- The youth will always be the cutting edge. As you age, you have two options - remain edgy with them, and keep your spirit intact, or view the next generation as problematic for not adhering to your current standards (forgetting that YOU didn't adhere to them when YOU were young), and become just another stuffy, preachy adult.

Grandpa Simpson said it best when he said "I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to you!"
Back when the Simpsons used to be good.... Way back...
The Simpsons lost itself long ago in trying to stay relevant, but Homerpalooza was the one time where becoming irrelevant actually made it MORE relevant.
I was never with it. Still not.

Thats because only thing they see is kids playing a violent game and that makes violent game bad.
The irony is that one of the programmers for the game, Sandy Petersen, is a Mormon and more or less made fun of the controversy.
Because guns are scary

@Charlos Really? Because they have turned the land of the free, and the home of the brave, into a country where Kyle Rittenhouse almost gets convicted of murder.
Honestly is almost ironic how communists have properly weaponized capitlism biggest both fault and feature, it's tendency to hyper-boost massive acumulations of wealth and power in a few hands.
Which has backfired now that Bigtech has now got both accumulated the power of nations but also has fallen for the leftist indoctrination. And that's exactly de problem with having massive amounts of power concentrated into a few hands, makes power too easily corruptible.

@@KopitioBozynski The revenge of Generation Alpha!
So we just skip Gen X? My favourite generation which raised me on the late 90s/early 00s internet and video games. Millennials like to destroy shit however I feel the opposite in which I want to create, I'm reaching my mid 30s and my life is the best it's ever been.
I'll never forget the Osama Bin Laden costume someone wore on Halloween in Middle school and he screamed OLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO before security got him sent to the office. This was almost a DECADE ago. That was a prank then, but now it would be considered offensive today.

Offensive? It would be considered a hate crime!

Offensive? I think it's not in amazing taste, but by and large, hilarious.

Still, he isn’t entirely wrong. Most folks struggle through their 20s to establish themselves and can finally do something at around 30. After that it’s enjoying your time, building the next gen, and saving up to regret time. It’s a somewhat bitter cycle when you think about it.

Maybe that will be the key difference between millenials and gen z when looked back in history: The millenials thought they were always the youth, but gen z grew up before they even left highschool.
I had “Im getting old” moments when I think about renting videos and tapes from Blockbuster, still playing with my 3DS or watching Boomerang on a box tv even though I’m only 17. It’s wild
Feel similarly as a millennial who grew up with the PS1 around the time the PS2 was released, but I guess that made me appreciate older things. Also curious, but do you believe with the rise and normalization of the internet or "Information Age" people are expecting results immediately instead of waiting for some things?
The years get shorter as you get older. Once I hit 28, the past 10 years felt like 5 or 6 years.
@@GTADriver1 people totally have issues with instant gratification. Even I'm guilty of that. Also SexualYeti, that is SO TRUE about us having to grow up too fast
I'm turning 41 in a week and in some ways I feel like my life hasn't even gotten started yet but at the same time opportunities to do things like having a family are drying up. Our parents generation really fucked us all up by not instilling in us a better sense of responsibility and urgency that life requires. I kept being told "you're still young. You have time." When I was 30 my mom told me I shouldn't worry about having kids because SHE wasn't ready to be a grandmother. I wasn't in a position to at the time anyway but it was a very asinine thing to tell her 30 yr old daughter. Now I'm even older and just figuring out how much damage the child worship/self esteem movement and the continuation of feminism did to me and our generation. Even if we realize it now, the damage has been done. There is no going back and fixing it and so the next couple generations are going to be weaker for it as well because we're not going to be a strong foundation for them to build on.
I'm Gen X. My first console was an Atari 2600. I was one of those "latchkey kids" that was on my own after school because both my parents worked.
I was a hockey player. We lived for insult humor. It's how we bonded. We were deliberately offensive because we found the reaction hilarious. We were a walking shitpost.
I remember the satanic panic all too well. My best friend and I used to wear a specific Slayer tee with a Nazi being crucified. To church. Just to watch the old biddies clutch their pearls. We found it hysterical.
That was also the era of the AIDS epidemic. People close to us were dying. Dark humor became a coping mechanism.
That's why the modern culture of offense and oppression olympics is so foreign to me. It even begins to feel dangerous when coupled with the gleeful vigilantism of cancel culture.
When I was a kid I copied lines of Basic from a magazine into an Amstrad 464 and saved it to a cassette tape that could take up to forty minutes to load.
@@Jason_Black my dad bought a computer magazine back in the day with a basic program for the Apple IIE that made it talk. He'd type in cuss words so we could giggle like idiots at the pronunciations. My mom would scold us even though we knew she secretly thought it was as funny as we did.
My dad's been gone four years now and I miss that warped old bastard.
I learned to program in basic on an apple II in 1983. Summer school.
I had the posters from the KISS solo albums on the wall next to my bed. I had painted the bottom of one foot of my Star Wars figures with blue paint, so I wouldn't mix them up with my friends' figures at sleepovers.
GenZ is really hard into dark humor, absurdist humor, and self deprication. Just as the Millenials were reacting to you, we’re reacting to them.
@@surprisedchar2458 Yeah. Gen X, too. I think its from coming up behind a self-absorbed generation.
Maybe that's why I like you guys so much. We both watched hysterical assholes act wildly and change very little for the good. We share the "smh" experience.

