Before we all dump on and write off this generation (of which I am not a part) we need to remember our airmen, sailors, soldiers and marines leaning into our enemies as we speak.
I am willing to bet they do not suffer from an over inflated sense of self and lack of humility. They are the next generation of leaders. The rest will be mugged by reality at some point. The USA isn’t finished by a long shot.
Actually this generation is better than mine in many respects, I don’t see massive student participation in anti-war rallies. It’s the blue hairs from the sixties.
