Do you ever feel like everyone around you who is not your age range,  apart from the few dummies who quote every google article they see as  gospel, blames you for every little problem that comes to their tiny  brains? Well, then you must be a millennial. Everyday we hear about the  negative effects of ageism from various political candidates, but this  is mostly referring to senior citizens, and even that would be  non-existent were it not for the current pandemic, and subsequent  election seasons. However, when it comes to millennials, its pretty much  open season. Over the last eight years, that's spanning one rabidly  authoritarian administration, and one that was only moderately  authoritarian, I have been blamed for every problem on the ballot from  the rising cost of health care, to the fact that Jim Joe Bob lost his  pig farm...You know, the ones that my ancestors from Africa built. Poor  Jim Joe Bob. Woe unto us all if such a scholar and a gentleman cannot  ritualistically abuse animals on his land that slaves once tilled!  Meanwhile, self-proclaimed environmentalist are blaming coronavirus on  meat eaters because the occasional chicken breast I eat is what is going  to kill us all, not the fact that neither democrats, nor republicans have pledged to stop the negative business practices that lead to pandemics. "No, it's that asshole in Silicon  Valley eating chicken dinner. He's the real problem!" But climate  change, which is very real, is not the only issue that American is  blaming millennials for. Though we've only been around for about thirty  five years, and have the lowest amount of income among any active work  force, and not for lack of training, apparently we were responsible for  the Capitol Riots, racial equality protests, "rewriting" (this means  being honest when you make a mistake, and try to correct it in "expert"  speak) history, get freedom of speech censored, twitter, and, of course,  fidget spinners, some crap toy that boomers probably made. Why is  everything bad always automatically blamed on us? Did our parents and  leaders just decide one day that they were going to completely shirk all  responsibility for their destructive actions, and decide to blame it  all on us. Yes, that is exactly what has happened. We all know, though  some of us like to pretend we don't, that a lack of voter enthusiasm for  democrats in 2016 should not be blamed on the voters, but on a society  that has clearly decided to give their children the middle finger. No  matter how much they love to boast about responsibility, prior  generations have been nothing but irresponsible with the planet they  blame us for destroying. Industrial expansion, which most serious  climate scientists blame for the continuing degradation of the planet,  was fostered during the industrial revolution, which began in 1760, a  far cry from millennials, who would not even begin to be born for about  another 220 years. Indeed, before I started being beaten over the head  with article after article written by some wealthy snob in a college  campus cafe about how horrible of a person I am, I did not even view humanity as anything  more than one big generation of nonsense. All this talk of being unique  or special because the group you belong to are all the same age is just  plain stupid. I don't hang out with millennials all day talking crap  about boomers. So, why is the media, which is filled with boomers, and  represents the opinions of boomers, blaming my generation, a broken down  bunch of gig workers without a shot at social security, bothering us  for? Simple, they're passing the buck. Image credit goes to Andre Hunter. Sound credit goes to bensound.com
