- As a Gen Z content creator, I recently appeared on Dr. Phil to discuss & debate generational differences between Gen Z and Baby Boomers. Have past generations screwed us over? Are Gen Zers lazy and entitled?

Basic summary: most z’s have been indoctrinated. Most boomers refuse to admit mistakes. Brad is the man lol
Brad is a genius.Mosr unbiased person ever . Because he isn't full of himself

Gen X: "pass the popcorn"
Millennials: *passes popcorn*
Lol
😂😂
💯 😅
Lol. Yep. They were our parents. We were latchkey kids. The cruelty, gaslighting, lies, and delusions of grandeur coming from BB's isn't new. Too bad BB's are still doing the same shit, now it is Gen z's turn to experience the horrorcow that is Boomers.
Underrated comment
Man, I thought this was gonna be a much more productive discussion than it was
Me too
You can't have productive discussions with people who think they can do no wrong and take no responsibility or accountability.
Lol that would require boomers to be willing to adjust their worldviews and we all know that's not happening
What did you expect from this monster of a man pHiL “dR”
Maybe you've never seen dr phil before? ;P
This conversation was so unproductive. There wasn’t even debate. Everyone seemed like they were walking on egg shells and trying not to offend anyone. Which is exactly the problem.
I agree i wanted them to talk about the gap between prices and wages how in the 50s and 60s prices and wages where neck and neck now prides are way up while wages are slowly increasing. And how to work the same job that decades ago you could get hired and trained to do the job, today to be even considered for the job you need a degree that takes multiply years and 10s of thousands of dollars and years of experience for.
"Gen Z isnt fragile"...
Meanwhile, cancels and censors EVERYTHING.
They're just jaded and desensitized to the extreme.
They didn’t have their ass’s beat.
They care about THEIR own feelings.
@@TheKim369bingo!
They didnt go in depth with victim mentality. Its a huge thing, deeply linked to overthinking and being entitled.
EXACTLY
Boomers do that a lot
@@mattalford3932 cope
I think they did, but the pacing all feels really awkward, like the show cut a ton of stuff out
@@sxdaliciousnot wrong though, the entitlement started with them. It got passed down and multiplied.
I would've really loved to see Millenials in the middle here.
they would have sided with Gen Z
We were totally needed in this conversation. I think millennials would’ve been sympathetic to both sides
I recently turned 27 and I relate with boomers more than my own generation.
Funny turned 26 today and feel the same way
Same dude same
PERIOD I am also 27 a 97 baby
@@khylerbane4523 born in the 1980s, relate more to pre-boomer generations.
same here.
The MAIN differences weren't even touched. Such as morality and expectations of one another.
I’m a millennial that had work ethic hammered into me at a young age. I came from a very poor family from rural America. I got my first full time job when I was 15. I’m a college drop out because I worked my way up into management in one of the largest casinos in the world, and decided I didn’t need college. Even though Gen Z is just the next generation from me, I’ve seen the worst work ethic I’ve ever seen over the last few years. Not only do most of the gen Z employees completely lack professionalism, but getting them to actually show up to work is next to impossible. We have such a major turnover rate between the ages of 18-28. They’re entitled and sensitive. It’s a nightmare to work with. I don’t blame the kids though. I blame their parents.
Yes, you can put some of it on the parents but a lot can go onto the indoctrination they are now getting in school. Like the professor said, he feels very pressured to give at least a "C" grade even to the ones who are clearly a failure. My job involves recruiting so I know exactly what you are saying about their work ethic. I think a big problem is they want everything now due to being entitled and suffer from a very short term thinking, don't look past the end of their nose view to their job/career.
@@oziguy27 parents can't control shit now.......social media does
@@MichaelReep222 Yes, social media is a massive problem and does make our job as parents seem like we're pushing Sh!t up hill! 😕
As someone who manages Gen Zs, you are 100% correct.
I also grew up poor and have been working full time since age 14.
A lot of Zrs that apply only apply over email...never in person, age 19-25 with zero prior work experience on their resume, and if they even show up for their interview, they're always late, dont even attempt to dress or look professional or clean, are not prepared to answer any questions or have questions prepared for the interviewer, and if/when they get the job, only want 15-20 hrs a week... which they constantly call in sick for, want someone else to cover, or ask for time off within the first 2 weeks of work.
There are more job openings in the US now than ever before, yet no one wants to fill them.
They all want to be paid not to work while believing they can make thousands a month living off of being a social media influencer on the side.
And they wonder why they cant live on their own and pay bills...?
🤦♀️
I would like to say that not all gen zrs are complete deadbeats. For example, me. I got hired at a grocery store (im in highschool) i work three shifts a week on top of sports and homework, and i was promoted to a managerial position after a year of work. You lump us all in the same group as the deadbeats. I don’t appreciate that. (Also if you wonder why people cant afford property, just look at the median income vs average rent price)
As a gen X myself, I think gen Zs crave acceptance and approval too much. They're too invested on getting attention and likes on social media. They like to highlight their individuality, which is great, but you can't expect everyone else to get on board .... what about my own individual right to disagree with your views?
