Comment on There's a 0% chance the tiktok generation avoids using nukes on itself.
youare_acooldude@sh.itjust.works 7 hours agoIt’s not that they’re younger than me. Re-read my post.
i did.
its about generations.
i hated how the “old guard” treated my generation as a youngings and my ways.
now i am myself the old guard and i hate all my fellow same age fucks who do the same shit.
Like dont get me wrong. Social media in its current hyper corporate form is ass. But thats not an generational issue???
its about generations.
Almost. See what other words your missing.
There’s a 0% chance the tiktok generation avoids using nukes on itself.
As much as we hate the ‘old guard’ and as much damage as they continue to do to the world, in a way they are protecting us.
There is no way the tiktok/instagram/twitter generation has enough foresight and appreciation for human life to avoid pushing the nuclear button when they’re in control.
Can you point out the parts that aren’t about generations? Because the first paragraph is a single sentence about “the Tok Tok generation”, the second paragraph is a single sentence about the “old guard” generation, and the last paragraph is, well, a single sentence about the “Tik Tok / Instagram / Twitter generation”.
You’re correct, there are in fact other words in your post besides “generation”, but all three sentences are literally only about how the next generation is too XYZ compared to the previous one.
Telling people to read your post again while giving zero additional context doesn’t make everyone else go, “wow that guy is so dumb for not understanding the clearly written post! OP is smart and cool!” it just kind of proves to everyone that you’re talking out of your ass and can’t explain your position.
For bonus points, i dont think OP is understanding that time flows linearly and at some point they will become the ‘old guard’ themselves, thus completing the cycle of ‘generation hate/love’
(Im aware that this is the point you were making. Im just restating it because its a solid point that got a response of ‘lol are you blind’)
People have always sucked, people have always not sucked. Maturing should be realizing that it sucks to hate others blindly.
You do not mature automatically as you age. Life experiences and growth are what mature you. Some people have too much maturing at a young age. Some people have not enough at an older age.
Anyway this got a bit ‘yelling into the void’ I love all of you, drink water.
please explain it to me in simple terms daddy.
like whats so much worse with the current kids compared to ourself back then?
seriously, without snark please.
i am capable to admit that i know where your feelings are coming from. i feel the same sometimes. but is really about the time you were born in?
Right? No shit.
I’ll say it out loud, man I fucking hate working with these kids that are just entering the job market. They are lazy, OMFG are they lazy, don’t pay attention to a goddamn thing going on around them, nearly everything that comes out of their mouths is complete bullshit, hell some of it isn’t even real words.

I can’t even begin to imagine what it was like putting up with me in my first few jobs. I’m certain that I was completely full of shit, spoke half in slang, tried like hell never to lift anything heavy, vanished when my help was needed. I was a fucking kid, just like the kids today. Everybody sucks at that age because everyone is still figuring shit out, realizing how little school prepared us for any damn thing, and literally still figuring out who they are.
Well, as one of the old fucks, now, I too bitch about the kids some, but I try at least to remember that they are just like us at that age, and I try to remind the other old fucks that they were too
The new slang is wack though.