Like when my son, back in 2016, told his Filipino friend Jeremy, "When Trump wins, you're going right back to Mexico."
"Uh... I'm not Mexican..."
"YOU know where you're going!"
He just graduated, and was weighing the idea of his final English project (a position paper) being a treatise on how COVID has demonstrated that teachers are obsolete. I managed to talk him out of it...
But why, why would you do that
Stop clipping your son's wings!!!
Obsolete? No, but definitely bloated and in need of a trim. My mother is a high school teacher; I've heard enough horror stories between Her and and doomscrolling on UA-cam to firmly believe that the education apparatus, particularly in terms of administration and extracurriculars, is largely vestigial.
@@chesterstevens8870 well said!
I like the elder role. I work with a lot of teenagers at my job, and I try to talk to them and shoot straight. I think a lot of young people are desperate for that kind of interaction, just someone to talk to them and ask them what they think about things. One of the girls even calls me her work mom. I don't have children of my own, so this is all right.
My first console was an NES. Sega is still my favorite though.
I'm on the cusp of Gen X and millennial.
I'm in my early 20's so I'm not that old, yet seeing my younger relatives look up to me whenever my family visits them makes me really comfortable with the idea of being in that role
Good for you, still wish you would have tackled the biggest thing in our lives called "continuing the cycle of life".

