Obviously it is very general. Not all millennials are like this but a significant portion are. In my generation almost everyone proved to be effective and honest members of society.
Do you know how much world wide destruction and death your generation brought to the world? Entire cities laid waste, millions upon millions dead. Effective members of society? The world was lucky there was any society left.
And what would you have done differently in the face of the Nazis and Japanese imperialism? This outta be good.
That's not the point. The point is world war and a barbarity that boggles the mind was a product of that generation. It was hardly all roses as the OP attempts to depict it.
I wouldn't be surprised if the current generation was the least violent the world has ever seen.

So, what would you have done differently? Answer the question.

You're missing the point. Such aggression only required such a response because that was how that generation thought. They had an aggressive mentality. World war is what that generation had wrought. It's not how today's generation would of responded but that it would have never gotten that out of hand in the first place.

Wars are fought by young men, but the decisions are made by the old. You have go back one or two generations to Hitler, Stalin, Roosevelt, Hirohito, Molotov, Ribbentrop, Stimson, and others. Germany and Japan were fighting aggressive wars to acquire natural resources, such as coal, rubber, oil, etc. How many people died or were dislocated as a result of US wars against Iraq, Syria, and Libya so that oil and gas interests could be flipped from Russia and China to US and the EU? Over 20 million.
