Yup, the smartest, most profound, strongest, bravest, most active. A standard set by AOC herself.

Protest government? HA! They’re literally begging for AS MUCH GOVERNMENT as they can possibly shell out.

Many of the founders of this country were in their 20s when they rebelled against the Crown.

They aren’t protesting anything - they are simply asking for MORE government.

Not trying to start a religious argument, but if a Young Earth Creationist told AOC that the world began 5000 years ago, she would laugh — because she thinks the world began the day she was born.

Forget the 60’s, there was a large young protest generation in the 1760’s. And they accomplished something.

Didn’t happen because she wasn’t there. The Millennial Mantra.

And it’s fair to say the youth of the ‘60s, 1860’s, were active as well.

"...suggesting millennials and Generation Z are better "informed" and more well-versed in history than past generations — and, apparently forgetting about the turbulent '60s, are the first "willing to go to the streets" and challenge their government."
Of course. I wonder how many of these wunderkind know Locke, Livy, or Montesquieu?
The generation that did know "took to the streets" over 240 years ago, weren't wearing masks, and knew which bathrooms to use.

My daughter was born in 1991 and she is not 1/10,000 this stupid.

Not surprising to hear such drivel from Occasionally Coherent. Most of her generation believe that all history began in about 1986. What happened before then has been concocted in a movie studio or is pure fiction.

I wonder if she should be reminded of the anti Civil War draft riots in New York City circa 1863 (that were very anti black in nature to boot)?