It was like being on another planet.
It's true. We're the last analog generation. The generations after is will never know a world without the net.
Monty Cantsin: The young will only know smartphones. So much has changed in such little time. I grew up on VHS and the Sega Genesis.
As an older Millenial who doesn't care much for social media, I miss the days of ppl trying to live as a community with ppl you may or may not like. The internet creates huge communities of like-minded people and you have so many weirdos right now under this delusion that the community they are in should be real life to the point that they are willing to be tyrants about it.
I feel like a bunch of this would be solved if we took away the "like" buttons (much like dislike buttons are now hidden). That way, people are unsure whether their opinions are good or bad and would be forced to reevaluate it through discussion.
@@maryford3676 I agree, but communities, subcultures and cliques used to form around common interests rather than politics as they seem to do with social media. And when someone's politics or religion are their main interest, it usually makes for an unpleasant person who tends to be tyrannical.
My friend group in the late 80's and 90's covered the spectrum of ideology, religion and worldviews, but it was centered on music, hobbies and interests. We all agreed on the most important things. Now people get "unfriended" over political positions. It's disgusting and sad that young people have to experience life this way.
@@montycantsin8861 Eh, I'd say the main cut off question is "Do you remember/Did you have dial-up?" Yeah - it was the internet, but it came with a heavy cost: Your phone line. Now you can sit online all day without a care in the world (or your parents screaming at you to log off WC2 because they're expecting a phone call).
SFO encounters a grey hair. The single faded strand scared off several zoomers, SJWs, and BLMers, yet left him standing in a pool of existential questions. It was the first chill of winter, the announcement heralding the end of a trip, and the scent of overly ripening fruit.
Something something don't learn history, something something repeat it.
And if you do, you repeat quotes too.
Nomoturtle But you have to say it’s an apt quote. The failures of yesteryear are the answers for the test no one ever studies for.
@@davidthorp01 I agree, was poking fun.
When you have an entire generation that was so spoiled all their lives and was constantly told how right they are, it becomes no surprise they grew up as miserable adults who don't want to grow up.
Baby Boomers: "God, Millennials are horrible. They weren't raised right."
"And who raised them?"
"..."
As a Zoomer, I unironically sometimes hate Millennials too, but I'm even more mad at Baby Boomers for screwing it up so bad. The Greatest Generation and the Silent Generation handed it to them on a silver platter, gave them a knife, and said your only job is to carve it up yourself and eat well. The Boomers went "Man, eating all this food handed to me for practically nothing is hard work, but I'm still kinda hungry." And then they proceeded to butcher the goose that lays the golden eggs. They told Millennials that hard work was all you needed to succeed, and that you deserve success if you work hard (A lie that many older generations would readily prove as such with all their hard work they had nothing to show for) and so when Millennials went out into an America no longer in its greatest period of economic expansion thanks in no small part due to the self-serving policies of the Boomers that bought today's amenities on tomorrow's dime, instead of saying "Damn, my pops lied to me. It's not get an education, get a job, simple easy life. Better get working at it." they instead said "Hey, this is bullshit. I deserve better. I deserve more. It's because of all the "isms" of the world, and not because I thought I could do whatever I want and still get paid."
In the middle of it all is of course Gen X, raised by the Silent Generation who themselves had very rough childhoods and very successful adulthoods. Gen X didn't have it as easy as the Boomers, had it easier than Millennials, and were far better prepared for it all than Millennials, turned out pretty alright and mostly understand Millennial struggles because they did it too, just not quite as bad. This is the generation raising Gen Z, and if it weren't for the Internet, my generation would be turning out quite alright. My world right before social media went mainstream was one of the lowest racism, sexism, and all the other "isms", highest general prosperity even if it wasn't evenly distributed, and best education because information now flowed much more freely and we understood things in far greater depth than just 50 years prior. Social media upended a lot of that progress though because it's hijacked our minds. I can see it within Zoomers. Older Zoomers are doing way better than younger ones, because us older ones didn't get unrestricted Internet until middle school and instead were either outdoors with friends or playing our older cousin's N64 handed down to us or the Wii we just got with our siblings and the neighbor kids. We kinda got the best of all worlds. The lack of entitlement passed down by Gen X (2008 instilled it in us young), the free flow of information and fun of the digital age, a childhood without phones or social media, and the shadow of 1990s liberalism making us far more internally tolerant down in our heart of hearts. Well, at least, that was true until we grew up and had our minds corrupted by social media. Now most of that isn't even remotely true. But some of us have retained our initial upbringing and are doing great.
I remember once in middle school seeing a swastika on the bathroom stall and thinking something along the lines of "Eh, it's probably a prank." I'm autistic. At the time, I couldn't fathom many of the things other kids did or said, but I somehow picked up on the popularity of edgy jokes and that just stuck with me. I'm nearly 30 now. If I haven't forgotten what it was like to be a kid by now, a 35 year-old writer has no excuse.
I remember when I was 14 in 2015 all the boys were being edgy with swastikas and holocaust jokes. Loads of 9/11 jokes. It's hard to find 9/11 jokes anymore. Maybe it's because I lived in a conservative area but i don't think the edginess of teens has really ended, maybe died down a bit
@@jlall4467the most edgy teens of today are like 14 and 13 barely tweenagers
@@jlall4467In Ireland, speaking as someone who just finished high school last year, edginess is still very much in vogue.
@@jlall4467as the world moves into being safe space hug fests, the edginess is found in conservatism. Time is odd, isn’t it?

Hell, I'm old enough to know that the right is now the same as the left of the 1970s.

Probably for not being a problem.
Both of my parents are Gen X, neither of them care about politics (not that I know of) nor do they care about which generation they belong to. They just... Want to live, which might explain why Gen Xers are overlooked as they barely do anything politically controversial.

