    The Murdock entertainment conglomerate has been poisoning "entitlement" for a good while. Fox's "entitled welfare queens" shtick has been going on since Clinton was in office.

      Huh. Maybe I just didn't notice that until after Mass Effect 3. I was old enough to have been around and paying attention during :billdawg: too. :blob-no-thoughts:

      Before then I remember a lot of "welfare queen" talk for sure, but not with the "stop being so entitled" angle.

        Maybe I'm conflating two different media pushes. I do remember Fox calling Americans entitled when Obama was in office, and it got picked up in general -- "you young kids are so entitled these days" kinda stuff

          I suppose I was lucky enough to be not watching Fox and being, at the time, far enough away from the chuds that were around when I was a kid while going through college.
