re: Why are Moronials such whiny losers that blame all of their failures on Boomers?

Boomers and the internet never get old

The blame game is what that generation excels in. Nothing is ever the fault of the individual, its always society.

They vote left because they are failures at being an individual.

At this point, it would take every generation alive to end the welfare state. Boomers being first among us.

Boomers are about to get Medicare and SS. They're not ending the welfare state

Same for me. I wonder if he thought of this term and was so impressed by his wit that he had to start a post simply to use it.

You weren't born when American was $30T in debt, and what's even funnier is you think Boomer's are why we're now $30T in debt. Do you not understand that our politics today and over the last 10-15 years have been decided by millennials + GenX more so than boomers?

---

Are you kidding me? GWB, Obama, and Trump are not millennials. How many millennials are in Congress?

shite I'm an OLD millennials (or xennial, depending on how much you want to split things up) and I just became eligible to run for POTUS a few years ago. 90%+ of millennials couldn't assume power roles if they wanted.

Boomers started entering power roles in the 90s at the latest. They've had 30-40 years in power (especially the last 20). How has our debt done the past 20 years?

And the irony is millenials don't realize they were born halfway between 3rd and home. Sure, boomers have had it much better/easier than their parents. And our parents had it better/easier than theirs. This trend didn't stop, you whiny economic illiterates.

Millennials are the first generation this likely won't be true. Economic opportunity is regressing, not progressing. Hell even our life expectancy is supposed to be less than the preceding generations, a first in centuries.

And the US will be a footnote in history and remembered as a failed state.

Boomers had it so good. Gas lines, interest rates in the twenties, and Nam just to name a few wonderful things they had to deal with.

EVEN WITH THESE, they still had a much easier path.

That's the thing you are refusing to realize.

At least there is one bright spot in your gloom and doom post.

Millennials are literally weak of body and mind. Darwin's Law in play here.

No.

It has a lot to do with the 2008 crash and the pandemic, along with the professional class working more hours than their counterparts from the past.

Millennials are workaholics

quote:

---

43% of work martyrs were Millennials, compared with just 29% of overall survey respondents. Millennials were also more likely to want to be seen as work martyrs than older workers; specifically, 48% of Millennials wanted their bosses to see them that way, while only 39% of Gen X did and 32% of Boomers did. 35% of Millennials thought it was good to be seen as a work martyr by colleagues, while only 26% and 20% of X’s and Boomers agreed, respectively.

Millennials are also more likely to forfeit unused vacation days than other groups — 24% of Millennials, 19% of Gen Xers, and 17% of Boomers forfeited time off that they’d earned. (This ought to be an especially bitter pill for Millennials to swallow given that, due to their juniority in the workforce, they earn less vacation time overall than older workers.)

---

quote:

---

This, in the context of the work martyrdom research, is some cause for concern. Consider a different set of findings, these drawn from a survey P:TO worked on with Alamo Rent-a-Car that measured “vacation shame.” (Both organizations share concerns that American workaholism could be cutting into the U.S. travel industry; P:TO began as an initiative of the U.S. Travel Association.) That survey found that Millennials were much more likely (59%) to feel ashamed for taking or planning a vacation than workers 35 or older (41%). Moreover, Millennials twice as likely to make fun of colleagues who took vacation – 42% of under-35 workers admitted to doing so. Of the group of employees who admitted to making fun of vacation-takers, Millennials were also twice as likely to admit that they weren’t kidding — roughly four in 10 of them said they were at least “somewhat serious” in their vacation-shaming, while only about two in 10 of older workers were serious about their mockery.

Given that Millennials today make up half the workforce — and that just over 1 in 4 Millennials are already in management positions — this should be alarming. We may be setting a new workplace norm, one where time off truly isn’t valued. Consider: in the P:TO survey, about half of Millennial managers said that company pressure kept them from approving employees’ requests for time off, compared with only a third of older managers.

Every generation has their obstacles. The difference is we didn't blame our parents for fricking us over.

To get right down to it every generation has been fricked over in some way by the previous generation and we, the American people, have let the Government grow into a corrupt behemoth. Instead of squabbling about who did what to whom. We need to band together and put a stop to the corruption that has taken over the Government at all levels. The only thing I fear is that it might be too late.
