I'm a millennial, ask me anything.
Self | July 29, 2019 | Ulmius

Posted on 07/29/2019 10:32:12 AM PDT by Ulmius

After some thought on the generation gap appearing in today's society, I have decided to reach out to some of you to get a wider dialogue. Here are some basics about me:

- 24 years old (been a Free Republic member since 2014)

- served in the regular Army for five years (Arabic linguist), I've been out for a year

- one more semester of a bachelors' degree in international relations, plan to attend grad school for linguistics in spring, have a few computer science online certificates

- working for now as a rent-a-cop for $12/hr part-time, I live with my father

- I'd like to do some linguistics-related work, interested in Middle Eastern and Caucasian languages specifically. I may want to get into a consultancy role related to data science

- I'd describe myself as a right-leaning nationalist, and not as much a libertarian anymore. Socially, I am more on the conservative side

Can't wait to see what y'all have to talk about, thanks.

I’d say God Bless You, thank you for your service, good luck in your future endeavors, and I wish that most young people were like you.

Unfortunately they are not. Far from it.

Mainstream is, doesn’t take long to see why when you see the NWO doing their thing in the record industry. It’s the independent and underground scenes where substance and meaning are still being explored. I do think it’s funny in an endearing way when black trap stars are exploring Nashville country music, it’s awesome

#A..What countries and/or territories do you consider worthy of becoming our 51st State? If not ‘worthy’ then likely to become a part of our nation?

I sense that we are shopping around to expand our ‘empire’.
I suspect it may be Puerto Rico, but hope not, due to high Lib. corruption.

#B..Do you agree with me that we need a return to the draft?

Needless to say (but I say it anyway) There is no right or wrong answer.

Do you have any career plans after Starbucks?

(Just kidding, sounds like you’re off to a good start)

Seriously...

Do your planning and career training paths set you on a course to financial and personal freedom and independence? Do your friends’?

We’ve all heard the Mom’s basement trope, and while my life hasn’t always worked out the easiest, I’ve been out and on my own (in TX) since I learned to code, back in college, when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

It seems like a lot of my younger acquaintances have accepted and gotten used to the concept of living a life of reduced wealth and prosperity compared to previous generations. Do you think that’s the case? Do you think there’s anything to be done about it (personally, or as a generation)?

Just wondering...

Up is equal to the amplitude, but in the opposite direction of the delineation of down, and is used in such phrases as “Go piss up a rope, Up your nose, and Your all hosed up Sir”.

How do you avoid suicide at the non-stop playing of Ed Sheeran’s ‘love with your body’ song?

Strauss/Howe’s four generation theory of history

New to me ... hmm, 1775, 1860, 1940 ... is 2020 the next crisis?

Thanks for giving me a new research topic

1) we are not the heroes. We are the janitors until a better age comes

2) our struggle will be in the future, when social protections fail and demographic changes rear their ugly heads. Then we will help to answer whether a free society can exist in an age of dystopian technology and mass indoctrination

Soccer is gay, the memes surrounding certain countries’ domination of others in the matches are quite entertaining. US soccers pretty gay, just look at our women’s team