Get used to that one lol, you never feel your age XD
I turned thirty last winther and all I can think. "No... I'm 25... stupid."
No i'm thirty. It happens bud... it happens...
How-ever, you get to see the 18 year olds driving around thinking they are super cool and super adult and you just think.
"Wow... Wow... Those are kids... Cringy kids... I can't believe I used to be like that."
Hold up tho, how is it supposed to change what's beautiful?
Saerain You will always find the same visuals to be attractive unless you develop a weird kink or your tastes change from exposure to something you didn’t know you liked.
If your relationship with someone is what you value, then you’ll want someone you can relate to, which will change with age.
But IMO being attracted to an 18 year old is fine no matter what age you are. It’s just a feeling anyway, and feelings aren’t good or bad. It’s what you do and say that matters.
The cure to finding teenagers attractive is get them to start talking. You'll find them absolutely revolting in a matter of minutes.

Hey, I'm the girl who drew that hentai parody of ''The 90s Sucked" www.newgrounds.com/art/view/bubblebunker/the-90-s-were-awesome
I completely understand what you mean by millennials kind of becoming their own boomers. I was a teenager in the 90s and actually I was quite leftist back then, but back then in my opinion liberals and leftist were the one's essentially doing the kind of things you and me are doing now. They were against the establishment and the status quo. That's not what were seeing now adays. I watched another one of your videos where you talked about how lefties and right wing essentially switched. Lefties use to be the counterculture until this shifted and now the right are kind of turning into the counterculture.
You can imagine being as old as me, I've seen this transformation happen literally with my own eyes. This transformation is only more apparent when you've seen a time period that wasn't the one we're living in right now.
Eyy, looked for the origin of that picture last time i was on this video some months ago and now i have it, nice.

A lot of good points, one problem however is the average guy does think a 18 year old is hot, studies have shown that the average woman thinks a man slightly older than them is most attractive. The average man thinks the most attractive women is between 18 and 21, this is the same for all male age groups.
I think the difference usually comes in when you have kids. It's not even so much whether you find them attractive, it's that older males without kids on a gut level see them as potential sexual partners (even if in your head you know that's not true), whereas when they start to look more like your actual kids you start seeing them more as children to be protected.
I'm 19 and work full time, no college or trade school
(Yet)
Onward brother, we will destroy the college requirements, bringing a new age of the Zoomers bois, crushing the boomers and millennials
I hope we'll be able to clean up the mess the melinials and boomers left us
With the collapse of the educated employment economy there is going to be a demand for uneducated workers once again. I may be a millennial, but I am right there with you guys on the front lines working a job without an education and earning more than my educated counterparts. We are the essential workers.
Dont follow in the footsteps of our parents together we can bring down this oppressive society simply by being non conformative
The revolution has begun, mates. Fuck colleges.
When i was your age. We played on Commodore 64's and Amiga 500's

Boulder Dash, Parallax, Head over Heels, Impossible Mission... good times
We all become conservative
over time. Not because it's "smart", but because we all ought to have values we hold dear. Someday someone will tell you to change that value because it's old and conservative. Even if those values are today progressive ones.
"Socialist Economy" is an oxymoron that always makes me laugh - if it wasn't so deadly and had wrecked my home country.
i see in the future that the younger generations will say ok millennial to an angry bitter old man

