Perfect online fluff headline, imo. Illiterate right-wingers will take any opportunity to agree with something that mocks young people, while everyone else will be tempted to rage-click to find out how dumb the author is. The point is engagement and literally nothing else. They’re not even pretending to do journalism, or really even editorial content. The tabloids have become Buzzfeed for boomers. Three cheers for the attention economy making the internet and media in general shittier all the time.
