Yup. However, as a millennial, I resent the claim that only our generation is filled with idi0ts. Yes, we do a lot of dumb things, but so did every other generation before us.
I am actually capable of doing the math on who does the most harm. It's not constructive, but let's just say nobody comes away looking good.
the math shows that the world has never been as awesome as it is now, yeey millenials !

The tide pods. Hippies weren't the problematic part of that generation, so there's a ton of blame for that generation too.
To be fair, I'm pretty sure everyone felt like that when they were a teenager; at least the more introverted ones. I know I had nothing but contempt for most of my high school class as a teenager, but these days I'm more baffled and/or indifferent.
I’m actually pretty extrovert. They just do too many cringy things, at least in the US
No need for the qualifier then! I was worried I was painting with too broad a brush, but was fairly certain all the more introverted teenagers I've known hated their generation. So, eh.

*cough cough* tide pods *cough cough*
I think that anyone born between 1999-2003 should be part of the “Hybrid” generation since we’re not **** enough to eat tide pods and don’t want to be associated with the 12 year olds that did...and we’re not millennials either. Yet we have attributes of both millennials and gen z.
If you think people your own age didn't do the "tide pod challenge" or something equally dense then you're naive. Just saying.
No, I realize people my age are that dumb as well but I think it sort of rules out the majority of people my age from any sort of discussion because people from our generation have been dumb enough to eat a tide pod, which is a hasty generalization (for example, I have watched political debates where the argument against someone my age was "I can't take anyone who was eating tide pods a week ago seriously") considering that the majority actually did not eat tide pods, and anyone who insists that my generation can't be taken seriously because of the minority that ate tide pods is as dense as anyone dumb enough to sitck laundry detergent in their mouth.
Eh, people being dismissive of the younger generation is just something that happens; especially when it's about love and/or politics. The consensus--from that point of view--generally is "you don't have the life experience to understand what you're talking about and therefore shouldn't have an opinion on it" or if they're a little more scientific they'll point out that the prefrontal cortex isn't fully developed until the mid twenties (personality, logic, decision making, etc, etc, etc). Sucks, but it is what it is.
As far as that "argument" that's just when you take full license to be obnoxious. Pretend you're kittenposting on the internet and shout "strawman!" or "ab hominem!" over and over again until they roll their eyes and walk away, or just go the Molyneux (no need to watch any of the hour long plus videos from the guy) route of "not an argument!"

Never stated it was a high ground. Rather, simply stated there is rarely evidence of our dumb stuff- which we in fact did.
I heard of the tide pod thing a while back, my eyebrow was raised and made me think of how we could make eugenics work.......then I considered most of the people favouring eugenics are various asterisks worth of unpleasant language (myself included if I stick by the line of thinking).
So according to science, the human raced is boned either way. The less intelligent will make the film Idiocracy a documentary and the smart people will destroy the universe.
Also given the amount of proof reading and inability to use a keyboard properly still after 37 years means my genetic material is not desirable anyway.

That will be an interesting story to explain a few years down the road when people are eating...whatever, I don't even wanna suggest something as a joke.

Edit: That's awesome man! None of my irl friends have the patience to play this game, so I enjoy chatting with my guildies. Everyone in my guild lives far away from me, but that changes nothing.

I feel like millennials themselves are waaaay too hard on themselves. Every metric says you guys are and will continue to be an amazing generation. We can dismiss the tide pod guys, because everywhere else you guys are crushing it.
Stand out stuff for me: Ironically, millennials don’t cash in ridiculously huge paychecks, but their sheer numbers still create quite the impact - especially since these people tend to rely on their peers for social reference regarding the brands they support.
Millennials like brands they could trust. We all do, in a way, but this generation is particularly known for it, which may be a result of growing up with all the necessary information just a click away.
This means that the crooked companies will fall out of the running to leave the ethical underdogs in first place
Think about that. For a traditional corporation, that's horrifying. Companies already depend on these consumers, and they can't just not be bad, the must do good works. If they don't, millenials will just support companies that do and not yours. Betray trust and it could go viral and you could be dead overnight. Sounds like an effing win to me.

Had to type it in again because this thing got weird when I was typing this with your comment being quoted.
It's also important to remember these hard generational lines are artificial and pretty meaningless outside of targeted advertising. Many of the things attributed to millenials in the link I posted apply to multiple generations (ie if you're on this site, you probably have 2-3 tech devices and touch them 45 times+ a day). It's just how people are moving. That's generally a good thing.
