What generation has the most annoying political discourse?

[wimp]

People say boomers are the worst, but I have to go with Gen X on this, with Gen Z in second place.

[Damocles]

Boomers have such boomer takes on everything. Their general inflexibility and inability to adapt to modern circumstances leaves them, among other things, not only vulnerable to propagandization, but openly embracing it. And yet, we are still governed by them.

Every generation after the Silent Generation has an equally annoying political discourse, abet for different reasons.

[Benjamin Frank]

Gen X discourse was dominated by Reagan Revolution right wing rhetoric.  Terrible.

[It’s so Joever]

Every generation from the Silents to the Zoomers has a horrid political discourse based on a tainted philosophy. These past generations have been spoiled with relative prosperity and as a result turned to failed Reaganism/Trumpism. Silents to Xers most embody this, but millenials and us Zoomers will likely be no better once we are in a better position.

More specifically, Silents are full of traitors. (Republicans)
Boomers are so bad they literally get a meme.
Xers were the Reagan cultists.
Millenials are becoming worse as their relative financial position improves.
Gen Zers are caught up in culture wars and ignore our true problems.

What is needed is a major event which once again necessitates cooperation. That is the only hope at changing our now toxic culture. Maybe Covid counts, we will see with the younger Zoomers and Alphas.

Millennials are the most annoying but probably the least dangerous.

[John Dule]

If I have to hear one more Boomer on cable news say "REMEMBER THE DAYS OF TIP O'NEILL AND RONALD REAGAN? THEY DISAGREED WITH ONE ANOTHER BUT STILL HAD MUTUAL RESPECT AND GOT THINGS DONE. WE COULD ALL LEARN A LOT FROM TIP'S EXAMPLE", I will probably have to shoot my TV.

Gotta go with Gen Xers. That's the generation of Republicans that has produced the right-wing authoritarian true believers like KKKobach and J-Haw. Out-of-touch boomers who just want their damn tax cuts and Federalist Society judges can't hold a candle.

The Gen Z combination of post-truth cluelessness and self-aggrandizing moral preening is getting pretty bad too, but it might just be a product of youth.

That's such a dumb article lmao, she sees one weird TikTok and thinks that it represents an entire generation.

Gen Z

[𝕭𝖆𝖕𝖙𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖆 𝕸𝖎𝖓𝖔𝖑𝖆]

Generation X is the generation that is most big on M5S and Lega and which produced such outstanding political actors as Salvini and Renzi. It's also the generation of my parents.

Also lol at the idea that a generation whose oldest members are 23 years old and a majority of which are minors has a political discourse anywhere near coherent or influential enough to get compared to the others.

Your generation's embarrassment is TikTok and our generation's embarrassment is Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus. Own up to it.

I don't want to be associated to TikTok and if I were Gen Y I wouldn't want to be associated to Bieber and Cyrus, thank you.

Boomers: "Kids these days are selfish, entitled, hypersensitive snowflakes. Also how DARE you say 'Happy Holidays'??"

Gen X: "Nothing matters, everything sucks, let's do drugs and make money."

Millennials: "OMG guyz, politics is just like this bland, clichéd, incredibly safe narrative I've been obsessed with since I was 12!!"

Gen Z: *posts wojak political compass meme with obscure ideologies no real person has ever heard of*


I'm gonna say Boomers are the worst, because the hypocrisy/cognitive dissonance really gets to me, but Gen X nihilism is very bad too.

[Sopranos Republican]

A majority of Boomers whether liberal or conservative act like you’re insane if your default position on most issues ISN’T to bomb other countries, so they take the cake by a mile.

[hyouzel the predictor]

If you are talking about most annoying political arguments, its definitely Gen Z. The idiocy of some TikTok arguments I see on my FYP are just... kind of insane.

"why mlk was a conservative"
"trump is good because he made the economy go up"
"biden is actually antifa because if you type in antifa.com his website comes up"

Its the dumbassery of the boomeriest of boomers with none of the life experience and I HATE IT

[MarkD]

I'm annoyed at efforts to stereotype the generations.

[Tartarus Sauce]

Boomers for poisoning our current political discourse, Zoomers for poisoning our future political discourse (assuming one considers political discussions on Reddit an advanced indicator).

[Chunk Yogurt for President!]

As far as the buzzwords they use, I'd go with millennials or Gen Z.

What's with the belief being implied by some in this thread that Cawthornian alt-lite lib-triggering is representative of Gen Z political discourse? Do none of you know any teenagers who aren't straight boys?

Given the demographics of this sub, probably not.

Most straight teenage boys are not Cawthornian alt-lite lib-triggerers, but most Cawthornian alt-lite lib-triggerers are straight teenage boys.

Well, that makes Cawthorn look pretty bad, since he last was a teenager in mid-2015.
