Every generation has been really stupid except Gen X who seemed to be conservative right off the bat. Boomers were just as bad as millennial. I hope it will be a phase for them.
This from the generation that needs a safe space, play doh, coloring books, and puppy dogs?
If they’re okay with Stalin today, there is a too good a chance they’ll be alright with Hitler tomorrow.
Morally vacant zombies.
I know a millenial who is socialist leaning commie. Complete ignorance of history.
How many get that today’s government schools are teaching grade schoolers the advantages of socialism and the disadvantages of American values and freedom?
It is also never too late to teach English.
Yes.
Talk to them about Vlad. Lenin, not John Lennon.
Have them do a book report on a few chapters from “The Archepelagio” by Alexander Solzhenitsyn.

Show them some of the old SCTV skits that really nailed Soviet communism.
I loved that show.
The beauty of America is- they are free to go
North Korea if they want hi octane communism
Cuba or Venezuela if they want better weather
Or on “ The Aquariums of Pyongyang”
More good reading about the adventures of living under Stalinism
That’s because all they have been taught is a giant overly simplistic false dichotomy. Capitalism is the progenitor of all things cruel and bad and so it’s rival or competing view - socialism must be the solution as it encapsulates all things kind and good; and it is scientific. That’s about the depth of the average thinking man or woman in the USA of the millennial variety; or don’t think at all as political correctness has all the answers - no need for thinking or speaking.
Boomers bad? I grew up very poor in Okla, had no Heat or AC until 1967, and summers are in the 100s. Winters are freezing cold. We never had enough food or money. Dad drove old cars. I paid my own way through college, grad in 4 years with double major. Husband grad from college in 4 years, chemical engineer, worked ass off for forty plus years at same job. Raised three great kids, paid their way through college. Bought house, never missed payments, never filed bankruptcy. Mowed our own lawn, cooked our own meals MOST of the time, cleaned our own house even windows. Painted our house inside and out. We do our own repairs.
So why ragging Boomers? Everyone we know did pretty much same as us.
The beauty of America is- they are free to go
North Korea if they want hi octane communism
Cuba or Venezuela if they want better weather
EXTREMELY well put!!!
That's why the East Germans built a wall to keep people in, and Trump has to build a wall to keep people out.
Morons.
Not worth your time to even bother discussing some things with certain people at this site. :-)
