“Voters under 30 predominantly voted Democrat in every U.S. state. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You’re the generation that’s supposed to get us out of this pathetic situation we’re in,” writes Joey Mannarino on X.
Karma will be a bitch. Put another way: Mistakes have consequences. 30 years from now, they will still be blaming white heterosexual men, “racism”, the lack of guaranteed “affordability,” and the unfair plight of transgenders. On the whole, as I have been saying, this is a lost generation (or two). I do feel profoundly for the minority of under 30 who must live through what’s coming, and who didn’t ask for any of it.
Some responses from this post from my Facebook thread:
They didn’t ask for it, but a lot of them were warned and they chose to follow the lemmings.
They are voting their way to Communism/ Socialism just like Venezuela. The problem is they will have to shoot their way out because the only way Venezuela got out was the USA. With the policies they are voting for they will be defenseless, because they are coming for their arms. SMH
The most coddled generation or two ever to walk the earth. Many not knowing the how or why they were coddled because they were too busy being shuttled to their next “select” event, and didn’t see their parents and grandparents struggles to pay for their entertainment. Nor were they taught actual history. All the while being told they were great for getting 8th place in a category of 8. Then the real world hits them as adults and they suddenly realize that what was once given to them without fail now requires actual talent to get the best stuff. And instead of everyone getting the same medal (stuff), now only the best guy does. NOT FAIR! They say. Well, from their perspective they are right I suppose, because that’s how life always was for them. What a bunch of losers.
They’re mostly the indoctrinated-by-public-schools generation.
This helps prove my theory that academia has been the primary catalyst used by the left to indoctrinate the youth. I went back to school in 2009 using my VA benefits. I saw first hand how the leftist were pushing their BS. Then when I was a professor at a college for 6 years I saw leftist professors pushing their propaganda. I always had students that liked that I didn’t push an agenda and they always told me how they had a professor that had. I always knew who their were talking about.
We must free academia from the leftists pushing their agendas and then we can free the minds of the youth with our propaganda and indoctrination.
Nope, they are the softest generation ever. Nurtured during the pandemic where nothing was expected of them and everything was provided. A person can get quite used to that in those developmental years. No, we’re all screwed.
That is a generation of spoiled brats. They have no idea what it is to do without. They will soon find out.
You can’t blame them. It is the total lack of economic and historical education in our schools.
Why blame the kids? Who was responsible for oversight on this whole mess? Who allowed the rot in their schools? Who assured they’d learn inclusivity instead of math and reading? Who sends their kids and grandkids off to these horrible colleges? Who screams and hollers for their stuff whenever it’s suggested that the systems need reform or will collapse under their own weight? Who holds the majority of the wealth in this nation but are largely absent when it comes to supporting things that try to operate outside the government (true charities)…..um, sorry. There’s plenty of blame to go around, but it should not be placed on the younger generations. WE are the weak men that created the hard times.
“You’re the generation supposed to get us out of this situation “
Excuse me sir, but what about all the idiots of our age who squandered their control of Congress?
What about the all the idiots who allowed inadequate Republican candidates to be nominated?
Stop whining , put in your big kid pants and accept responsibility for your part in all this.
And then stop this self indulgent, Chicken Little, fatalist no sense and start to build the world you want to see.
Grow up
You are just too doggone commonsensical and moral Michael. And not fooled by the BS that permeates society and culture today. I’m right there with you.
