      As millenials age they feel they know less about the world where previously they felt they understood it.

      This draws them to seeking answers to why.

      Establishment ghoul media gives them answers to why.

      Aging millenials become captured by their influence as the only source explaining the things they feel confused about now.

      Same thing happened to gen x, and boomers, and it'll happen to zoomers eventually too. Each gen, captured as they age out, it's how the media grabs more and more of them as people age.

        Wanting to explain the world through mainstream media.

        There's your problem.

        Why are we listening to "business insider" of all things??
