They didn’t , same class did it same class is doing it. Fuck this stupid fake generation shit
Haha ok this meme was good.
I’m one of the parents. Sorry for my generation. :)
We know it’s not all of you. Your generation also fought for civil rights, explored space, invented jogging I think.
We have shitheels in our generation too. And I fear they’ll become more and more prominent as we get older. I hope we’re able to dampen their greed and intolerance.
Mine just accused me of being gay via hearty use of homophobic slurs, because only women and gays cry, and i wasnt no woman.
It can be four things.
That’s a plot twist
Blaming parents for not doing a global eco-communism
*eco-socialism
Thats fair, a dictatorship of the proletariat ( a democracy where only workers and peasants(including unemployed and disabled folks who arent the bourgeoisie) have political representation) would be needed to address climate change
Dictatorship of the proletariat you described is just one version of socialism. Not the definition of latter.
Yes, and it is the one that has historically worked.
Instead of groiping about problems all the time, we should also be thankful for all the great things they invented, like microchips and food abundance.
Food abundance? Have you seen food prices lately?
Have you gone hungry lately, or are you struggling to shed a few kilos like most of us?
I don’t disagree but I’m going to let these people yell at you because they scare me. I can’t take anymore downvotes.
I cry every time…
Borlaug, Kilby and Noyce were all greatest generation. I don’t think they were parenting lemmy users.
True but employee #849004 at Intel keeps their system producing for us.
Are those things supposed to make up for the mass extinction event they caused?
I think their accomplishments weigh favorably in the balance
Not sure why you’re assuming the people smart enough to create these major inventions aren’t also smart enough to understand their generation as a whole helped barrel us towards a climate disaster
The weather is beautiful where I live. There’s plenty of room if you don’t mind having cows as neighbors.
I don’t think anything can possibly balance the massive, irreparable destruction that’s been done to this planet, but I guess that’s just me.
You should get out more. Most of the world is beautiful. Look for the good and you will find it!
Food abundance came as a result of the industrial revolution, which started waaay before our parents were born.
Supermarkets haven’t been around that long. The wide variety we satisfy our picky apppetites with is miraculous!
You think supermarkets were invented by boomers?
You admit, then, that food prices are made up to gouge us and have nothing to do with actual scarcity?
All product pricing is a complicated result of the economy. Thankfully scarcity is not a significant factor.
If scarcity is not the only factor, the prices are made up and we are being stolen from.
Prior to 1960 the concept was uncommon.
