Gen Z and young millennials under 30 canceled out every voter over age 65 across US

[Sympthsical]

34. But isn't that the point?

I'm a Millennial and hear shit from older generations nonstop. The ire is shifting towards Gen Z now. "Youth never vote, we shouldn't go out of our way on their issues, blah blah, etc." (I'm not youth, damnit. I'm freakin middle aged now).

Hey. I always vote. A lot of my friends always vote.

So when "Ok, Boomer" came out and people started getting mad and saying it was unfair, my only response was, "Oh. Don't like being generalized based on your generation. Weird, right?"

It felt like self-awareness was just. about. this. close. But, alas. Many people never quite made it. They just got mad and kept going.

It's very whatever. People are people no matter their identity.

But it was deeply funny at the time. Just that, "How dare you?!" of it all after all the relentless generational bashing of Millennials and Z. Your lawn - we steppin on it.

I try not to get roped into generational things (and often fail). But when the student loan debate started and it was stories of "I worked through college! Booootstraps!" Hey, grandpa? College was like three bucks a semester that you worked at a gas station twelves hours a week to pay for. It did not ask for your future firstborn like some sort of bizarre academic Rumpelstiltskin.

Hyperbole, but yeah. I'm coming in hard with fists and memes at that point.
