Go and see your doctor and get some anti depressant meds. Or pay and see a councillor.
Do something but stop using CUK as some kind of depressive rant crutch. -
Pooper is some kind of manic, on one hand wasted his pension on crypto crap and then ranting about stock market crash and death of the US dollar.
He seriously needs help, the guy in a mentalist.Comment

Meh. Switched off when he got to “what have Millennials had? Video games, schedules, etc”. As if there’s never been any wars of troubles since 1980. One sided.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostComment

How do you know it's one sided if you only watch one part?Originally posted by meridian View PostMeh. Switched off when he got to “what have Millennial s had? Video games, schedules, etc”. As if there’s never been any wars of troubles since 1980. One sided.
He's not criticising any one generation. He's trying to answer the question and attach labels that define the cause & effect relationships between those generations. Quite powerful.
Had you got to the end, the take home message is Life is what you make it. Make sure you take that energy from the younger you to the older you cause there's always going to be the cycle of tough / good times."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".

Perhaps you need to hone your critical thinking skills.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostHow do you know it's one sided if you only watch one part?

When he goes through what each generation has “put up with” but deliberately only puts up things like social media etc for one generation and skips any issues, then he’s falsifying his thesis.
If his message is what you claim, he doesn’t need to bash one group unnecessarily to make it.
(And you’re saying “trying to answer the question”, not “is the question a valid one to start with”...)Comment

You really need to watch the reminder, he's not blaming anyone as you assume.
Milennials have not had to endure tough times but that does not mean they're at fault."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
