Millennials be like: Let's feed into generational hate we learned from the boomers.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Wasnt the millennial hate the first post?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

Some zoomers are also guilty of generational hate.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

Yeah when zoomers first showed up to adulthood I remember being surprised when they started ripping on Millennials first (making fun of our love of gifs, single panel memes, Harry Potter, etc.). It was a "what he say fuck me for?" moment and it's been going on ever since.

GenZ here like, those things sound great but they also cost money.

[–] [email protected] 81 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Beware of accounts promoting division between millennials & Gen Z. They’re trying to prevent a powerful political alliance.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago

Thank you for calling that out. I've saw them do that on Reddit right after the election.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 22 hours ago

Dang, am I a Gen Z now?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 22 hours ago

Other millennials go out??

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

Not drinking is actually a very good life decision.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Key point here: Millennials still make an effort to hang out, outside of the internet. Hoo boy that birth rate is really going to plummet. Lets see how well the capitalist's infinite growth system works when the next 3 generations are smaller then each other. How does retirement work for the proles?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If you think capitalism is bad wait until you see what's coming next: neofeudalism

Extremely wealthy few who control everything. No more payment, you'll simply be a serf. No more owning, you won't own anything, all in your life will be leased.

In that world, you have kids because your told to, or else. Individual freedom? What are you a lord? A feudal master?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

I doubt anyone will have to be told to have kids. Putting people in misery will leave them grasping at anything to have a moment's respite of pleasure. Right now they can do that with hobbies and 'toys.' In the future? Only the embrace of your fellow miserable hopefully-only-half-kin will be an option, and kids will start popping out.

I don't want a fucken culture war between the generations like what happened with baby boomers. Gen X forward are all fine by me, live your life, be conscientious of other people and where they're at in life, and for shits sakes lets be open to changing our societies based on different generational challenges. The generational wars were always stoked by cynical conservative bread and circuses propaganda, fuck em, stop paying them attention.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And this is why my millennial D&D group invites zoomers to join us, no better way to bridge that gap!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (3 children)

In my experience Millenials are super inviting to Zoomers, but not the other way around. But that could just be because they are literally slightly more mature than Gen Z.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

I dunno if it's maturity or just...

Look I interact with a lotta kids, and they are not alright. If you told me a large number of zoomers literally did not know how to invite their friends to real life activities, I would believe you. I've spoken with a lot of Zoomers who are so socially awkward they don't seem to understand a spoken conversation. I feel like we have an obligation to invite them to stuff, just to show them that there is a world off the net that's worth living in.

The shitheads writing the culture war articles and voting for Trump and his kind in greater numbers than the boomers are Gen X.

Y'know what? There are people in every generation causing clichés and also enough people ranting about others clichés. As long as it's in good humour, that's fine.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Suddenly realizes no one under 30 goes to the bars he goes to

Holy shit. I never thought about it, really.

I don't go anywhere exclusive or special, really. They're just not fucking there. 😯

Meanwhile me, who is lonely to tears, yet drinks alone and consumes brainrot content at the same time while crying:

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Hey, hope you'll learn to deal with self destructing habits, every steps in the right direction matters !

And dont be too harsh on yourself, perfect is ennemy of good as we say in France, especially if its derail you from wanting to get better :)

When the fuck did my 40 year old ass become a zoomer?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Easy fix: drink.

[–] JackbyDev 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I was thinking the same thing lol.

Me and a couple buddies got motorcycles over the past year. We're literally going to go for a ride tomorrow, then meet at the local axe throwing range. I've been looking forward to it all week!

Skip the alcohol and go to a modern laser tag arena with friends. Insanely fun. They somehow got the Halo 2/3 announcer over a massive intercom system, and they have similar games. Feels like a match from when we were kids!
