      Pretty much. These are the same college kids who like to tell me what should be offensive to me as a Latino. They don’t realize that them jumping in to defend me against invisible discrimination, is their own form of white supremacy and colonialist attitude. “this brown person should be offended at that man wearing a sombrero, and only I a young educated white kid can defend him!”

      I’ve been saying it for years. Zoomers are dumb. We have statistics to prove it. For years, people have been saying “oh gen z is so accepting, so progressive”. Yeah but that doesn’t matter because they’re stupid and stupid = easily manipulated.

        Nah. No dumber than previous generations. Fuck, man, do you remember the internet in the 2000s and 2010s? Millennials and Gen X weren’t any brighter. And the Boomers had lead poisoning.

          Idk. Boomers told millenials not to believe everything we see on TV.

          Millenials were quick to get skeptical about everything and applied that logic to the internet as well.

          However boomers appear to be believing everything they see on social media / news broadcasts.

          And Gen Z appears to believe everything they see on TikTok.
