You guys still flew in their like limp ed beta males and got all over. Well, the ones that weren’t total pussies and actually went to fight. I’m sure your “bone spurs” kept you at home.
Such poor education in your age group. Korea? Chinese are tough, poured many, many thousands into Nam. Was a bad war with bad greatest gen leadership anyway. Pray you don’t get your chance but likely if and when you will have duck that and all those Call to Duty skills will go to waste.

The graph shows that more Xers and even Boomers lean Democrat. I also expect the political leanings of millennials to progress to a similar 50/50 split since some do become more conservative as they age (at least it seems that way for white voters). Although, as someone else said, the Millennials racial demographic may guard against that happening.
They did the same thing in Korea and a better generation managed to fight them back to a stalemate, and didn’t come home with their tail between their legsSuch poor education in your age group.

Current education system is clearly for . All these millenials should demand their money back.
Boomers get mad about their parenting skills being questioned.
Then proceed to blame their parents for all their failures
Really? Got an F in history I see.
I was too young for VN chubby.
You sure pretend to be a bad ass internet warrior for a fat little , though..
don’t blame us for how millennials turned out
“Too young” is that code for “ran to Canada like a pussy”?
So a few ragheads have pushed your in? I wouldn’t go their, I respect the sacrifice they’ve made and make so you can hide in your parents basement and play internet warrior. I don’t generalize though, most millennials aren’t Assholes like you.
There was no retreating in total defeat like boomer es in Vietnam.
So what was your pussy excuse for not fighting the VC? Bone spurs? Flat feet?
Second year medical school when it ended. And your excuse for not enlisting and serving internet warrior?
When I finished I would have been drafted and gone. Only hear crickets of why your pussified ass is hiding in the basement. So long chicken .
woulda coulda shoulda
I'm Gen X but I'd put Millennials ahead of us, tbh.
Millennials are much more about experience than possession. They're more socially conscious, and they support independent businesses more than chains. They're the GoFundMe/Kickstarter generation. I've worked with a ton of them and I haven't seen much of the legendary en lement. They generally work longer hours for less pay than their bosses ever did.
Whereas previous generations generally popped out 2 or 3 babies and bought a ty house before they could really afford it, Millennials seem more content to wait.
As far as music, you can blame them for listening to ty music as teens but that stuff was being forced on them by Boomer/GenX-owned stations. Millennials ushered in the digital music age which widely expanded availability and access to independent music.
I agree, though, that Boomers ing suck.
Where was the banner we hung in Ho Chi Minh City? That's right, there wasn't one.
CC is right that that Vietnam war was forced on boomers by the greatest generation/silent generation:...don’t really have much sympathy tho when boomers did the same ing thing forcing the war in Iraq on millennials and gen Xers.
We accept you as one of our own bruh. Honorary millennial.

Millennials bestowed the world with MOAR FREEDOM!!!!
Boomers let the Commies win, smh
Btw this graph proves my point about the silent generation.
They're about as republican/right leaning as boomers. But anyhow, this is just a "fun thread." In reality, no generation is really inherently "better" than another. As I've said in the other threads, it's really about rich vs. "ordinary," right vs. left, etc. We can expect rich and/or republican millennials to pass the same kind of policy as any rich or republican boomer has. You can bet there will be a lot of Charlie Kirk clones holding office in the coming decades.
For all the negative traits millennials claim boomers have, the silent generation has them worse.
Also while I’d much rather have a real democracy with impartial politicians, if I had to choose between oligarchs who control policy in this country, I’d easily prefer the Mark Zucka /Elon Musk types over the Koch Brothers or Mike Bloomer.
Boomers don't have a bannerPERIOD
I can't agree with this. I'm not challenging your anecdotes, because that is your personal experience.
Millennials are much more about experience than possession.
Yeah, as long as that experience can be shared (and then commodified) through social networking sites, which basically turns millennials into unwitting employees of facebook et al as they freely create content for those platforms. And millennials seem to only "be about experiences" if there's someone else to click the like button on their picture of avocado toast. Point is, millennials don't seek out these experiences for personal growth, but for social validation, which ironically makes them the ultimate consumers.
They're more socially conscious, and they support independent businesses more than chains.
They're connected to Amazon Prime by an umbilical cord. The massive retail apocalypse around the country, which mom-and-pop business have taken the brunt of, even more so than chains, shows that millennials aren't really about supporting local businesses and chains. My anecdote here is in that my town, I've seen mom-and-pop store after mom-and-pop store shutter, while the only store to really draw a millennial crowd was a marijuana dispensary. That's apparently what they have money for, in additional to avocado toast and smartphones.
They pose themselves as the "green generation," yet buy a new smartphone every year in addition to some other useless electronic gadget that doesn't really solve a problem, like those idiotic smart speakers. I said in another thread, the carbon footprint of smartphone use and manufacturing is projected to be greater than carbon footprint of transportation in 20 years.
They don't vote. They are either apathetic (yet complain on twitter) or sulk when their pet candidate doesn't win a primary and cut their noses off to spite their face. Boo hoo, in' Bernie didn't win the 2016 nom. Most of us will never, ever have a candidate that aligns with all of our values, and the best thing you can do in most cases is vote for the lesser of two evils. Millennials took their ball and went home in 2016, and Donald in' Trump was the result.
Their music is unbelievably ty, and always has been. But that's subjective. So are movies that cater to their tastes, especially these in' superhero films.
