Boomers are grandparents. You are looking to blame Gen x and millennials.

Haidt turns 60 this year

So born in 1963...cusp boomer but definitely a boomer.

That was my point.

Did you actually read his article?

It was not anti youth but citing the obvious …

Mother of 15 yo who has been poisoned by social media victim culture and gender identity confusion …

I'm still trying to decide if this is a brilliant, intentional strategy by the woke elite, or just a comedic final act in the decline of the West.

I question this entire premise. White men still hold the levers of power in almost every university and media company, and it is hard to believe that anyone understands otherwise.

Your premise, on the other hand...

Levers of power? SMH

I am sorry but the older/conservative generation is all into the victimhood drama— ahhh censored! Ahh Deep state!! Ahh… FBI persecution!!! Ahh, no history if it makes white children uncomfortable!

If there’s is an epidemic of “victimhood” is not limited to Gen Z

I’m a Gen X latchkey kid who had to pay my dues and fulfill so many stupid rules because I was being fed a line. I thin it’s awesome that these kids don’t play with fools and advocate for themselves.

Absolutely agree! Native-born older white males are the biggest snowflakes in the US. They completely fall apart when they have to compete for anything just like the rest of us (non older white men). They’re a generation of whiners.

Evidence?

Their claims to have invented everything in the modern world, for one. They take credit for everything- electricity, radio, tv, phones, the internet, medical science, airplanes, cars, yada yada yada. They claim to have invented everything.

So, umm, about that...

Absolutely 1000%.

Although I don’t think it is gen z only, but pretty much everyone.

I know he likes to style himself as just a sensible human being but I too think he is a right-winger.

Right of whom, Lenin? You really need to learn more about him and his history if you think he's a righty.

NP. I agree with the author and with you, PP.

I feel people are resisting the article’s main points because they do not want to accept them; they wish it were not so.

But it is.

In the 1970s and 1980s, as a GenXer, I never feared being gunned down by one of my classmates in my own school.

Fight, GenZ! I am on your side.
