Gen X: they forgot us again
It’s worse for us Gen-Xers. We remember living as adults in the time before it all went from kinda shitty to the diarrhea apocalypse.
Yep, things looked positive for a short while after the end of the cold war and the Internet became widespread when we entered the workforce. The advancement of the human race only seemed a matter of time.
But our Boomer parents weren’t willing to let anyone else have a bright future, keeping us away from any real power while driving exploitation of nature and people to the max to fill their bank accounts.
Lol. The worst thing that can happen is war. I will be very grateful if I don’t have to endure it in my lifetime.
But burgerstanis surrounded by two oceans are complaining about burgers and gas while sowing death and conflict around the world.
Time to stop feeding the empire.
It’s 2 pandemies. People like to forget H1N1… & at least 4 recessions since the 90s… & the rise of Neo-Faschism should definetly be there as well.

Yep. We went from the cold war to more hopeful times just to fall into despair even worse than before.
Yeah, as a fresh 44 year old, I’d really love to have a boring decade where nothing much happens. Just a bit of a breather before the inevitable climate wars. I’ve lived through so many ‘once in a lifetime’ events, it’s not even funny.

Don’t forget the return of fascism 😮💨
Purely as an excuse to post this video, Fascism never really went away… https://youtu.be/OLkPwxcIji0
Every 100 years there will be a rise of facist, and only the Avatar can stop them.
Which one? The last airbender, one of those 10 feet tall blue guys with the magical ponytails, or someone else?

Like we can afford to smoke.
And super el ninos, multiple 21st century wars, and watching technology advanced so fast it devolved.
Gen X had Reagan and LA Riots and the .com bubble burst and Gulf War and Waco and Columbine in addition.
We are ready to die, thank you I must be going. Sorry
You forgot the Cold War.
Soon it will be 3 financial recessions…
