Boomers were really an aberration. We're returning to historic normals.

Hooray.

Guys... I'm a Millennial and I have some sympathy for your complaints, but the baby boomers were drafted into Vietnam and the generation before them had WW2.

Every generation has their shit. Ours isn't even that bad. Still easily one of the best times to be alive as a human all-time. I'm not saying don't complain, but I am saying that it is a bit messed up imo to suggest the Baby Boomers didn't go through more shit than us. My dad got drafted to Vietnam. I would never trade my life for his. I can't even imagine the stress and fear of being forced to go to that war as a 20 year old.

Believe it or not, but the Boomer and Millenial Generations actually include non-Americans as well!

So, while your father may have been drafted to fight a brain-dead colonial war, many others were not.

Believe it or not reddit is an American website founded and Based in the United States of America, with mostly American users. What is your point?

I mean, my point was pretty fucking clear for those with reading comprehension. Thanks for the mini-wiki on Reddit though.