Growing up i made a point of looking and being different from the socially accepted "norms" ... but i wanted to be regarded as a rebel not victimise myself. We got called names in school which instead of being offended by them, became our nicknames. Yes! Words have power, but only to the amount we're willing to acknowledge. I think the best thing about my gen is we just get on with it.
That dude with the nails is the privileged version of our generation. There are people his age struggling to get out of their parents house because of the price of rent.
Brad is the real diamond here; someone who spends time researching hard hitting issues, cutting through political bs, and works to translate that into easily understandable terms for others. That truly selflessness shows in how Brad comes in looking sharp in a suit, perfect posture, turns to look people in the eye when they talk/respond to him. Bryan looks like he needs to find a new shampoo/conditioner, is slid way down in his chair, his arms are folded like he is cold and needs another jacket, gives a quick head turn but it comes with a big head or hand gesture to draw attention, look at the blush on his cheeks and his excitement in his claps that he is getting attention when they played his clip coming back from break, and all his responses are "me" or "I" the only hard hitting issue he talked about was that older people don't accept him because he is gay. I don't think "just because he is gay" is the whole picture there, look at how he compliments the Boomer Dance woman, he makes it about skin complexion and hoop earrings, not "that was hilarious, I love your sense of humor" or "wow, what originality." For someone that "wants to be heard" he gives compliments on artificial things, and seems like he can't come to terms that everything about him is artificial, nothing of substance, there is no reason to listen to him.
Brad looks that part but he didn't do his homework well. enough. If he did he would know that the Boomers did not cause the 31 trillion dollar debt. It started with our country having to borrowing money during World War II (before the boomers were born) raising thee national debt from just a few billion to over 600 billion. While today the raise in the aging demographics (boomers) and health care cost have been a large contributing factor to the debt, its insulting to point finger to blame at them. Soldiers returning from World War II (keeping in mind they were mere boys wen the were enlisted) married and started a family. This surge, if you will, of new babies being born is where the term baby boomer came from. They didn't ask to be born...no more than you or I did. Pointing a finger at ehm and saying this is all their fault because they are the majority of that aging demographics that said to be one of the reasons for the rise in national debt. If you really want to play the blame game, let's blame the wars that have secured the freedoms you have to be gay if you choose to be, or to work in whatever industry you want to work, and lets not forget the moral obligation we have as human being to defend others from tyranny and preserving humanity. WARS COST MONEY! This country has fought in other wars since then. Brad also didn't take into account the trillions of dollars spend due to covid, further adding to our national debt. I guess we blame the boomers for that too. The national debt is brought on by various problems that are largely no one's fault but a consequence of supply and demand. To place that blame on just one group of people is like aiming a gun with your eyes closed and claiming that the target you hit was indeed your intended target.
Instead of trying to find someone to blame, how about all of our generations work together to find a solution so that it doesn't continue to rise. You could also start by asking our elected government officials why they keep foolish spending money on things that do not attribute to our livelihood and use that money to help drive down the cost of things that do, like healthcare. And I dare say this but greed plays a bigger role in cost than people like to admit. Just ask these large corporations that are selling, much needed, goods to the public at a 130% markup from what it actually cost them to make. I am especially referring to the Big Pharmaceutical companies that pay doctors to promote their medicines. There is literally a pill for everything these days. Ok, enough with the rant and back to the point. Stop playing the blame game and focusing on the problem. Turn your focus on a solution. Find a solution and people WILL listen to you.
@@melissalilesrealtor The last boomers were born in 1964, all bill raising revenue must start in the house, and you must be 25+ to be in the house, so we will look at 1989 as an affect of boomer policy. First we will rewind and tell you your data is wrong, in 1946 the debt was 269 billion, not 600 billion, it wouldn't reach 600 billion until 1976. In 1989, the last year any of the boomers could be disqualified for the house based on age, the debt reached a little over 2.8 trillion, quite a raise in 13 years. If boomers were truly upset, they would run for office or vote to decrease the debt. Debt reduction had happened before: from 1802 till the war of 1812 our fledgling nation managed to reduce debt each year, again from 1817 with the exception of 1 year (1822) till 1835 when we managed to go from 127 million to just $33,733 and 5 cents, intermittently from then during an upward trend that climaxed after the Civil War in 1866 when debt was 2.77 billion, it decreased to 1.5 billion in 1893, 1921-1930 the debt decreased each year, intermittently post WW2 until 1957, the last year national debt ever decreased. It is entirely valid to point fingers at the boomers. If they didn't like what had happened in the 32 years prior to becoming entirely eligible for the house, they have had 33 years to fix it. Instead they went from 2.8 trillion to 31 trillion, more than a tenfold increase.
