Millenials are not giving into the graduate/professional school flame like many Gen-Xers did.

Millenials acknowledge that there are no jobs in this economy worth pursuing. Fuck it. They take advantage of their parents $$$ and do what they always wanted to do after college.

There is some nobility to this even though striver Gen-Xers give millenials shit. But we're aren't the ones whose lives revolve around meaningless work, and punch in, punch out schedules. Gas yourselves.

i was at a little dinner party with some gen x and boomers and me and my wife (we're millennials) and they launched into some tirade about millennials being lazy or whatever and i cited stats that millennials have a higher savings rate for age than boomers or gen x, so we're more responsible with $, which makes sense since it's boomers who destroyed the world economy and underfunded all social safety nets in the us, and then when they were all they don't want to work i was like well no shit, work is something you do so you don't starve to death, "nobility of work" is bullshit corporate bootlickers tell themselves to justify giving up on their dreams

room went silent, doubt we'll be invited to another one, but fuck them i can't sit through another one of those anti-millennial tirades by dumbass boomers when i'm 10x richer at half the age and certainly didn't make it thanks to some booming economy

i used to do the same w/"greatest generation" when they'd talk shit about us i'd be like hey at least we're not lynching NIGGERS amirite

At this point it is necessary to denounce another pathological fixation of the economic age, or one of its fundamental slogans: I am referring to the modern superstition of work that has become common to both left-wing and right-wing movements.

Just like the notion of “the people,” “work” too has become one of those sacred cows and intangible entities that modern man dares only to praise and exalt. One of the characteristics of the economic era, considered in its most plebeian and shallow aspect, is this kind of self-inflicted sadism that consists of glorifying work as an ethical value and as an essential duty, and in conceiving every form of activity as some kind of work.

A future and perhaps more normal mankind will regard the notion in which the means becomes an end as a peculiar perversion.

Thus, work ceases to signify something that is imposed only in view of material needs of existence, and to which no more room should be given than is required according to the individual and the status of his rank; on the contrary, work is absolutized and seen as a value in itself, and is associated simultaneously with the myth of paroxysmal and productive activity.

Moreover, we come to a real inversion. The term "work" has always designated the lowest forms of human activity, those that are more exclusively conditioned by the economic factor.

It is illegitimate to label as “work” anything that is not reduced to these forms; rather, the word to be used is action: action, not work, is what is performed by the leader, the explorer, the ascetic, the pure scientist, the warrior, the artist, the diplomat, the theologian, the one who makes or breaks a law, the one who is motivated by an elementary passion or guided by a principle.

But while every normal civilization, thanks to its upward orientation, intended to bestow a character of action, creation, and "art" even upon work (see, for instance, the corporations in the ancient world), exactly the opposite is happening in the present economic civilization: even action (or whatever is still worthy of the term) is increasingly attributed the character of "work" (i.e., an economic and proletarian character), almost out of a masochistic pleasure in degradation and contamination.

Both Randian capitalism and Marxism suffer from profoundly flawed assumptions about the primacy of work and human labor as fundamentals of social order. The result is that "work" (and working) become itself a moral end—which, put lightly, is exceedingly unhealthy to the human spirit, and, critically, would have been considered insane by effectively every single prior moral system.

the legacy of the greatest generation is winning WWII--pacific theater we didn't have the moral high ground and european theater we shouldn't have been in--and little boxes on a hillside made of ticky tacky little boxes all the same

you probably don't realize this but it's these statements that cause people to say millennials are propagandized. Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor, Germany declared war on us, and you seriously argued something using a song lyric. Let me guess, your other specialty is telling people to watch a fictional movie when you want to make a point.
