Popular Post villagefarang Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2019 We had our time and they will have theirs. It seems fair to me. Each generation has their own chance to screw things up as much as they want.???? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runamok27 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I get the feeling they want to turn the world into the same as the world in Demolition Man. I just can't figure out who Dr. Cocteau is yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bert bloggs Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2019 I am not sure if half the stuff we read in the papers are true about them ,but to be honest it is scary that people who have never really had a life of going without will be able to cope when times get tough ,or if there is another war or disaster,the young do seem to expect everything on a plate ,i love my grandkids and nieces and nephews to bits , but a couple are so left wing ,they male Corbyn look like a tory ,then my youngest granddaughter, has been taught in school that all is normal ,i wont go into it as i will get roasted by some on here ,but she knows nothing else , 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HuskerDo Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2019 Most of us will be dead before that ever happens so who cares? Millennials are already ruining the world. Previous generations have created electricity, the locomotive, the telephone, solar power, the internet, the cell phone, the computer, NASA and trips to the moon, satellite communications, eradication of many diseases, etc. What have the millennials created? Bitcoin and Social Media. The latter is ruining the world and the former will never amount to anything. Thanks millennials. Get to work doing something important for the world. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Roy Baht Posted November 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2019 "OK, Boomer!" would be the Millenial response to this claptrap. "Thanks for destroying the planet and then dying without fixing it." I actually feel sorry for the young people of today. If comfort spaces and hand-waving are the neurotic rituals they need to cope with the horrific mountain of <deleted> they are inheriting, let them wave away. Were they the "normal people" that we are, they'd just be giving us all the finger. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shy coconut Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I'm sure all the old folk in the 1960's felt the same way about the hippies. The world will continue to spin and politics and religion will continue to stuff things up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riclag Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) The elders say this about every generation ,example Elvis Presley rock & Roll ducktale beatnik's and the flower generation hippie Lsd crowd. Your millennial's are no different! Still it is very disturbing that they turn to socialist radical ideas of total Gov control of individuals ! Sad!

I think a certain country will conquer them because they are too soft to win against that country, and those that are not killed will be slaves. Can anyone of us oldies imagine that bunch of softies in a world war? Either that, or another black death caused by abuse of antibiotics creating antibiotic resistant bugs.

Oh they can do much worse and would if they could. Their dogma is all about revenge and taking from people what is rightfully theirs. Don't forget that leftwing ideology has killed more people throughout history than rightwing ideology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that thinks which of 35 or something genders they are is important is too soft to survive in the real world. Anyway, they are going to get a swift sharp shock when all the jobs are done by robotics AI and they have to survive on a "living wage" pittance.
