All I see from Gen Z and Millenials IS Selfish entitlement. They are the worst generation, and I say that as a 'Millenial'.

They bitch and complain about Boomers wrecking the economy for them, yet most of them are lazy entitled assholes looking to be social-welfare kings/queens, doing the fuck all most minimum work to stay alive while the complain about their life being hard on Twitter.

No, sir. The Gen Z and Millenials fucked themselves more than some other group fucked them.


Maybe if they stopped wasting all their fucking money on having six $12 lattes everyday, and buying every new tech thing, and all the fucking name-brand bullshit overpriced crap that they do, they might have more money to not live in the shit they put themselves into.




Most millenials, and almost all GenZ are entitled fucknuggets with zero ability to further themselves. The rare upstanding example aside. They'd rather cheer and support actual felons, then do what it takes to change the world in a positive way.


Regardless of how you view it, laziness or less opportunity to generate wealth we reach the same conclusion. They dont have the same estate wealth accumulated that Gen X and Boomers do, they're not going to give two shits about Republicans tax plans to protect wealth.

If Christmas music is playing before Thanksgiving, expect persecution and retribution.

There's lazies in every generation.

We should whip them. And I mean that literally. If they are to lazy to contribute to society in a meaningfully positive way, put them in the field, and whip them into shape.

Is it not the American dream to have it all? You can't even have a one-bedroom apartment in major metro cities that on average costs less than $1,500 a month. It's not a surprise they're crying for change.

You might call it being lazy, but statistically the wage market has not kept pace with the cost of goods / shelter.

Yes frivouls spending is up but lets look at the real costs for a second. Rent all of a sudden costing $1,500, health insurance $250, you better have a cell phone plan because you're working all the time now. Tenants insurance, car insurance or a metro pass, the baseline spending per month for some average 2X year old in a city is absurd now.

My man was just fleeing a riot and clearing out the illegal people on the streets. Republicans have endorsed this. I don’t know what the big deal is.

Okay so what's your suggestion? Everyone move to rural areas and then all those places that used to offer a premium for your time no longer have to because they have a big influx of people and you run into the exact supply and demand issue.

Do what you can afford.

People want to live in the shiniest and newest thing - and they pay for it and complain about being poor. That's their fault, and their problem. Basic economics happen.

People can't afford basic minimum needs, if all those people moved to rural more affordable areas it would just result in an influx and property owners there would charge higher rates.

The frivolous spending is not the core issue as you're trying to make it out to be. Its not comparable to the costs of living, insurance, transportation and education. All of which are now needed since jobs that previously only needed experience are now barred off by education requirements. This naturally makes sense as general labour is phased out and replaced by AI and machines, people naturally now need a higher level of education to meet basic minimum requirements.

Keeping up with the Jones results in issuers here or there but I dont think its near as pervasive or as materially detrimental as you think it is for Millennials. If anything its more detrimental to Gen X probably making large scale purchase on credit.