The United States has been at war in all but 17 years in its history, there is more than 17 years worth of debt decrease years illustrated above, it's possible to be at war and decrease the debt during or after. If y'all complainin' about high pharma costs, I reckon it be the inflation that bit y'all in the ass, not the company youse keep. 130%, so cost a dollar to make, charge $2.3. That is extremely low, a cheeseburger is marked up 300% yet on average end of year restaurant profits are under 12% of revenue. Seems like the people that don't like private enterprise are preying upon those without full understanding of the math behind a business, digging in their hooks of propaganda, killing the natural right to freedom, and resurrecting the carcass into a zombie legionnaire of The Army of Un-Thinkers, those that moan a lot of babble, but have no facts, truth, or knowledge in their brains. You said, "The national debt is brought on by various problems that are largely no one's fault but a consequence of supply and demand." All my life politicians have been saying we need to spend more, we can get out of this recession this depression, if we just spend more. And when there is no more money to spend, they say the government needs to spend, spend for the citizen, spend the taxes, spend the deficit, prop up demand by spending supply will follow if we spend. Inflation doesn't exist, its only transitory, its not a problem, its not that bad of a problem, the greedy recipients of the spending did it, other party did it, Putin did it, the Saudis did it, everyone else but I and the spending did it, so go give the people I call greedy more of your money, actually give ME more money and I will make myself more powerful and then give them MORE of YOUR money FOR YOU. What is my solution to national debt? Take away their power, let companies fail, stop propping up long time losers at the expense of the future, stand in the jury box against unjust laws, stop them at the ballot box, protest, when all else fails throw small pieces of soft metal really, really fast at them, maybe through some sort of metallic tube device. How do you solve the problem of narcissists like Bryan the diamond? How many therapists does it take to change a light bulb? Just one, but the light bulb has to want to change itself. Bryan is all ready on the dark side, he can only save himself, but by pointing out what he is and what he shouldn't be, others may take notice, saving them from the abyss of The Need for Validation.
Right there! He has fair criticism of politics. Extremely rare to see
Poor excuse of a male. Gen Z betas

That's actually not true. Boomers were the first generation on the front line for a host of social issues from civil rights to anti-war and environment. The problem with Gen z is that they think life began when they were born.
@@niaedmonds3342Jim Crow was not a boomer. And since I have the suspicion you are a Democrat. It was the Democrats who voted against civil rights. A senator from the south named John Byrd was a proud, staunch racist. Guess who use to ride in parades with him? His initials are Joe Biden.

Ok Boomer!!! Just fade away.
I'm a so-called baby boomer. My sister was 12 in 1960 and I was 12 in 1972. She listened to Paul Anka, Chubby Checker and Franki Valli. I listened to Alice Cooper Led Zeppelin and Grand Funk Railroad. I had long hair but no man in 1960 had long hair. She went to university and was recruited on campus for a job while I went from university to being unemployed. But we are considered the same generation. What a load of BS.
Every generation has slight differences within the Generation. But enough in common to be of the same.

I don´t dislike this, but it´s just so superficial that it´s pretty difficult to enjoy to enjoy. I´d rather have seen them delve into at least half of the issues in the episode more deeply. Still, Brad killed it out there. Definitely the most sane of gen Z
This was such a fluff piece. I expected more from this conversation that wasn't there. Some topics were interesting but got over shadowed by the silliness
And it was a few dominating the conversation. Was everyone not in the first row just there to fill space?
They talked more about mental health issues than the price and wage gap how decades ago you could get hired and trained for a job but today for the same job you need a degree that takes years and 10 of thousands of dollars in debt and years of experience to be even considered for the same job
resentment for the boomer generations runs deep back to the X Generation
I thought my boomer parents were lame when they told her just go to college and you can get any job. But I also realized it wasn't true and moved on like an adult. This xer couldn't care less.
Because they ruined our future. They ruined our kids future. But they are dying. Younger voters now outnumber them so maybe we can start fixing the mess they left. There's resentment for good reason.
Thing is, our boomer parents were mostly hands off, unless we got in trouble, and then the belt came out.
“I think it’s tough to get ahead, financially”
Boomer: “Gun violence is worse than ever!”
And needs to declare she's Gen X. Like they were all going to go "oooOoooOoo okay!".
She was drastically grasping at straws there. Yes, gun violence is an issue, but I could feel their internal groan.
Funny how it wasn't as bad when *Gunsmoke* and *Bonanza* were still on the air.

I like how the one Gen Z in the white was talking about not being able to afford anything while making millions from streaming and living in a multi million dollar apartment in Dallas. She might be a Gen Z but can't relate.
That guy is right. It happens to all generations. Your generation has to deal with the mistakes past one's have, amd future generations will have to deal with mistakes your gen makes.
@@Night--Shift old people have always made all political choices since I been alive.
Boomers have a cognitive issue.
And previous generations have to deal with later generations mistakes as well.
Just because its an older generation, doesnt mean its not currently having to deal with the new ones policies, politics and social standards.
@crankybarista9306 Yall have a npd complex. You litterly are admitting that OLD people have an impossible personality that prevents them taking zero accountability. They blame previous generations, claim its how it is. I'm guessing it's one of those things that we just have to " let go " and suck it up. " pull the boot straps " lol 😆 Just saying, before I die from heart attack from stress, I pray just one boomer takes 🙏 accountability of how God awful your generation is, and was.
