>> No.1560475

Personally, I blame gen X, they're the only honest Marxists besides female gen Y. Male gen Y and all gen Z are all either conservative, moderate aiming (which means disagreeing with socialism) or out right right wing.

Who do you think is sitting in HR hiring all the idiots (read women and minorities) that are making gen Y seem like poor workers with horrible retention? In fact there's nothing out of the ordinary with white male gen Y retention, they're just struggling to get a job because gen X doubles their entrance standards.

Baby boomers are selfish, sure. Aren't we all? Gen X are pathological and brain washed by Soviet funding of academia from back when they went to university. Gen X are where all this diversity and tolerance bullshit are coming from.

because they perceive that boomers have experienced a stability unlike any previous or following generation, because they see public pensions and social security, which they themselves may no longer make use of.

it's basically just jellyness

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/05/18/mtv-survey-88-of-millennials-oppose-race-based-affirmative-action/

The affirmative action question is the best representation because it's all about if you're willing to compromise all your principles about equality for hidden motives about crashing standards and ultimately targeting white males exclusively. It's the ultimate "are you a permissive cuck" question.

Gen X have about 20%-50% support, whereas gen Y is actually around 10% depending on if it's racial or sexual. In the end, it's actually just gen X that's doing this shit.

The thing is the media wants to paint every generation younger than gen X as even more left wing extremist, which is actually a way to pander and absolve gen X (the last people who care about the mainstream media against the new digital alternative media). It's basically all a ruse.

This is why people hate youth culture these days. They're not even reinventing the wheel, they're just taking their dad's old wheels and calling it innovation.

Well, you don't.

You basically consistently win arguments against them and mirror their accusations of bigotry with how they're the ones that are actually bigoted. Remind them that you didn't choose to be born white and male, make out as if affirmative action is the assumption that these special interest groups aren't capable of competing equally (soft bigotry of low expectations), call their insane and absurd policies "moral hazards" and lastly, mention the free market and how without fair and equal competition everyone suffers due to lower standards becoming the norm.

By doing this as a young person, you remind them that young people are simply not complicit with socialism as the media makes out. Again, the media does this so as to drive gen X further left assuming that if the kids are okay with it and only the kids are effected by it, it's somehow okay, right?

Yeah, being unemployed essentially because I'm a white male is just so hilarious. Of course the unequal employment standards for new graduates isn't a real issue, nope, just "12 year old drama."

I wouldn't want to work for you, you're clearly a narcissist that thinks anyone younger than them should absolutely beg to lick your balls, let alone expect a pay check.

That's really my point, your demeaning attitude reflects worse on you than it does on me. In the end there's a beauty in my message that everyone should be treated equally and there's a horror in your response that expecting equality makes me self entitled.

That being said, there's a certain intelligence threshold required to be self critical and you don't meet it. Instead, you'll probably die believing you have absolutely no personality flaws.

Again, I wouldn't want to work for you and I'd work for basically anyone.
