Oh, another original thread by someone who think Millennials are no older than 25.

he is probably 38 and thinks he is GenX when in fact he is an millennial.

They were told to listen to everything their teachers said so parents didnt have to parent. So they did.

Funny, the people who post the most political talking point/click bait shut in social media are boomers.

Free thinking = Whatever position Trump is taking on a given day

true millennials were taught by the 50-60 year old teachers who taught Gen X and their parents. I literally had multiple teachers that taught my boomer dad. the Left swinging teachers didnt come prevalent till very late 90s and mid 2000s. when true millennials were grown and in college.

This post is just as ironic as the OP. I’ve never seen people attacked as angrily and with such animosity as a democrat that dares to question progressive talking points.

When you listen to millennials, they almost all espouse the same talking points on whatever social or political topic comes up. It is truly uncanny. It’s like group think to the extreme. But why is that?


It's because most school environments are liberal hotbeds. If you spent the majority of your time there between the ages 13-22 then most of them will think like they are taught. It's not until they leave college get into the real world and have kids and savings do they change. Most liberals will become more conservative as they age.

They're freer thinkers than boomers are in my experience.
