I Was A Millennial Once

"The Climate Crisis? It’s Capitalism, Stupid " So states Benjamin Fong - Millennial in New York Times*

Millennials  (born between 1982 and 2000) are an extremely large chunk of American demography, comprising over 80,000,000 younger people and 25 percent of the  population. Such a large voting block has been successfully courted by the Left. President Trump was able to persuade only 37 percent of the youth vote - mainly white males without college degrees - the bane of Liberals, but maybe the last hope of civilized Americana. 

According to a recent study by the  Victims of Communism Memorial, half of all Millennials would rather live in a communist or socialist country and over 20 percent have a favorable view of Joseph Stalin. 

Can anyone doubt the devastating influence of public school and college philosophies that have gone out of the way to purge any kind mention of  traditional America, God, the Bible, or God forbid, praying around an American flagpole? The Democrat  lady-dominated teaching associations long ago killed off Dead White Men, and so, next in line has been the attempted elimination of the Almighty. I try to forget all those  crooked National Democrat Presidential conventions, but one most memorable has to be when the Dems officially denounced God having any representation in their political platforms in the original drafts. Dem reps were so embarrassed that later, in 2012, they called for a vote to include God, which despite resounding boos from the crowd, finally OK'd Him. Over 10 percent of Democrat delegates are teachers, and its not hard to induce that they were among those booing the recognition of  God - something they have been successfully doing for 3 generations of students.

If Millennials have learned anything from public schooling and universities as well as their heroes like Colbert, Kimmel, and Saturday Night Live, it has been to do something quite ungodly, ie., to covet their  neighbor's goods, the Left's chief tool to proselytize new members. Communism and Socialism thrive on lusting after your neighbor's money and property. 

At the time I was a millennial, there was little thought of demanding the government to confiscate other people's money to satisfy my own "needs." Rich folks like Carnegie, Rockefeller, Firestone, and Ford were not seen as just Privileged White Men but rather Champions of Industry who supplied jobs and wealth to the country. We did not go into humongous debt to complete college, and we were not incentivized to stay at home until the age of  26 so not to lose health insurance. There was no Saint Bernard to rescue us from our temporary lack of the finer things in life, but there is now a Saint Bernard Sanders to help young and old disobey that ancient rule of "Thou shalt not covet they neighbor's goods."  I was making a meager 85 cents an hour as a short order cook for a time, which was the equivalent of about six dollars in today's money. It was far from a so called Living Wage (whatever that is), but we believed that we would eventually progress to better things later in life.

How different it is today where Millennials have been lured by the Pied Piper of Vermont, Saint Bernard Sanders, who has been able to dupe a large number of our future leaders to, indeed, covet other people's money and property in order to get their Fair Share (whatever that is). Its as if the Brooklyn born Jewish Sanders never studied any of the Ten Commandments, which may be so, since he is an avowed atheist, although he likes Pope Benedict, so he says.

Baby Boomers have contributed to the delinquency of the younger generation by spoiling them, sparing them discipline, and enrolling them in the Public Fool System. It has been college level baby boomer administrators who have caved to such things as BLM protests, demands of coeds to have college Safe Places, Therapeutic Coloring Book sessions, Crying Circles in streets, Screamfests and any number of psychobabble treatments to alleviate the psychosis experienced since Donald J. Trump was elected President. They have been also schooled to hate white people, even if they themselves are white.

 Millennials throughout history have all undergone some sort of identity crisis, where we have all tried hard to find our place in life, our individuality, our niche. Sadly, many Millennials who are wooed by socialism, thus far, have only have tattoos, Iphones, and social justicing to give them a self conscious place in Western Culture. For guidance, they can also look toward Antifa,  Saturday Night Live, CNN, and the whole host of late night comedy clowns to show them the way. The Dems have done well to encourage those in their twenties to thirties to despise their own self privileged race, and manhood, specifically. 

Big Sports and major corporations have been pushing the racial self loathing for years - hoping to tap into the Millennials' psyche, and wallet by catering to their biased Social Justice instincts. Big Sports, including major league companies and sports broadcasting have been caught up in the social justice cause for years, even as Rush mentioned  recently, by striving to exalt minority players like Kaepernick and double minority Michael Sam to show how non bigoted they are - not knowing that they have  become quite prejudicial in doing so. Big Sports and Corporations think that by featuring a higher percentage of  African American players, they are fulfilling a divine mission - forgetting that white people like to watch people like themselves play, just as black people like to see their race represented.Yes, I said it.  Big Sports has fired Jimmy the Greek,  Hank Williams, Dennis Miller, and Rush Limbaugh for the smallest infractions, yet people like Lebron James and Jmele Hill and many others can say the most incendiary, comments and  taking a knee without much repercussion, despite professional league "rules" of conduct, on and off the field. What a joke.

Corporate advertising is so anxious to get Millennial  money that there is scarcely a commercial that does not  have a person of color representing the company on TV, radio, movies,newspapers. This happens even to the extreme with the  deep, deep voiced   Dennis Haysbert superimposed over the voice of a 9 year old girl in one of many similar Allstate commercials. Millennials (not all) are so socially just that they either ignore all the big Democratic city savagery of black on black crime, or they simply blame Dead White Men or the Confederate Flag, or virtually anything that comes to their racist minds to perpetuate exaggerated claims of racism. Its a win win for  minorities who can go to such extremes to make the majority angry, so that  minorities, in turn, can shout RACISM! and, "See how angry they are at us. Must be racism."

The Democrat Party is beyond shame, as are their cohorts in academia and the media. Not that conservatives are perfect, but if a Republican steals a cookie, the media equates that with the most damnable of sins, but when Democrats burn down a cookie factory, its not worth mentioning. Its all devised to twist Millennial minds into voting for more Dem socialism and appreciating more socially just football games (whatever that is).

If the Left can continue to exaggerate and promote accusations of racism, they win a large demo of  African Americans as well as "Social Justice Freedom Fighters" - Millennials. If only either group could understand how they are being used by rich, white, hateful, liberal Democrats.

[a fool in paradise]

Millennial is a made up designation by those who think that the year 2000 has some kind of special powers. the parents of millennials are from different generations and do not represent one block or birth rise/drop. It’s numeric superstitious mumbo jumbo.

[Mr. Blond]

Jimmy The Greek did nothing wrong.

I was a whipper-snapper once.

[boop]

"I was a whipper-snapper once."

So was I, a liberal bleeding heart.

I stayed that way until I was 25 or so, then I started thinking for myself.

I only wish that I was exposed to conservatism earlier, but alas, it just wasn't shown in the media or in school at the time.

Gotta love ol' Churchill.

You MUST be liberal when young,because when you find out how the world *really* works, you truly understand what a bunch of poppycock you fell for.

I hope and pray that millennials go through a similar transformation as I did.

I was lucky.

Started to watch Firing Line in middle school (becuz Buckley’s accent was so weird).

[boop]

Gotta love Buckley!

Very few liberals could keep up with him.

I give props to the ones that did.

One was Noam Chomsky.

He was a buffoon, but he had the chops to go head to head.

I thought Hugh Hefner did a good job, but it seemed a "draw" at the end.

Buckley wouldn't give in on the issues of infidelity and pre-marital sex.

Hefner wouldn't yield, even though as it turns out Buckley was correct in the long run.

As we see the results today.