I'm happy to say that I never bought into "youth identity" and that I carry with me a determination to grow up, not old.
Getting old is being friends with your teenage spirit but realizing you're two different people. Just don't forget to check in every now and again.
Spoiled, entitled, millennial... Being a millennial, I missed this part of my upbringing. Being raised by Depression and WWII-era parents, it was different than with my peers.
If I may ask, how was it growing up with this generation of parents/family? I’m very curious to know how their attitude due to their environment at the time when they were young affected you when they were raising you. I hope I’m not being too bothersome. :)
@@vi0let831 Being born to people who had me late in their lives, and who had already retired, their incomes were fixed, and by extension mine as well, being dependent on them. There wasn't a lot of money to enjoy a lot of the same things my peers of the same age with younger parents enjoyed. So, there were no gaming systems, although my parents did do their best to buy our first computer. But, I can't say I was stunted by the lack of those sort of things. I would say my childhood was similar to that of a child who grew up in the 60s and 70s, if based on the toys I played with. I had all sorts of plastic army men and cowboys and indians (I'm sure those will be removed from shelves soon.) A red wagon, a sand pail and shovel. I watched Gumby and Pokey. Many of the toys were bought at garage sales or resale shops. My father who was born on a farm in rural Arkansas two years before the October crash and my mother raised on a farm in rural Michigan during the 40s and 50s by her maternal grandmother taught me a lot. A lot of stories about experiences that the parents of my peers could not equal. I was raised on home cooked meals and home grown vegetables from our garden and ate a lot of wild game that my father hunted or trapped. No TV dinners. My parents preserved and canned foods, like pickles, jams and jellies. I got a lot of clothes for Christmas. I would say my parents were old school in terms in discipline. If you got into mischief, it was far better for mother to handle it than father. lol
It’s ok to grow old. Being old means you’ve seen the goods and bads of the older ages, and can advise the new ones based on HISTORY.
It's called cliches for a reason. An why do we young folk think their silly its because those cliches were founded by senile old folk what do they know? See the conundrum that is age advising youth. Btw as I'm only 23 I've seen that those silly old cliches ARE F ING TRUE!!!
With age comes wisdom and understanding...as long as you are willing to learn from your mistakes, and the mistakes of others.
Speaking as someone with a Master's degree, don't just go to college because reasons. Make sure it's worth the cost and time.
Back in my day...
- Each generation to the new generation on why they had it harder
Not sure that's true anymore, at least on many things. I'm pushing 50, and I feel bad for kids today growing up having to worry about their online persona following them throughout their lives. I feel bad they have little to no privacy, can be tracked, traced, and monitored 24/7. I think the years of being able to disappear for hours at a time to get into shit and experiment with life are important and missing for them. Overall there just seems like there's way too much at risk for them to push boundaries and experiment with ideas and actions, my only hope being that since they're all in that position they backtrack a lot on the current culture and don't ruin each other over childhood indiscretions.
I feel bad for young adults struggling to afford rent, most not even having a choice but to live with at least one if not multiple roommates for an unreasonable amount of time. Not that anything was ever certain, but the lack of options for a secure future has to be damaging. In the 90's there was what was seen as a safe path to take to get by even if it meant never excelling. If you took a risk on your career those options were always there to fall back on. Now nothing feels like a safe bet. I get the worry and insecurity.
Conor Kerlin back in my day things werent so sad, and the religious right werent nearly as obnoxious as the modern socialists
Kenton Kruger I blame the two generations that CAN’T GET THE FUCK OVER THEMSELVES.
GenX is cool though.
