No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I think you're absolutely wrong (anecdote incoming after my question), but let's assume for a second that you're correct. Why were the millennials as children blamed when they're not at trophy shops buying their own trophies?
Anecdote, as promised: I grew up in a very small, very conservative town. They love Supply Side Jesus and the Prosperity Gospel, and they hate the welfare queens that they were sure stole every dime of their tax money. In the 90s they got way into making sure THEIR kid got trophies while simultaneously complaining that all kids got trophies.
I don't believe the millennials, who were children in the 90s, bought their own trophies. I don't believe it was only progressives thinking their children were snowflakes. I also don't think you'll care because it doesn't square with your beliefs and you don't seem like the kind of person that's intelligent enough to process any new information that isn't about Jesus getting tougher on crime.
I think it was mostly otherwise Gen x over compensating for the bullshit their parents pulled. I very much doubt you are going to find too many conservative families with that experience.
That's ok, you're allowed to doubt reality. That's the cool thing about the real world. You can doubt it all you like. It's still real no matter what you believe.
