Point of personal privilege. Using terms like triggering and PTSD conjures up images of violence and war which really stresses out some people and can give them panic attacks

Evidently he is wrong. His words were violent to most of those commenting below the article. Wow.

Jesus Christ. 
Part of me thinks a new revolution or large scale war would be good and give us the reset we clearly need. And it would sure as hell beat sitting in traffic on the way home from work every day. Or so I think anyway.
My luck I would die in the opening wave.

I just think the author's premise that we shouldn't complain or want better for ourselves because we haven't had to fight a war against an invader on our streets is laughable.
"Wanting better" and saying "words are violence" are not equivalents.

This is similar to something my old man touched on awhile back. He said the college kids didn’t grow up seeing what the likes of the Soviet Union, Castro, Pol Pot, Mao, Ceausesau, etc. and what they did to their people in the name of communism.

Poles got the worst end of the stick.
But goddamned never has a more spirited people existed. They come at you like a every bone broken Captain America time and time again.

American millennials have a lot of complaints about their lot in life. So here’s a question for them: When is the last time you had to walk through a sewer waist-high in human filth, choking on the toxic ammonia, yet unable to cough for fear of alerting the Nazi SS soldiers on the street above — knowing that if you did, they would open a manhole cover and toss in grenades or poison gas to kill you?
When’s the last time a boomer did?

When's the last time a Boomer or Gen Xer had to do this?
No American has had to do that since we earned our independence. You could make an argument for Sherman’s March victims I guess

It’s mostly Gen Z. Gen X and millennial bosses give in but most people are younger than 25

As long as people aren't dying in literally the biggest cataclysmic event in world history they have no right to want to live in a better world. Got it.

acting like progs just "want better" is just as laughable. Probably more tbh

Baby boomers went into the military at far higher rates. The draft was in effect until 1973. If you went to college, especially at LSU, you were in ROTC. Not everyone went to Vietnam, many avoided through various means, but this statement above is ignorant.
Approximately 18% of boomers served, compared with 3% of millennials.

Ok but last time I checked boomers didn’t fight the nazis, which is what I asked

dude you know these people bitching about everything aren't simply wanting a better world. They complain about the most asinine things you could possibly think of