I think, for me personally, a lot of it comes down to always being told "You're gonna do great things," "You're gonna change the world," and things like that. It wasn't even my parents that said that, it was my schools; my classes were taught throughout my education that we were gonna be the generation to really *change things,* to make the world better. Along with a lot of "chosen one" and "heroic journey" style literature focused around kids to young adolescence, I can see that having the effect of "I'm not an adult yet, I haven't changed the world."
I think it also adds to all these millenials running around doing their damndest to affect some sort of great change. After all, if we got old without having our own woodstock or something, like the Antifapolis "summer of love" thing, then we let down everyone who thought we were gonna really be something, and all that leaves us with is how we "killed everything."
At least, that's what I think about it. Good video, SFO, thanks for the upload and provoking thoughts.
You forgot the "Occupy Wall Street" movement. At least back then in NYC nobody died. They were just protesting, dwelling in their tents and shitting and pissing in the Central Park 😂 Then it fell apart due to divide and conquer tactics (mainly due to race - shocking, right!?!) Tim Pool talked about that in one of his videos because he was there. Maybe last year, I can't remember... But at least they got the address right!
Dualgunner honestly what I see is a great lack of purpose in millennials, they don’t have anything they feel they were made for, and I feel my generation will have this issue too, but seem to be more spiritual than millennials so might be able to find their purpose maybe, since spiritual people seem to be less likely to have this crisis of purpose, now sure purpose isn’t necessarily handed by a higher power but still
@@littlemisseevee2309 "Our great war is a spiritual war." Damn, good old Tyler Durden... That was true for Gen Xers and sure as hell it's true for Millennials now. Hopefully Zoomers can break the vicious circle...
In the 90's we fought the "pearl clutchers" trying to censor our freedom of speech and to do anything we want. Now, the Millennials are the "pearl clutchers".
Oh, I definitely remember the "You can be whatever you want" and "You'll do great things" mantras and, yes, it was mostly pushed by schools. I don't recall my parents pushing those slogans so much as simply hoping for my success. Look up "Splashdance - You Can Always Be Number One
" on UA-cam. Pretty much sums it up in song form. Yep, a Disney song.
I like edgy humor that not even some of my friends can tolerate, lol. How's that for being young?
I think the edginess comes from being jaded, going through depression, and being tired of having social justice, self righteous types demanding that you should live a certain way.
As a 20 year old Gen Z I feel so old, I remember VHS and the Wii and the pre recession housing boom (granted I was sub 7). It’s so awful knowing that a 13 year old was born in 2009!?!? Like what ?! 2009 babies are like 6 at MOST. Im a 2001 and now that’s ancient 😭😭
I can relate. We millenials as a whole are very regressed. I'm 31, and I still feel like I haven't gotten out of my early 20s. The prospect i might never achieve the level of adulthood and maturity and success that my boomer parents did at the same age is a daunting and terrifying one. To a certain extent, we will always be the "wasted" generation. Zoomers will have more power in their lives than we ever did or will, and it can be frightening to see the perspectives they have. But thats life.
I'm at the older end of GenZ, my parents being GenX. I've never had a bad relationship with them, even when i was on the far left i never had that feeling resenting of my parents.
I've come to see my generation as transitional the same way my parents were the transition between Boomers and Millennials. I grew up when games went from being lame to cool. Politics has shifted from the religious right being outraged all the time to Woke-scalds fulfilling that role. My peers scew between woke left and trad-con with people like me stuck confused in the middle.
Idk how Gen-alpha will turn out but I've a feeling it'll depend on what it is my generation is transitioning from/into.
Really interesting video dude. Sorry for the essay
Yeah, we are getting old, but we're not all getting feeble and demented. I, for one, welcome Gen Z to do it up bigger than we did.

