The complaint isn't actually about they way they're speaking. The way they're speaking is a symptom of the way they're thinking.

In an age of the dumbest, most propagandistic narratives since the 50s, pumped out by the largest multinational corporations in history. Young people are looking at the world through shitty Marvel movie-colored glasses.

It's also not their fault, and the fictions they think they're living through are written by gen Xers being paid by boomers. It is not a youthful point of view, it is the sabotage of any emergence of a youth point of view, substituted with Disney product.

This is a "things just happen" argument. Things happen for reasons.
