They are uneducated.

They think they know so much, in fact they will tell you that they are the most educated generation ever. The problem is, they do not actually know anything.

Their big problem right now is "I will never be able to afford a house!" This is said in a whinny high pitched wail that could cut glass.

Their delusion is that "the boomers" got all the cheap houses and now those greedy people will not just DIE and give them all their stuff.

When you start explaining exactly who a "boomer" was, the fact that they hit the job market just in time to see their FICA go from 3% to 12.6% the interest rates for buying those "cheap" houses and all the rest they do not believe it.

Add to that the boomers had the misfortune of seeing the concept of job security disappear into the past. You could get a high interest loan and buy a house only to discover that your job had just been transferred to another part of the country, moved out of the country, or just be permanently laid off.
