The goofy part about this type of generational cock contest meme is that we all live through it together. Every generation alive has gone through horrific shit and every generation has gone through periods of peace. Some for longer than others.

I'm a millennial and I have been pretty lucky if I may say so myself. Compared to what young people and kids go through today, us older generations had it good.

Yes, our times of youth also brought on wars and economic struggles and what not, but they came in intervals.

Nowadays it is all happening at the same time and at lightening speed.

And us peeps, boomers, Gen X and millennials sit here all smug about it, like we went through ANYTHING comparable to what young people go through today.

We had it good. We are lucky to all be in our 30s and up during this stretch of history. I feel for the youths of today. They are the ones going through some shit in their formative years.

The 2020s are happening to all of us, but the kids of today have way more worries thrust upon them than any of us old fucks ever did.

I vote for "the screaming twenties" to be the official name for this decade. Brilliant.

If you were concerned, then why not send a private message instead? "Not trying to be rude", sure. Sounds like you're trying to intimidate. Maybe you shouldn't do that.

How do you explain OJ, then?

The Bible is more of less a study in human error and human potential. Of course they have caught on to the concept of narcissistic idiots in power being a bad thing. I'm sure there were plenty of those back in the day and plenty who were far worse than trump.

Hell, we have leaders right now in the world who are worse than trump and they have all been in power for decades. The biggest difference is that most of them are smarter and more cunning than trump, who is an 80 year old toddler that wants attention all the time.

It must be embarrassing to be American.

What they have basically done is mug a rape victim.

True. It is not a boomer who made that meme. It is either a troll or yet another bitter Gen X.

When the fuck do we get to retire from the "young and stupid" category?

Also, I had red eyes in most photos from my child- and teenhood. I spent a lot of money on film in my teens before I got my first phone with a proper camera in 2007.

Next you're gonna condescendingly explain what a floppy disc or a cassette tape is too? Even Gen z is old enough to know about those.

I heard it's hard for many Americans to find jobs, so I guess trump fixed two problems with one action: deported a bunch of people whom he doesn't like, and opened up job opportunities for Americans. Win/win, innit?

That's fair. I have fallen for fake news myself a few times too.

I mean... he did meet Vance. I don't know why there was lies being spread around about that. All you have to do is do a quick little search and you'll get pics from several angles of the pope and Vance chatting.

I will say, though, that the pope looked rough, so it isn't super surprising that he passed shortly after.
