We could have done it too if we'd had the internet. We had to wait for Al Gore to invent it. All we had were libraries filled with books.

I don't think it's nonsense at all, the leftists in the Millenial generation are going full Mussolini on dehumanizing the other side and deplatforming all ideas that hurt their precious feelings. retarded

It led me to more interesting articles about Millenials, one of which was on Buzzfeed (which they would never publish now, and you can see that with half the images censored and removed since original publication in July 2016):

19 Reasons Why Millennials Are Totally Destroying This Country
  1. They have bad hobbies.
  2. They're terrible at saving.
  3. They don't care about the important things.
  4. They hate having fun.
  5. They never make good investments.
  6. They've got it too easy.
  7. They never get off their dang phones.
  8. I mean, COME ON. LOOK UP, MILLENNIALS.
  9. They can't take a joke.
  10. They don't work hard enough.
  11. They're always getting offended over everything.
  12. I mean, EVERYTHING!!!
  13. They've got terrible ideas.
  14. Their heads are always in the clouds.
  15. Did I mention they're always on their darn phones?
  16. They're useless.
  17. They can't do anything right.
  18. They take too many selfies.
  19. And they're not miserable enough.


I will note that the first user comment below is "says the generation that raised them",
and that person is not wrong. 100% the worst parenting generation on top of it that
gave us this disease. TOTAL dereliction of duty

IM confused, did you actually read the Buzzfeed article LOL, because its 100% satirical in the context of boomers claiming Gen Y is the worst and basically showing you why Boomers are in fact the worst.

Also note Babylon Bee articles that were ridiculous ended up coming to fruition in 2020
There is no "partly", the entire thing is satire, most of the comments you speak of are satire.

You didnt get when you posted the article that it was a joke( the hyperlinks should have tipped you off), so now you are switching your argument to ,

"well, the one liners are true even if they didnt mean it "

That was the far left Silent Generation Ed School gurus.