My dad is 75. The worse father out of all my friends. Even the fathers who left their family. Let me tell you the rage that triggers every time God wants him to say sorry. Lol dude has a mental breakdown. Kind of pathetic. How boomer generation litterly believe they have zero responsibility to help their kids, they truly are the entitled ones. I mean who here believes a boomer before it dies, will place new law to get rid of SS checks by the time I need it lmao. Since boomers got all the entitlement programs, had the privilege to work crappy jobs for more money lmao. God I do wonder how Jesus will perceive yall before you croke. He's going to ask yall the most simple question...

The problem with this panel is that the elders are afraid to call out their B.S. for fear of being cancelled. Of course there are huge differences between these 2 groups, but the adults are afraid to speak the truth out of fear of offending
My mom is blunt , she gives 0 fs lol
That's a nice excuse nice excuse I'm guessing you're a boomer

Woman in the red jacket is an apologist
Certainly makes you wonder how gen z got that way lol
I agree with Brad saying two wrongs don't make a right when it comes to being fired over an off color joke. But, I also agree with Gen Z that being fired for saying something morally wrong at the time has had the same threshold. You make a joke about God not being real in public and you likely would've been fired 20-30 years ago. Even if it was "just a joke".
20-30 years ago was the 90s-2000s. No one was getting fired for saying God isn’t real 😂
@@klc7275 You have zero recollection of the 90's and all the supreme Court cases regarding that exact issue.
There is a reason the satanic temple was founded in 2013. Read a book.
This is absolutely ridiculous. Being generation x I don’t know if I’m supposed to laugh or cry. First of the reasons being gay out and proud. Gen z didn’t do that. That’s years of hard work from previous generations to bust down walls that makes it possible for the way it is today. And cancel culture. You don’t like what someone says? Change the channel don’t destroy people’s life because the power of internet gives you the chance. People are different and that’s the beauty of it. Don’t act like morals is only applied to gen z and the rest of us poor souls barely survived before you came and saved our ignorant minds. So sick and tired of hearing about all the offended people out there. You don’t have to love, like, agree with everyone but you have to let people have their own opinions even if you don’t agree. That’s life. Buckle up.
These gen z content creators are our future prospects for doctors and engineers. Those important job roles are going to become obsolete because it’ll be all about content creation and social media likes.
Dont worry man many people in generation wants important jobs
Lol people are still going to med school, law school etc. What are you talking about?

And tic toks dances
@@9395gbare they or are they protesting Palestine?
The baby boomers that were chosen to represent the whole group were boomers who have more of the Gen z mindset to begin with. The older woman saying that none of the three of them were grandmothers or even mothers... Like... kay? Who's actually acting their age in this group? I want to hear from them.
PS. Don't waste people's time like flying them in when you're just going to let 1/15 of the participants in studio and people who couldn't even bother to get on a plane speak.
I'm a millennial, but I've never thought that the people before me were idiots, or have such simplistic thoughts about who they were and what they did. Every generation will be judged by the last, and each generation has all the advantages and technologies that came before it, as well as the disadvantages, and things we need to reflect on and change, from the vantage point of looking back on all that history and learning from it. Gen Z think they are so clever because they have all this technology, and are therefore superior. They seem to think it just came out of nowhere. They didn't invent it, and have no idea in the main how to build it, or how it works. My generation built those things that they use, and the generation before me built technology that enabled that technology, and so on back until the dawn of time. Ignorance of the current generation that they have it right, and will be young forever is astonishing. They will be judged and very quickly, as the next generation is hot on your heels.
The problem is (from my perspective as a software engineer) that zoomers don't really understand the tech they are using... it's so accessable they don't have to. This makes them exactly like boomers.
@@maskddingo1779 an excellent point.
The worst part about OK BOOMER Is that Boomers dont even get why younger generations are pissed.
Jobs: "Just walk in and shake their hand".
Dating: "Just be yourself, be a nice guy."
Education: "Go to College and everything will be ok."
"In my day I could pay for college with a summer job and got married at 22."
So i get they are out of touch. My parents are boomers and I heard the same crap. I am gen x. But ok they are out of touch and annoying about it and say dumb things. You don't have to listen. I didn't!
They got a new car ( strong economy, good paying jobs etc) and they passed it onto Gen X, Millennials etc all banged up and leaking oil....
This is the same debate since before these kids were born.
Older people will never understand the younger generation. And when they become old the same thing.
I remember Kurt Cobain even talking about this shit.
This is a waste of time
Well u just cry n don’t want to work for anything
@@ShomoGoldburgler no one is stopping you from working hard n making money crybaby.. the economy 2-3 years ago was booming
You want student debt to go down Get the universities to stop being so damn greedy & wasteful. When you schools with more diversity co-ordinaters rather than professors there is something wrong. Some school have spent millions on recreationl items like grottos & water parks in the school, so that more kids go there. School is for learning it isn't supposed to be a vacation spot. I am not saying that fun can't be allowed , but if schools focused more on teaching ( and not preaching) things would be better off for everyone involved.
