[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think this is a real dynamic?

Young adults (18-23) with a sense of being wronged. They’re exhausted parents who did everything they could.

Lots of resentment bubbling over. [/quote]

Are you a social scientist researcher who has studied this question? Did you read this somewhere? Or are you just spouting some random observations based on a handful of young people in your orbit? [/quote]

OP here. Friends and I were discussing attitudes of our young adult children. One of them mentioned there was a trend of “apology fantasy” filmmaking by younger directors. “Everything, Everywhere All at Once” being a recent example. It was just a conversation. I don’t quite understand the hostility in your question— are you unwell? Did the question strike a nerve? Are you going to have an episode?[/quote]

Oh man, I'm not PP but this is really rude and it makes it seem like you aren't asking in good faith. [/quote]

I did. I was responding to a$&hat pp in the way she spoke to me. [/quote]

Also a totally new poster. Wow, OP, that question was not rude, but you were. Twice.

(Are you the poster who refers to everyone as "drama llamas" by any chance?)

[/quote]

No, I have never used that term. It sounds sophomoric.

If you don’t understand that I was attacked, I can’t help you with your reading comprehension. [/quote]

Wow. You were not “attacked.” Drop the persecution complex. It’s not a good look.[/quote]
