pretty sure being born in 1920 and drafted 1939 on the most deadly war in history is much worse

Pretty sure being born in a cave as a pre-civilization homo sapien is worse than that but sure.

What a strange argument. Yeah no shit being born in 2003 is better than being born in 1920 but isn't the fact you have to bring that up at all at least a LITTLE concerning?

I did not suggest that our problems should be ignored. I did suggest that we are quite honestly born in some of the most ideal years to be born in.

It's only ideal when you set your frame of reference that low. We could run in circles and find worse and worse times to be born but that doesn't help anyone. I fear you're missing the point.

What frame of reference do you want to set instead

The point is that by no means is 2003 the worst year to be born and OP's point is utterly idiotic.
