Social Do we need to snowflake shame millennials?

[VivaRevolution]

'South Park' co-creator reveals why critics bashed Dave Chappelle's comedy special that people loved


Stone also commented on the so-called "cancel culture," which involves social media outrage mobs boycotting people and brands. He said cancel culture is the result of an overly sensitive younger generation.

"It's new. I don't want to say it's the same as it's always been. The kids are f***ing different than us. There's a generational thing going on," he said. "I know some people have been canceled for genuinely, like, personal behavior, but Dave is not getting canceled anytime soon."

I've decided the answer to this question is yes, and I wanted to start here.

If you are a millennial, and not a snowflake, this isn't aimed at you, and you should take no offense.

If this rings home.......well then butter up buttercup, cause you are going to need some lube.

How do you think your parents feel about you being a sensitive little bitch?

How do you think all of society that is over 30 views you?

I don't want to be lectured by a person who needs a safe space or is offended by mean words.

When I went to school, I was worried about mean punches, mean knifes, and mean guns. Mean words were the least of my concerns.

So millennials, check your fucking priviledge brah. You are so spoiled, you have to make shit up to be offended by.

In short, fuck you, and fuck your shitty parents for not beating you.

Discuss.......

you know millenials are usually over 30 right? 1981-1996.

if you want to whine about young people try to get your label right.

As to the thread title, couldn't hurt.

I'm older but we were always told "sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me".
It's how we were taught some people are assholes and you're not allowed to break out a can of whoop ass on every kid that deserves it, which was probably the case for most of these snowflakes. They needed it. In any event, you don't do that. Not sure when that saying stopped, but it definitely did.
We have fucking adults nowadays who think it's OK to start wailing on someone who calls you a name or word you perceive as a slur you don't like. Even if they're 66 and you're 26 you have the right to swing on them. Which is also outrageous.

 

[Seano]

I think we do.

There's a weird fragility to millenials that needs to be purged from society. We can't let another generation be so soft and confused.

 

[Benny Viper]

Quick point of privilege. I know my generation sucks lmao.

Jesus Christ viva, you swallowed the pill.

Two names: Frank Zappa and George Carlin. They battled the same shit. And probably worse.

It's more of the same ruling class empowering faux outrage because it results in hysterical infighting amongst the worker class- like this very thread- instead of staying focused on real problems.

Yeah, we know who we are talking about. It's not like if you were born in 81, instead of 80, something magically changed.

If you were in your teens during the 90's, that is a very different person than someone that was a teen in the 2000's.

Hell even the cusp people who were 10, in 99, are way different than someone who was 10 in 2005.

The cutoff seems to actually be born before 1990, vs after.

 

[xcvbn]

I think we do.

No generation was softer than The Greatest Generation who voted a Socialist into the White House 4 times. And we're still fighting FDR's Radical Socialism today.

Millennials only power is fake outrage magnified tenfold by corporate media to make it seem relevant.

Naw man. I see this. The media isn't telling me this.

I meet plenty of young folk I am cool with. They aren't snowflakes. They are no different then any other age group.

I also meet a significant number of young people, who absolutely are snowflakes, and unapologetic about it. I think they need some shame.

Well, I change my mind. Your sample size of 3 has me convinced.

Lol Viva I'm a big fan of yours but dude your take here is complete sensationalist trash. Saturday night buzz?

 

[Simian Raticus]

I think this is actually more a gen Z thing.

A lot of millenials, like myself, are old enough to have caught a beatin' or two without our parents getting arrested.

Also think the cancel culture part has less to do with fragility, and is more the modern incarnation of the tendency of people to be assholes under the guise of moral indignation, which has always existed.

There's an interesting link here, because the 80s and 90s version of it was "think of the children", "stranger danger" etc (despite children being objectively safe than in the past). This type of stuff led to helicopter parenting being the norm, ergo a lot of young adults today being unable to cope with life.

Oh it's a bit of fun here for sure, but I can only speak from my personal experience.

I'm sure if you live in the hood, or sticks, people have very different experiences.

But where I live, it's not good.

As I was typing the op, I was thinking about how helicopter mom's are the root of this problem.

Remember the radical Christians of the 80s/90s banning any and everything on the radio/cassette/cd/cable/VHS? I would entertain the idea that what we have today is just a continuation of that, but the notion that suddenly things have changed is a bit absurd imo

Alright, well let me paint a cause and effect.

Helicopter mom's creating a different kind of person. That parenting changed, and the cause is helicopter mom's.

I have friends that have kids that are 14 years old, that they aren't allowed to leave at home alone because the mom doesn't think it is safe.

I ran the streets until 10PM when I was 7 years old, during the summer.

 

[Serenity Now]

First of all u need to know the real age gap here.

1985-1993 kids are good.....we could still say f-word, and say "thats gay" 24/7...we grew up fucking watching south park, beavis & butthead etc....we had the perfect mix of outdoor play/indoor play(video games etc)

1993+ kids tho are the problem here.....these kids weren't raised to say the f-word etc....Were raised to be mostly inside door kids(Playing videogames etc)...these kids are way fucking different.


Look bro, maybe the real solution is in the middle.....I dont believe in censoring but I also know that words do hurt...In my perfect world, no censoring will be allowed but if you talk shit, you have to fight somebody, specially if it turned out to be a lie..that will be me in my perfect society lol

 

[JimmyFresno]

Yes. They need to grow the fuck up.

I am a millennial (1983), but these kids born in the 90s are hard to relate to. They've never really had a fight, they think gruelling hard work is beneath them, loyalty and respect aren't words they can spell.

As has been said itt, their self-entitlement and narcissism is on par with hard-core religious groups at best, Commie-Nazis at worst.

Barney the Dinosaur came out in 1993. It is the kids who grew up watching that foolishness who are now the problem.