I work with some Gen Z’ers and some have an incredible work ethic, but others don’t. It’s no different than any other generation. Their upbringing matters more than their generation title.
I completely agree. In my own experience, Gen Z is actually VERY split. I've met some insanely hard-working Zoomers, and I've also met the ones that everyone complains about on the internet. It just sucks when the reputation of the bad side ruins opportunities for the good ones. I've heard many employers who say they refuse to hire Gen Z full stop, and that really sucks for the ones that do work hard.
This whole video was one question and we’ll be right back 😂 must’ve been awful to see this live.
I'm gen a millennial and have an older brother that's gen x ( thank God ) .. we all know gen Z is sensitive ASF .. they don't go outside .. they don't fall down and scrapes on their knees they don't get hurt as kids they are over protected everywhere they go especially at school, so when something that can be slightly painful happens to them they are quick to cry out. And find a group that feels the same pain then they'll find a medical term for the pain, make it a hashtag and go crazy on people that disagree with their tears
And they're the worst preconceived know it all group. Zero experience, yet opinions are fact to the death. No wonder they're all depressed.
And who raised us that way? We are the product of the past generation people see us as an issue because we don’t fit into your mold of what we should be. People like to generalize the whole generation from what they see on the internet but that’s not the majority of gen z.
@@kasiapatrick5027 nah that's not it .. this same type of thing happened with the 50s and 60s ...The 50s was the age of perfection and the 60s was the age of the hippies and love.. I would compare gen Z to hippies of the 60s The only thing is hippies didn't have cell phones so they were outside and they cared about music so their music was better ( psychedelic music ). Society was way more fucked up so they really cared about social issues. there was no fake woke.

Edit* the one gen z in the suit actually has some sense. 🤷♀️
I knew what all those items were 🤦🏼♀️ 🤣
Me too!

The phone thing is true. People on their phones are not giving their full, undivided attention to the speaker. Full and undivided attention used to be the norm.
Yes. It use to be called “being respectful”. They have no clue about respect.
Pretending to give your full and undivided attention used to be the norm. Now kids don't bother with the facade which is a good thing.
@@dimfre4kske67 "...here is why it's a good thing"
I don't see how it benefits the individual or the company. "Go woke, go broke" is a thing.
@@lizafrench8455 Most companies also pretend to care about their employees until push comes to shove. About time the employees stop pretending.
@@dimfre4kske67 yeah, that is why unions exist. Nevermind that.
What I find troublesome and have found troublesome for years, is that corporations are entities. A legal citizen is also an entity. Why do corporations have the same rights as citizens? They are not the same.
Gen Z is more sensitive. There is no doubt about that. They over analyze things and they are almost looking for reasons to be bothered by things. And not bothered by something directed towards them, but they make society problems like it’s happening towards them specifically. Live your best life but don’t make everything about you..
Also Gen z is not the best at intelligence I’ve seen a vid where this guy goes around and ask Gen z basic questions like history questions
@@MrBrandonStar but have you seen the guy asking older people questions as well and they always reply with “I haven’t been in school in 40 years I don’t remember” ?
@@risingwho3503 lol
I found a boomer in the comments section
The Gen Z's eat tie pods. Enough said.
I'm not even going to watch this. I THANK the GOOD Lord, my kids, Gen Z and Millenials both, don't think this way, perhaps it is because of the Christian schools I paid for.....I used to blame my mom for all my problems too, until I learned that I must take responsibility for my own life and my own generation, and thank God daily for the blessings that I do have. I do think Satan is trying to divide us in the USA, ANY way he can. Take take the bait.
There's an easy fix to this situation. Ban smartphones in the classroom.
Agree and in public libraries too!
Doesn’t work
Gen Z really has no idea just how fast technology & information has increased in the last 20yrs
I do. 98 gen Z. I remember VHS tapes, block buster, boxed TVs, etc. I had a flip phone that was indestructible. We had a family computer and it was so slow no one used it except to draw on, but the computer could barely handle that.
I remember all the trends that happened. I might of been little at the time, but I think post social media was a happier time. Until people started collectively complaining on the internet.even the politics were better in the early 2000s
Yea we do
We do..
we literally do. we are the ones who master is so easily while older generations can’t convert pdf files or download info onto their computer or even connect to wi-fi lmaoo. Older technology is very simple compared to now so i don’t know where you came up with that.
@Ava I never said older technology wasn't simpler. What I said and meant is that Gen Z simply hasn't been around long enough to appreciate how fast technology has increased. It has nothing to do with whether or not you can use today's tech to its fullest extent. You simply weren't here to use the older technology when it was all we had
My brother had a psychotic break. Legitimate psychiatrists recognize mental health is more common because we don't abuse mental patients anymore.
The gay guy has a tiktok that proves they aren't accepting of anyone but their own beliefs.
Don't worry about that, they will learn when gen alpha comes of age and begins to cancel them.
