Til the end of time, apparently

So sorry for identifying "millennials" failure to turn out as part of the problem--was shocked to see it in my extended family. if you think that's (your) lot in life, why not try something different? No one can afford to stand on the sidelines now. It is now at a tipping point.

You’re missing the point. Our lot in life is to be blamed for things we didn’t do. We voted at the same or higher rate as prior generations at the same age. But millennials get blamed for everything that happens. We killed all sorts of industries! We sat out the election! (None of it is true.)

OK I have never heard you killed any industries, or heard an entire generation blamed for large economic changes. No one has that kind of power, generations are not monolithic.

Oh, haha, it was a huge thing in past years. Here’s an example list (although to be clear the article itself is disagreeing with the take because you are of course correct, generations are not monolithic). www.cbinsights.com/research/mil...

Blue Sky needs bookmarks.

I will have to wait to read this until later this evening after I finish daily tasks.

Thanks for taking the time!

Thank you, I learned a lot and got to talk to new people with differing viewpoints!

Also (and this was not you) lots of people think “millennial” means “young person.” Thats why my initial reply *was* snarky (sorry), because I thought you were, like so many others, looking at 20 year olds and calling them millennials.

OK. Makes sense; while the 30+ yo are involved with those 20 and under in their jobs, I am not. However, it makes more sense to me that truly young people might skip an election, even if I never do. I left Twitter after 10+ yrs to come here for knowledge and information

One thing's for sure: I won't be referring to anyone as "millennial" again.

I mean this sincerely, and not sneakily: your personal experience with a few people in your family is not data. Your experience is not universal. Data disproves what you’re arguing.

Fine, I am not arguing, I am telling my experience, with a wide diverse group of people, all over 30. Not arguing I have any "data", asking questions and encouraging discussion, but the little quick responses were simply not responsive and apparently I did not know the code.
