The fukk are you even talking about?

Gen Xers never had political power. What Gen X Presidents/ Senators have we had??

Who is doing there best to destroy all the gains from the New Deal Era?
These fukking sellout Boomers. Boomer Clinton betrayed the New Deal. Signed NAFTA, Deregulated banks and signed the Telecomm Act.
GW Bush, hell we know what he did.



Bill Clinton was a pretty good president for a republican

Michael Moore.



I use to always wonder why he said that back in the 2000s but as I got older I definitely agree with him there.

And those are the parents and aunties of Gen z :mjlol:


How is anyone surprised with how today’s kids are, they literally don’t have shyt to look up to

The kids of people that followed DMX and other super thug rappers of the late 90s, are these drug addict simping tricking heads that look at their super-tough parents as monumental failures.

It’s like these nikkas don’t get it, they’ve seen Jay nem grow up and mature but too many are stuck either in their early 20s or are trying to create the early 20s they wish they had.

Millenials are shaping up to be even worse as far as immaturity goes

At least Larsa Pippen got married and had kids. A lot of millenials wont even do that because kids and marriage gets in the way of their hedonism

Deadass I really believe part of the reason Gen Z is so rebellious is because a lot of them truly do see their parents as failures, and they see their parents Gen did NOTHING at all to help them because the internet gives them all this information for FREE

That’s fair.


Therapy only became “acceptable” in this recent generation tho.

The only people we saw seeking therapy were alcoholics and drug addicts, not “normal” people who severely needed to unpack bullshyt their parents put on them because they didn’t have time to tend to their own trauma


As a Generation X’er I’m excited to see what the young folks do going forward because y’all have a self awareness to realize y’all aren’t ok. .. we didn’t because we had to tuck our feelings under the “leave me the fukk alone” mindset we adopted thanks to boomers who didn’t know what to do with themselves as they grew up off their parents success

There’s a LOT of folks walking around in clear need of therapy in 2020.


The cooler going and getting help becomes the better

and Millenials/GenZ seem on the cusp of tending to how they’re feeling by being open about it.

Y’all are under a pressure no other gen has had to endure. We could take an L and go away to quietly deal. Y’all can’t.

Y’all are ON 24/7 you can’t catch an L in private anymore.

If a kid pissed his pants on a zoom class one of the lil jerks in the meeting would screen shot and put it on Snapchat, the internet is forever.

There’s someone with a camera seeking clout at every turn.


That’s why I’ll always do what I can to be an ally to folks coming up.

shyt is very different for y’all


did gen x and boomers fukk up on some coward shyt? of course. but i see that same mentality in my generation. like i said before, gen x and boomers had some amazing artists, especially gen x with where they took the culture and where they're taking it.

i give gen x a lot of credit, because its hard to be a proud loser/hater in gen x generation. underground boomers really set up gen x well.

hater ass gen xers tryin hard to act like they're down with their vintage band shirts, and halter tops, and ripped jeans and vans doing brunch in williamsburg.

they're super embarrassed that kanye is the voice of their generation. tbh, on some silent generation shyt, i don't think the boomers had somebody that was their voice. they were too busy trying to get lost in respectability. they're embarrassed by kanye, but they want to be him.


a lot of gen xers are jealous because they were too afraid to live how they wanted and now they're doing it vicariously through their kids. millennials are not friends with our parents.

gen z's first fake friend is their gen x parent. i knew my parents weren't my friends and i still trusted them way more than i should have.

but maybe gen xers will be easier to call out by gen z. i don't see gen x ever growing up and i like that. yall brought face tat culture to the foreground.

yall grew up in the 90s where u can get shot for hangin out on the lower east side for the wrong reasons. yall was really outside, while boomers, while a very tough generation, just wanted to go to work and back because of the things they saw.

gen xers embraced that danger. yall stuck between a 9-5 and raging. yall lost a lot of yall voices young just like gen z. tupac, big, kurt, xxxtentacion, lil peep, juice wrld.

millenials is really like boomers. we hardcore fr. lost of millenials is in the middle of the country rn getting high, pressin fake pills, and gettin into fukkery.

the other half is pretending to be their boomer parents working a 9-5 that don't even come close to paying the bills like it did for their parents.

kanye represents gen x the best because he actually cares about the future and not just himself. for most gen x and boomers, young ppl are just props. they won't let them be anything else, because many of them are godless nihilist who refuse to confront their own mortality. gen x still the coolest gen rn. yall got kanye, a genius designer whose brave and creative, and we got drake, a lightskin version of 808s and heartbreak kanye. drake my dude tho and im very happy to have him be the voice of my gen despite how boring and whiny he can sometimes be. i've had drake since i was 19. gen z still ain't got nobody.

i had to get away from boomers. they still look at me like a toy. because if they don't have to "take me serious yet" then that means they're still in charge.

i have no problem with that, but if being in charge is predicated on others being helpless, then you're just in charge of handicapping.

pac was a genius. he knew that we are God's ppl. he was just tryna figure out how to say it. he made a lot of mistakes, but ppl forget that he didn't even get to see 25. i love that we have kanye and jay z. i was just outta diapers when pac died, and even then i knew we took that L as a culture. he had a voice fr. he wasn't afraid of the backlash he would get from his own ppl because they were jealous that he made it without having some respectable route in a country that was built on the furthest things from respectability.

The same generation that was also let down by the generation before them. They thought the end of the civil rights movement was going to bring prosperity and celebrated recklessly during the disco era

The same generation that had to fend for itself because the family structure was destroyed due to welfare, crack, aids & reaganomics

The same generation that because of the reasons above, lost guidance & had to supervise themselves. Known as latchkey kids

The same generation that had to deal with boomers during their prime

The same generation that had to quickly adapt to emerging technology or be left behind. What they were taught while growing up had to be discarded due to the digital age. No more jobs with just a high school diploma

The same generation that has less members, were misunderstood, abandoned, called slackers. This turned a good amount to be cynical & less likely to trust others

The same generation that tried to school the younger ones TO THIS DAY, but is ignored & called haters

So yeah

Came to say this. People wilding in this thread.

Gen X had to deal with AIDS, the crack era, the Cold War, and the worst crime/violence in major cities this country has ever seen....all within like 15 years. And then people wonder why we didn't accomplish more. :dead:

Gen X is a smaller group. They kinda fly under the radar. They were also dismissed as cynical MTV generation.