The thing with this “I want to just be heard” is wanting the attention they’ve denied you as a child, it’s for entitled people who just want attention and nothing more because their lives are so boring no one pays attention. It’s just that simple they fail to cope so hard they’re as fragile mentally as dry leaves from a tree.
Missing attention "as a child" has nothing to do with it. They were, we were built to value attention over skill. Skills have been made worth less and less because of the destruction of the working class.
They are falling the same tricks you guys fell for into raising them. They feel if they get emotional, they will be more successful because they will gather attention wich in this shit society (that boomers and jews built), has become the greatest predictor in success.
I have friends that barely work at all and make more money than me working 70 hours a week in trade.
They work for corporations pushing this crap. Corporations that get subsidies for pushing this social retardation they cause.
That sensitivity and need to be heard is not going both ways. It is enforced by an elite that set these talking points long ago. This was debated on the battlefield 80 years ago and men now realize the we stood on the wrong side of history.
I would like you to watch "HOLLYWOODISM" on bitchute.com to see who shepherd all these things.
I would also like you to google and read Niddah44a and read to at least Niddah45b on sefaria.
If you do not take an hour out of your time to do those things zoomers are right about you.
That is an incredibly simplistic viewpoint and not at all accurate.
The other thing I notice about Zoomers is that they analyze every word you say. Like they all are human resource employees trying to catch you in a lie. Zero sense of humor.
No humor at all ..do they even laugh ?
I think this is exactly why I get stressed out talking to people on the internet sometimes. They really will extrapolate the most insane things about your character if you don't write a massive wall of text that covers every possible understanding of your comment that someone might come to.
It's not the "gun violence"😵💫 That Xer needs to get a grip.
She needs to have her ID checked, she acts like a pearl clutching grandma from the 1950s. Most of the gun rights icons today are Gen X, most of the anti-gun activists are boomers or Millennials, not X or Z.
I feel like gen z is kind of a buzzkill when is comes to comedy, people will blow you up online when you make offensive jokes and they know that they don't like offensive jokes.
The problem is you all aren't comedians. Leave the comedy to professional comedians who understand dry humor, sarcasm, and who understand their jokes are just jokes.
Also when non comedians make jokes their jokes tend to be rooted in true hatred and prejudice towards others. Big difference.
@@9395gb Yeah, "leave it to the professionals" listen to the experts, like Vast Care, they know what people think and feel deep inside
@@9395gbSo you’re telling people who’s sense of humor doesn’t jive with yours to sit down and be quiet. That’s not how it works in a constitutional republic hun.
@UnionAdvocate no I think genz is overly sensitive. But I also that regular people aren't good at comedy or reading the room. Leave it to professional comedians like Dave Chapelle.
@@9395gb It has nothing to do with you thinking regular people are good at comedy. You just want to control people. My humor is dry. Not everyone gets my jokes. That isn’t my burden. You’re problem is believing you have the right to cancel someone because you think they should keep their personal style of comedy quiet. That’s a you problem.
Now you need to do the same discussion with people who actually know how to record and present arguments according to rock hard data instead of just having a ted talk with opinions being the primary source of the discussion! I don't see where this Convo brought forth any real tangible resultions to our overlying problems it was more entertaining than informative is all I'm trying to say!
They glossed over every topic they talked about so it was a lot of nonsense lmao
Robin should slow down with the plastic surgery, she is going to look like joan rivers did soon.
Neekolul is the biggest hypocrite in the room. She legit is living a great life and has a great apartment but is complaining about how it’s hard and a luxury to have a apartment. Like she gave a tour to her room and I could only wish to have a place likes hers. But she is so unaware of how good she has it.
You can have it for but still be aware of how hard it is for people in general. She probably knows she has it good.
Doesn’t she work for it though? Wouldn’t she then know how hard it is to have her own apartment? Just because she has an apartment doesn’t mean she isn’t qualified to speak on how expensive it is to have your own place. Quite the opposite, she said, it’s seen as a luxury to have your own apartment.

Gen X and the Greatest generation just getting on with it...
This was a really pointless conversation that danced around the absolute folly that is the baby boomer generation and the complete dumpster fire that is Gen Z with nothing of substance really being said.
Side bar on the comment about college education. There is a lack of education on education. While we want to support of children and tell them they can be anything they want to be, I have had to educated my children/young adults on what that means. You can be a marine biologist; “HOWEVER”, there is not a demand for that career and it will require a lot of sacrifice to get actually get that job once you’ve graduated college. It’s been my experience that young adults are not doing their homework as they look towards a college degree. “That sounds cool, I think I’ll study this.” It’s naïve and a waste of money.
As far as the national debt, it is preposterous to think that this debt will end with GenX. You will never pay off this debt and, in fact, you are contributing to this debt right now. The debt will surpass the trillions as the cost of everything continues to rise.
Many of them praised the current POTUS for the student loan debt write off but are clueless how that was piled onto the current debt. Quite irratating to listem to some Gen Z journalist bringing up the national debt blaming others yet take no responsibility for piling onto it!
