Being called the dumbest generation absolutely infuri8s me (>_<) jkjkjk truth is it doesn’t bother me, every generation has its share of both critics and supporters, our generation being no different. What does grind my gears though is that some people insist on indoctrinating others with their ideas, ideas that are purposefully created to draw attention to issues that are minuscule compared to other problems in this world. These people write books that criticize generations for using the internet too much rather than shinning light on those people who don’t have it or for that matter people that don’t have running electricity and looking at it more in tune, people that cant even meet the basic needs. Yes everyone is entitled to have and express their own opinion regarding any issue but I believe that before we go out and publicize them, we should first think of the more important issues that need to be addressed.
I agree. I feel like Bauerlein did just stir up drama by writing this book. More focus should be put on important issues going on in the world instead of whether or not people think our generation is dumb.
ReplyDeleteI also agree. with you and Rachael. We all have our spectators that are always going to tell us that we are wrong and that what they do is always correct. His problem is that he can't admit to his faults. Maybe what his generation did was wrong. What we should do is keep on trucking along and dont worry about what he or anyone else has to say about our generation. Ultimately we are all he has.
ReplyDeleteRachael I so agree. I feel hes just putting our generation down and saying we cannot strive in this world. I feel that if his generation was so great why did they leave our generation with a complete mess?
