    Out of all the Gen Z bashing headlines I’ve ever seen… this is the only one I am inclined to agree with. It doesn’t even have to be a politically motivated disagreement; I’ve met too many young people that once you disagree with them on something, try to completely avoid talking to you and also do not take criticism of any kind well.

      Yup. That’s how it goes for sure for many. Not all, but there is a very large segment. They’re used to blocking or pressuring others into mass blocking (e.g., cancelling) others. There’s a time and a place for it, but it also seems to be the norm for anything that doesn’t align with them exactly.

      I’m a millennial and we have our own issues, but that is theirs.

      I can’t read the article, so not sure if this is all politically motivated or not. If so, I guess I can see their side to not disagreeing - there are moral issues that must be upheld.
