This must be the most hated generation of all time.

I thought Boomer hate was a bit over the top until the last few years when, effortlessly, Millenials surpassed the Boomers in general stupidity, self-aborbdness, selfishness, shocking sense of self-entitlement, and generally being annoying.

How the fuck did these fuckers end up like this?

I cannot for the life of me undertand the way they think.

I am not like some old person complaining about the young, which is a given for much of history. Most old people complain about the young with an implicit understanding that they are old in their ways and that the young are just rebelling, which they themselves did in their youth.

But the super fucking annoying thing with the rebellion of these Millenial A-holes is that they are rebelling by...standing WITH The Establishment? WHAT THE FLYING FUCK?

In all of history, the young always sought to stick it to the man. They always fought authority or mocked it.

But these fucking Millenials are...with the authority? What the fuck? Why would you push for everything that the Establishment stands for?

There must be some phenomenon here that I don't understand on why, for the first time in history, the young don't fight the Establishment, but fights those who fights the Establishment. The young have become bootlickers and lapdogs of the Establishment.

Can somebody explain how the Millenials became this way?

In your worldview, is it even possible for a person to be superior over another?

Absolutely. But superior how? Morally superior? Physically superior? Intellectually superior? All of that at the same time?

And who's superior between the one going under and the other? What guarantee there is in the end, that the technically inferior in all aspects isn't going to actually be the one bringing down the supposedly superior? Because the so called superior just didn't see it coming, because he just underestimated the threat for instance, too sure of himself. It's a classic. Or just because the other guy actually focused only on the objective, and didn't bring honor, pride, or whatever is unnecessary for the completion of the task, and focused only on what's necessary in order to achieve the objective. Whatever it takes.

I'm curious if you consider this to be a superior way to approach goals.

It's the most efficient, regardless of your skill level, it's the one that gives you the best chances of success. Now it doesn't mean you'll automatically succeed, there's no guarantee.

Obviously a superior person can be beaten by an inferior person at times. Sometimes we might have a migraine at an unfortunate time etc.

Albeit don't you think that self-doubt can also cause someone to perform worse?

Does that not depend on the task, and the risks involved?

Let's take dating.

Couldn't overconfidence and boasting with your skills be a more successful dating strategy than too overanalyze everything and minimize risks? Which propably explains why not everyone is autistic.

If you don't start by focusing on what's necessary to do, in order to achieve your objective, where do you start?

And once you figured out what's necessary to do, why would you add anything unnecessary? Just for the sake or complicating the situation? For the sake of adding risks? For pride?

...

Remember how that guy in game of thrones got his eyes gouged out? He was so close.

Look at the faceless man, he doesn't give a shit about boasting, he doesn't make that sort of mistake

The early seasons of GoT were great. But I prefer to look at the real world rather than fiction.

And I see many people in power and in influential positions, or dating beautiful women, who could be described as prideful. It doesn't seem to stop them.
