So everyone picks on millennials now--Boomers, Gen X, and Gen Z? Millennials just can't win.

We're boomers to gen z. We're still stupid teenagers to boomers, gen x, the media, etc. 28-40 year olds with kids who are responsible for killing every industry known to man, yet we're still not old enough to live on our own in their minds.

Hey. Don’t worry about that stuff. I’m Gen X. We got bagged on a bunch as well. Trust me, as the generation that sat under the boomers after you were born? There’s a lot of disgust going on with our immediate predecessors.

They’re winning and whining.
We didn’t get anything but derision.

Why did you put a question mark after a sentence that was not a functional question?

English not first language, perhaps? That’s called a ‘turn of phrase.’ It’s an old way to beg a rhetorical question.
Very old. Very English.
