC  

the US system is bad

2018-08-24 10:16:41 UTC  

and the EU system will be soon too

2018-08-24 10:17:58 UTC  

I know the Americans’ healthcare system is bizarrely rigged, they get far less bang out of their buck. Their private insurance gouges them, which would maybe makes sense if it was not paid by the government, though it is still paid by the government at a shockingly large amount: http://www.crfb.org/papers/american-health-care-health-spending-and-federal-budget

2018-08-24 10:18:26 UTC  

Im a generation x i made the cut off by one year

2018-08-24 10:18:54 UTC

2018-08-24 10:19:06 UTC

2018-08-24 10:19:09 UTC

2018-08-24 10:19:16 UTC
