Did Millenials prepare for a future that doesn’t exist anymore?

🎯”Middle” & even “working class” are nostalgic terms from a bygone era when we had job security & living wages. We are a country of “haves” & “have nots” where, post pandemic, the top 20% now own a staggering 90% of ALL wealth.

😭🫠 this is both depressing and comforting at the same time

There's been no future for American workers since Reagan

And our boomer parents still live in their past reality, blaming the millennials for not owning homes, not being able to travel, the inability to start your own successful business, or that we’re unable to “hold a job”. It’s exhausting trying to explain our reality

"Doesn't exist" is whitewashing terminology that obscures the crimes that were committed. Our future was stolen, our prospects were raped, we were defrauded. Actual people, very wealthy ones, are to blame. Anger needs to be felt for things to change.

All of us prepared for futures that turned out not to exist anymore. It's just that the younger you are, the worse you have it. And all of us are now at an inflection point in history where the only instruction manual that matters anymore is the one for building inner strength.

Millennials again thinking they're first to experience something I wrote about in college in 1991. Anyway, no intergenerational battles, only class war.

The American Dream was a lie…a made up thing to suck us into this corrupt way of life..

My (not exactly) boomer dad is finally getting hit with this reality. He’s a 30yr Navy vet, became an anesthesiologist making $120+/hour & can’t retire. His bills & elderly care for my gma have tripled in the last 5 years alone. He’s finally understanding what we’re going thru

Yes, they all lied. What future? We are not even allowed to be present or experience peace at all.
