I don't have a problem with zoomers, but I will make fun of them for using TikTok. It's an unhealthy social environment. I know a zoomer who struggles with tiktok addiction and always does more poorly after using that app. They've been braver and kinder since they quit it.

So instead of building a better platform for them, you denigrate them for conforming to the world you left behind for them.

You are exactly the boomer you claim to hate

So if they're not going to save the world, nothing they ever do amounts to anything. Worse, the whole thing worked (the Zoomer quit Tiktok and they feel better now) so that was obviously bad.

And now, and please do mind that has nothing to do with age: Your argument is dumb and you should feel bad. In fact the first thing is Boomer talk, the shit they tried to get us with. Fuck that.

Feel free to waste your time beating up that strawman all you like; the rest of us have actual important shit to do.

At some point further down in your life you're going to look back, in regret, thinking "Why did I become the me version of Ben Shapiro".

And now the projection starts.

Tell you what. I'll just block you now and you waste my time again never.
