It can make sense when you deep dive into how much debt the average millennial is currently sitting on + costs oh healthcare and other necessary goods that have not come down.

---

Don't you think debt is related to spending?

quote:

Its easy to blame the Left because in reality a lot if not all of their policies have generated these issues as well as magnified them there's no debate here.

---

While this is true, and while it's also true that young people vote Lefties into office, what I was referring to in my last post was the narrative you find on social media, probably finding its genesis on campuses, that millennials are economic victims of boomers. That's politically driven from the Left.

quote:

---

l;dr Repubs can do the right thing here by simply not being the left, yet they choose too ignore the problem. Doing nothing after observing that something is indeed off, is in my opinion, just as wrong.

---

What is off? Be specific.

could FIRE right now if I wanted too on my dividend portfolio alone

More interested in making sure the kids behind me have something to live for because im pretty much at the cut off point from where this party really starts.

You're the 97th millennial (of 98) participating in these boomers stole our prosperity bitch threads to self-report being well off. A rational person would start to wonder how that can possibly be if what's whined about is true. Could it be that millennials are just as fortunate as Xers and boomers and silencers to have been born an American, and that life is actually pretty f'n good all things considered?

Life in America has never been better and easier than it is today, and 50 years ago it was better and easier than 50 years prior. American prosperity persistently works that way, and did not magically skip your generation. To believe otherwise ignores reality and accepts a shitty narrative created/advanced by the Left.

Isn't this an Obama-era thing made up of bureaucrats with a remit to watch out for the damage bureaucrats wreak on the financial system?

quote:

---

Millennials and Xers are still working and are more adaptable.

---

You're just making shite up.

Yeah, most millennials and Xers are still working, but remember your whine about them not making much in real terms? And they have kids at home, which boomers don't. And they have substantially less wealth compared to boomers. And they have substantially less equity in their homes than boomers do.

quote:

---

Im a homeowner and I think my neighbors having MORE OPTIONS and lower prices to buy houses is a good thing, even if it hurts my own home equity

---

This is retarded but hey, why don't you just do it? You don't need home prices to collapse to show everyone how super duper virtuous you are. Just sell your home for $100K under market to a struggling millennial couple. You'll be a hero.

quote:

---

I wonder which age group of people this would affect the most..

---

Homeowners, of which there are more millennials and gen-X'ers than boomers.

quote:

---

TARP

QE1-4

Covid lockdowns(and bailouts)

---

Why are those boomer things? And why stop with them? There are loads of other fedgov programmed largesse, is all fed spending on boomers? :lol:

quote:

---

Oh, he's talking about white privilege? Well why didn't he say that instead?

---

Would you like it in small words, too? It's not hard to understand what he was saying.

quote:

---

Yeah, sure we have white privilege, whether you know or acknowledge it or not.

---

We have American privilege, too. And black privilege. Asian privilege. Good looks privilege. Tall privilege. Smart privilege.

We're Americans. Privilege is everywhere.

quote:

---

You ever been pulled over for driving while white?

---

Yes.

quote:

---

Link? Would love to read about this.

---

You are retarded.

quote:

---

ETA: ah the classic downvote in lieu of a response when obvious bullshite is questioned

---

I didn't DV you. I called you retarded for not knowing fedgov subsidized housing for loads of illegals.

quote:

---

There’s more and more of the left’s narratives that are gaining traction.

---

You're right.

quote:

---

It's more I understand the patterns of the conspiratorial mind and the shitty rhetoric that's has developed since 2016. They have been given a few talking points they don't fully understand and can't adequately defend, so when they are backed into a corner they jump to other talking points there been told to use.

---

You can ask a few of the participants in this thread - I argued the silliness of the "tabulators in Maricopa county" argument for months on here, as well as the embarrassing "case" that Kari Lake's lawyers put on in her election fraud hearing. I know the difference between BS designed for social media (clicks and contributions) and the system we have that was quite literally put together to foster fraud.

And recognize that you're not different in arguments than "they" are. When challenged you often resort to "that's a different topic" rather than addressing the overriding point - our elections are compromised.

quote:

---

That's why if they can't pivot, the next move is to attack the facts as fraudulent.

It's the same thing over and over

---

Yep. And you do it, too.

Answer this simple question - do you think there is meaningful registration/voter fraud in the US at the federal elections level?

quote:

---

What is driving the angst towards this generation? Why do some of you feel they have profited at your expense?

---

It's one of the few Lefty narratives that has found traction with young conservatives. Unfortunately.
