I thought the narrative was pretty coherent as far as weird internet shit goes.

    The real question is who is writing these articles? Are there really that many X'er talking heads who still haven't figured out neo-dada post-irony shit?

    And who are the articles for? Are there some just incredibly boring millenials who have been living off-grid since 2001 and are just now returning to society?

      Honey the same 6 articles about generational discourse get recycled for the current socio political climate every 6 months by 100 different journalists. I'm only in my 20s but I've seen each of these articles written at least a dozen different ways in my lifetime

      • doesn't want to work, cares too much about being nice (activism, minorities, positive workculture) and not being nose to the grindstone

      • strange sense of humor that is obviously dumb and bad

      • foppish, effeminate, weak men and tacky, self absorbed women

      • knows nothing about politics and doesn't care

      • isn't interested in learning the "important" skills, trades, degrees

      • doesn't respect parents, authority, country, family, faith

      edit: by the way this has been going on for millennia. The fucking romans pulled the same shit. Its always the same.

      I can't tell what website this was published on, but like all things, it's liable to be a mix of genuine confusion and cynical grabs for attention