They got old enough to change the world just in time for the millenials to get old enough to vote.
they arent loud and obnoxious but have middle child syndrome
I always felt old. I always told lame dad-jokes, so growing old and being called a Boomer by people is not so much of an insult, and more of a badge of honor to me. Certainly feels more dignified than being called a millenial.
As much of a meme it is to say this,
I think about death every single day and I sincerely fear the day it will come. Not emo or anything, it just really scares me.
Fear of mortality affects me too from time to time.

Staying young in spirit when aging is an admirable thing.
It's something of a tightrope, though. There are many tropes of the aging person who wishes to remain so young that it's kinda weird.
For some reason this video brought to mind that episode of The Simpsons when the old folks take over the town because they bothered to go out and vote and the youngsters didn't.
For all my annoyance at me getting older, I'm glad that I'm witnessing the shitshow that is the start of this decade. I am actually looking forward to what the future holds up for me.
P.S. : My favorite games are the classic RTS games ala Age of Mythology/Paraworld/Warcraft 3 etc
haha, not laughing at you dude but when I think of classic RTS it's Dune 2/RA/C&C/Warcraft, though that's the fun of breaking time up by gaming gens.

I'm on the younger side of millennials, I'm only 27, and honestly a lot of what you said resonates. We are getting old, there's another generation coming up behind us, and honestly I think they're going to be okay. I hope that enough of them learn from our mistakes and choose a better way of doing things.
I don't believe the kids are ok. Some of them may reject the millennials as the "neo Boomers", but unless Western culture takes a massive about turn to the Right, and the idol of moral relativism is torn down, things aren't going to get better.
I have been alive since 1984 and the biggest changes I have seen is one, the internet itself with personal computers and two the isolation of society with social media. Never have there been two more opposed technological revolutions so close to one another in human history. The personal computer and the internet brought great freedom and exposure to new ideas. It really felt like a new enlightenment era and being in high school around the late 90's when it was all going down was an amazing time to be a teenager. Then came the social media in the late 2000's.
With the advent of social media and smart phones the vast expansive new world of the internet was shrunk down to just the individual. After 2007, everything about the internet became about the individual and presenting the best qualities about that individual despite the facts of reality. Reality became sanitized of all uglyness and everyone started to live in their own sheltered bubbles that they created with their online persona. New ideas were no longer treated with intrigue but as attacks on the individuals perception of reality. As such, the individual retreated into an even smaller world than what existed before the internet. We have witnessed such an expansion and contraction in individual consciousness in the span of three decades that it is what most would call biblical.
This is entirely why the mid 90's to mid 2000's is treated with so much reverence. It was truly an age of enlightenment and through selfish desire and corporate greed we threw it all away and demanded it be taken away to defend our plastic persona's.
I love when people in their 30s feel old. lol You aint seen nothing yet kid. :D
In mid 30's and still get mistaken for a teenager, so yeah. You are right.
okay, ya point? we live in a time where things change too rapidly, can’t fault someone for feeling old at a young age when everything they once knew has been stripped away and all they have now is their nostalgia for what was
@@littlemisseevee2309 Poor old you. lol
I'm 27 and I feel old
@@Hewhowantstoknow I’m feeling old at 26!
That "Dublah" comic about the 90s sucking is backwards from my personal experience. I recently watched some of my favorite shows from the 90s (Full House, Star Trek: TNG, Roseanne, Hey Dude, et al.) and I was quite surprised at how overtly the programs were showing "progressive" or liberal ideology. Almost every show featured a male character dressed and acting like a woman. The racial component and making white people feel guilty was featured in most, as well (although the push for miscegenation wasn't so apparent, yet). Bullying was covered thoroughly and man o man was "multiculturalism" a hot topic back then. Now we are seeing the reality of that programming.
Exactly. The propaganda in the media has been there for decades. It's just more blatant now because the masses have gotten dumber and thus have to be beaten over the head with the messaging in order to get it. Thus to the older generations, today's media comes off as blatant messaging, while the media they grew up with seems "conservative" or "neutral", when it wasn't.
@@Dragblacker Amen! You nailed it!
I'm either the world's oldest zoomer or the youngest millennial. It's weird to see how I'm 27 and finding more in common with zoomers than I do with other millennials.
The exact dates are hazy for obvious reasons but '95/'97 is about where Z starts. I've heard 1995-2000 called Zillenials because of the weird mix between the traits.
I'm 23 and I can say for certain I'm Z but damn the younger ones get kinda weird.
One thing I think people forget is how much technological progress has changed the way generations relate to one another. For most of human history, progress was slow, and most skills you learned from your elders. But now, younger generations always have an edge on their parents when it comes to learning how to use the latest technology. This makes it easier for the young to look down on the old instead of respecting them.

Shut up. You don't get to say that for at least 10 years.
Must be somewhat insecure about it, given you made a whole video about it. I could care less about getting old, since some of my greatest heroes were or are old.
it's more like, this video is about people who are my age who cannot accept that they're no longer young, and how it's affecting their political views and actions.
@@ShortFatOtaku I'm your exact same age. Watch almost all your videos, but dude... I've been feeling old for the past ten years now.

Mom, what drugs did you slip in my Cheerios?
Deplorable Pirate Captain Gunbeard : Adventures of Pete and Pete is still amazing.
As a gen xer, I never felt the need to "step aside" because I never really cared enough to stand in the way in the first place. What were we talking about again?
The thing is : if every generation needs to go further into violence and amorality in order to be edgy, where does it end? Is there a point where it starts to hurt society or even the individuals on a psychological level?
The example of violence in video games is kind of nice to illustrate this point : some artists who worked on Mortal Kombat suffered symptoms close to PTSD due to working on modeling gore with such excruciating detail all day. And this never happened (and couldn't possibly have ever happened) with blood being represented by a few red cubes on the NES. So even though the problem appears to be "repeating", it keeps getting different, and usually more extreme, with every iteration.
I don't pretend to have the answer, and the very fact i asked this question probably means I am getting old too. But it truly believe it is a legitimate inquiry. Brushing the process aside by saying "it's just the past repeating" or "new generations always provoke the previous one and we shouldn't draw a line" is potentially dangerous, I think.

As to quote one of my favorite units in Fire Emblem Heroes towards the entitled millenials:
*KNOW YOUR PLACE.*
Ay, Black Knight!
I learned my place during my engineering apprenticeship. When you are 17 you will only ever be cheeky to a 50 year old sparky once 🤣🤣.
I'm only 21, but... there's a certain bit of getting older that I'm already feeling myself, and maybe that's just how fast our world and culture move. Still, in a way it's reassuring. I may not like the way things are going, from politics to the media to our culture to our cars (fucking boring-ass SUVs and Crossovers everywhere)... but the fact that I'm still here another year, and that each passing year is one where I've lived and learned... it's kind of heartening to watch myself get stronger and wiser about the world.
Granted, it does also feel a bit panicky, because I still have no clue what I want to be, no romantic relations, and I've only just started my first job week before last... but I've still got a long ways to go yet still.
