    Absolutely non-radical, since they got the last scraps that American capitalism had to offer to workers. Millennials got shafted by 2008 either directly or since then (since things haven't actually recovered) and can see directly through all the BS.

    genx-millenial cusp here. statistically speaking, genX are all nihilistic shit libs with limited critical insights to U.S. political economy or its relation to mass media. they are in the home stretch for retirement, and wouldn't you know it... neoliberal capitalism is probably going to stick it to them too!

    i've met a handful of individuals that aren't useless, but most have internalized anti-leftist propaganda and would instinctively block a socialist project if someone in a bespoke suit told them it would threaten their home's value.

    probably all the cool genx people are like homeless and/or in prison.

      I concur. At least among those that I work with or have worked with. Too many chasing the crumbs of the boomers and trying not to rock the boat too hard to protect their middle class lifestyles. I'm a cusp myself and actually own a very shitty house on shit land and kind of get it.