This is so true. I grew up in California and now live in the Midwest and I was very surprised by how differently the college conversation is handled. In California, you're basically told that if you don't get at least a Bachelor's degree then you'll be a homeless loser. My dad pressured me into getting a degree under threat of eviction and now I have to deal with that debt. Where I live now, the high schools and even middle schools are super supportive of the trades. There is a whole academy in my town where the high school kids can actually take classes during school time to learn lucrative trades. Their teachers make it a point to tell them that college is not the right decision for all or even most people. I wish I had been given that encouragement in California, the pro-college propaganda was oppressive out there.
Zoomers aren’t dumb they’re distracted from life.
As a millennial who went to college doesnt use my degree, I learned more from my internships or real world or experience than from any professor. I think professors should not be thanked or given gratitude.."Those who cant do...Teach" is the phrase that comes to mind. EDIT: I don't like seeing a professor get a raise for teaching nothing... Nothing they teach actually applies to the real world; yet they get tenure and a raise and will leave their students to the real world after they leave the "safe space" of college. Once the student leaves most professors dont give a shit.
Everyone I know who graduated with a degree in a STEM field is making serious bank. Professors who teach in STEM fields truly do add value and should be paid higher than liberal arts professors. Students need to start thinking of college as a trade school with and ROI, and not a social experiment with drunken frat parties getting a worthless degree that don't contribute to the real world.
Ssshhh are you trying to put a target a GenX and millennials?
More networking needs to happen in colleges to. So many people get their degrees and never work on meeting the people at those companies that they want to work at. I only found out about that on my final year thanks to a job recruiter at a tech company scouting people. I told my brother to focus on the Trade schools first then just college in general.
So true. 99% of all my Millenial and Gen Z employees with University Degrees cant even do basic math or write legibly.
College in the U.S. is one of the biggest rackets (next to insurance companies).
@CrankyBarista You can't make sweeping statements like that - STEM fields are incredibly important and valuable. I think the biggest issue is that people think ANY degree is better than nothing. I've literally seen job postings that require some form of higher education, without specifying which, for a job that you definitely DONT NEED higher edcation for. Its tripple bad with all the debt that people collect as a consequence in the US. I live in europe, where universities are free and even here the inflation regarding educational status is hitting hard. The amount of retirement you can expect is tied to your education, no wonder grades are inflating and people are trying to get "easy degrees".
I want to compliment you Brad. You are a well rounded man and its great to see. You give me hope for the future and I encourage you to spread your thoughts and views to young men and women and hopefully things wont just go to S**T for future generations. You seem to be open minded enough to see where the generations failed and got things wrong but are not afraid to point out and criticize the things that you feel your own generation has gotten wrong. Keep being you and I wish you the best in life.
As GenX i would have killed to be the outside looking in on this panel.
Millenial here. Your friend in the "unimportant unless they need someone to blame shit on" cohort.
@@jessied3696Elder Millennial to Millenial, that comment had "Marsha!Marsha!Marsha!" vibes
I despise both sides (except for you, Brad. You were great).
Truly felt like the worst stereotypes of both generations were on display. Boomer narcissism, failure to take accountability for their failures (including dumping the consequences of their failure to live within their means on us), and Zoomer fragility and absolute certainty that there's no way up without Daddy Government pulling them up.
Zoomer fragility was taught by the OG snowflakes. Boomers.
But you made the same mistake. Remember the GOTCHA! moment about the closet gays?
They existed!
So did the minorities!
The black woman!
The disabled with little rights!
You guys speak of these people only in the hypothetical and go right to stern accusations and judgments on them all like they are a monolith of same powers of decisions.
And like you all and the rest of us arent doing the same "That should be fixed" and trying our best with split focuses of different groups with different strengths delegated and then handing it off to the next because time ran out
Elder is a legit biological age development group. Elders get slow and grumpy and they miss their dead ones and their heyday as they head to the end. Have a heart when they crab at you. You WILL do the same. But you will have raised your young to despise you. A tragedy bc you will only realize you were wrong all those decades ago to despise boomers when you are old and it's TOO LATE to change it because your heyday is gone, you're in grumpy years and they control the culture. And their culture will be to bitterly despise you for not fixing it "your wars" (there will be "your wars")
Youth live to point at other countries that do things right. Like Japan. ... Japan values their elders.
Elders are also old black women (the bottom rung of respect or any control), women, minorities who tried harder for half, gays who were beaten. But they handed you something you think you invented: inclusivity. So you don't see them when you say you despise the people.
Stop despising and just be with each other. In 200yrs the people will look back on us as all the same age of old dead folks.

Very sad times for America
I would argue the new generations that base their self worth on likes and clicks are the far more narcissistic ones.
@@CrankyBarista Ironic, coming from a boomer who inherited the most prosperous economy in America's history, that their parents built, and benefitted the most from white privilege, is calling us narcisstic and self entitled.
Conservatives: "We're guaranteed freedom of speech in this country, that means I get to say whatever I want, even if you don't want to hear it"
Liberals: We're guaranteed freedom of speech in this country, that means we can give you negative feedback even if you don't want to hear it"
Conservatives: "HELP!!!! I'M BEING CANCELED!!!!!
