while i appreciate your candid response lol at talking about "values" unironically

Yeah that was a really dumb and lovely term to use and I was reluctant to type it. However, I'm drunk so gently caress it. What I meant by ARE VALUUSE is basic human values. Not the propaganda machine that's been at work for the past few decades, or at least since I was a child (80's), that has completely progressed at a terrible rate. When I was young, at least they had the common decency to attempt to hide the terrible poo poo our country did. Now it's acceptable to kill, torture, etc., as long as it's for ARE COUNTRY!

:agreed:

my original point was more that some people get mad about selfies and "narrsissism" to a point well beyond the justifications they give for complaining about it so i wonder if there isnt some weird insecurity thing going on behind that mindset

ghlbtsk posted:

This is how I know I'm old and/or not a narcissist: it would never ever occur to me to take a picture of myself.
That would be like saying something only you think is witty, laughing at what you just said and then high-fiving yourself.

Now do that every 30 seconds.

lmao, every single geezer in history that complained about the worthlessness of youth turned out to be wrong, but hey, this time they are going to be right about the millenials, you'll see.

nah, I don't get people under 18 either but i grew up in the late 90s generation of goths, emos and "violent media addiction" and no adult understood that poo poo at that time either. it's just how it works.

Baby Boomers: Literal babies who had everything in their lives catered to them and are still loving it up as they reach their unaffordable retirements and will have to be bailed out since they never imagined anything difficult could ever happen to them, but are very angry and judgmental of Millenials because they aren't admiring the struggles and sacrifices Boomers endured.

Please disregard my advice w/r/t history.
I took my sister and her friend to a free concert last week, every time the band played a song they particularly liked, they'd squeal to each other then promptly snapchat snippets of video to their friends.

It was annoying and shallow, I believe every generation following the greatest have been self absorbed, now smart phones are enabling us to gaze at our navels in exciting new ways.

If you can get used to the loving insufferable writing, I think this guy has us all beat for identifying what's wrong with millennials.

This guy's blog owns and it makes me pretty sad that I have to return to the USA later this year. I couldn't put my finger on all the "salvaging" or rural-urban bullshit going on but this guy pointed out to me how much it sucks and how obnoxious these people are.
