Seriously. Fuck all this generational bullshit. Artificial divides cooked up by ad agencies. Such a waste of time and energy.

Once we all figure out that we outnumber them millions to one they will have a very bad day, but I do feel like if that ever happened a good number of us will stand on the side of tyranny.
All they have to do is offer a certain small percentage of the population a job in “enforcement” with barely any benefits or pay.
That new law enforcement will then protect the system that lets them look down on “the poors/immigrants/[insert boogie man]” and admire their ultra wealthy generous “saviors.”
Fan in some hate, add some racism, a bit of bigotry. Baby, you got a stew going.
How much do ICE thugs make again?

Nope, we must pit ourselves against each other while Musk and company point and laugh.

Gen X: Not pictured
Haha, sounds about right. We're the forgotten generation. But that's okay.
Xennial here. I'm glad to stay out of this manufactured generational conflict drama.
I've been called boomer and merrily laugh in the face of the kids that think they are just as clever that I thought I was in their age.
Gen X probably just hopes they're old or dead before it gets really bad

I think Gen Z is more right-wing than millennials; at least the younger men.
Gen Z is also more receptive of Socialism
Its how Mamdani won
It's almost like an entire generation isn't just one person. Maybe "generations" is just another made up thing used to divide people?
It's not a crazy idea to group people born around a certain year range together. There's a lot of shared experiences and often similar outlooks. The boundaries between these groups are a little stupid though.
It's also a useful tool to understand how global events affect people in different parts of life. Often quoted is a gen z divide that is missing in other generations. I think this was caused because of when covid hit during their lives. A difference of a couple years made a big difference where the younger half leaned hard right and the older half leaned left.

All the eroding of education worked on them, and most Gen z men are fucking idiots
Gen Z is more reactionary than millennials, and that's because we're more fucked. Fascism provides an outlet and gives direction and purpose to the general discontent and resentment harbored by young people today, same as it ever was. Gen Z appears more right wing because more Gen Z can see the status quo isn't working for them, and in the absence / suppression of the populist left people turn to the populist right.

As a millennial I might live in my parents basement and eat avocado toast but I'm still ready to throw some molotovs
I might be able to supply you with empty bottles.
Keeping your empty liquor bottles after drinking it all is free.

I love that Gen X is forgotten. Yet again.
The panel for GenX is exactly what I expected.

It has been said that for the outlying regions of the Roman Empire, the collapse only meant that when the unused bridge fell down, no one came to fix it. (Undoubtedly I have garbled it.)
It has also been said "We are a long way from Beijing", which means the central government is a long way away and don't know what we are doing and impact our lives little.
Some things will really suck. They will suck far more than I can imagine. We will still have local police and hospitals. Medical care will get worse. There may be less food in the non-agriculture states, but that will be fixed with trade or war.
Lots of people will die. Likely you and I will die.
Some states will link up to make their own countries. Canada may invite some states to join. Same with Mexico (New Mexico maybe...)
Very much a "things I do not control".

I've read somewhere that sugar burns like a bitch and stay stuck everywhere.
...Just a random fact.
In this one video game I play, they said that you don't want to stuff the cloth into the mouth of the bottle, but rather seal the bottle and tie the cloth around the neck so the fuel doesn't ignite midair.
I heard that if you mix styrofoam into gasoline it becomes very viscous and sticky. It adheres to everything.

This Gen Xer supports Gen Z.
Highlights the idiocy of dividing people up by generation, they just totally skipped Gen X, because there was no neat little stereotype they could come up with.
The stereotype is that everyone forgets about GenX
Sorry, Gen-Z will in all likelihood be as passive and innert to revolt or political actions as previous generations have been.
Plus there's so much more tech they're going to be subject to.
Billionaires paying a proper amount of taxes cannot appease me anymore. I want their heads separated from their bodies.
I’m okay for a new retirement system where I volunteer at a soup kitchen or food pantry.
