Jennifer, I think the entire “millennials are entitled, lazy, spoiled, etc.” narrative has been crafted by the media and conservatives in an attempt to keep your generation depressed, angry and apathetic to excercising their political power.

You are a good guy Lon Shapiro. I don’t take back my original comment, because my word vomit was mostly just directed at “people who blame millennials for things,” and I like that it exists out in the ether as my response to that. I snapped. I had a moment. It’s over now. You’re obviously not who I should have directed it at, and I apologize if you felt attacked in any way by my depressed, angry, and slightly apathetic comment. I pointed out to others that I was not trying to start anything.

I think the thing that got to me, is that I have seen you say things like “millennials need to do [xyz things],” mostly about voting. If I turn down the little voice in my head dialed up to 11 that’s shouting “DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO”, then I agree with you, millennials need to turn out to vote. We don’t do that in large numbers. I just think it’s an easy jump from there to say, “Well, if we get president Trump, it’s your fault millennials!” Which is a thought I rage against.