Being canceled is not “giving negative feedback” and, needless to say, conservatives are not the ones who equate receiving negative feedback with being canceled. Get back on the short bus.
Boomer here, Gen Z grew up with computers, I grew with computers. I learned them as they advanced.
I’m 20th century kind of guy born in 1953 I was 19 when I died in the Easter Offensive of 1972 was a teenage Boomer in Vietnam smoke some weed now I'm gone. “The Average infantry soldier had about 90 seconds to live in fire fights because of Vietcong Machine Gun nest were so effective during the Easter Offensive”. Ok Boomer!!! Just fade away.
I love how the Ok Boomer girl is here because she did a dance to a song. As if she has any relevance or knowledge to this entire conversation.
Dude the way she says living on her own is a luxury now. She is so hypocritical when she has a nice fancy apartment and makes so much money but she claims she struggles. That’s so entitled right there
@@armandoxred it’s not really entitled. she is self aware and understands the struggles that gen z has to put up with.

It's why master degrees matter more now, anyone can get a bachelors.
@@12SlimJims that's actually because there's a much larger pool of college grads than before
It also has to do with how university structures have changed-universities are no longer academically based; their primary concerns are administration and catering to student interests; college gets more expensive? Well now it’s a consumer experience that you pay premium for, and it’s the professor’s ass if they don’t provide it!
The zoomers are annoying, as always. Completely unself aware and self righteous.
Well, who made them this way?
@@camelsintinycars probably their parents and society. They are still responsible for their behavior though.
@@MeganSmith80 I see them as mentally hill people screaming in a corner bobbing their head as the society boomers built make no sense. They are told the things that would fix them make them worst and vice-versa. I hope one day white people could be proud but this day is still far away.
@@camelsintinycars i understand your point. But I believe that we all have a responsibility to be accountable for our behavior. Perhaps the boomers caused problems, yes, but that's a reason, not an excuse, for example, to use your cellphone in class and be a jerk.
@@MeganSmith80 Market capitalism is the root of this. Makes all your hard work meaningless as some trend can render all your hard work meaningless.
Why would teachers tolerate cellphones in class is beyond me but. I have been to many classes that had this problem and some that didn't. Usually was that the necessity of the knowledge supplanted the urge to fiddle or that the class was interesting enough to fight our diminishing attention span.
I think being a jerk is actually too repressed.
I'm not saying I wish more people were "jerks" but I think more and more people are filled with pent-up anger because of truths they cannot express. It creates false divisions and forces us all into a dystopia.
This wasn't entirely brought up, but some of the reasons why things are expensive. Like back in the boomers generation you could get a brand new car for like 2,000 dollars. While there are plenty of things that would go into it.
But I think that inflation, and not spike inflation has gone pretty unnoticed.
What do I mean exactly is that the Federal Reserve tries to target a yearly 2% inflation increase. You might ask what's a big deal about this. Well sure 2% doesn't seem like too much in a year. But that's looking at it in the short term. But it has dramatic consequences in the long term. How about 20 years of 2% increase
2×20=40 that means in 20 years inflation increases by 40%. That means in a twenty year span prices of everything jumps 40% in that time period. And that 2% inflation rate is just the targeted amount. Oftentimes especially what we've seen in numerous instances think of now, the great recession ect.. where inflation gets much higher.
So we are seeing a dramatic increase in overall inflation outside the targeted 2% per year. And with that inflation increases what we also see is that wages are forced to increase to keep up with that amount of inflation, which effectively makes that inflation almost permanent in the economy. We are slowly pricing our way out of life. The reason why the US economy tends to be so weak competitively in multiple areas and why you see alot of work leave the country is because of this inflation which forces higher wages for the exact same work that can be done overseas, for far much cheaper.
Our economy has become a sellers economy meaning our market is the place to sell goods. While other countries who have much cheaper costs have become buyer markets, meaning they are the places to buy your goods and services from.
This is completely unsustainable, and will lead to a slow death of our economy because simply most industries would not be able to be competitive simply due to inflation inflating costs.
We need to start to consider making a targeted goal of Deflation, so we can burst this terrible inflationary spiral. While it might be harmful in the short term, it would do wonders for the economy in the long term.
Gen-X sits at the bar in the background just rolling their eyes at the whole debacle while missing their Lost Gen and Greatest Generation grandparents who they learned to be independent from.
Put Andrew Tate there, it’s gonna be real interesting
Whomever edited this did you dirty, Brad.
90% of the problems they're talking about are not generational it's just late stage capitalism
One thing they failed to mention is that a lot of college students are taking majors that in the market place is useless acting, social studies, and all the other stuff like that
The lady in the red said that “gen z will be 30% of the work force in less than 10 years”. Maybe not. Gen Z is the generation who has embraced the anti-work movement. The first girl on the show has done just that.
Basically …boomers don’t know the difference of current slang an technology …. An Zoomers don’t know the difference between a man an a woman😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 💯
27:20 They living beyond their means? What do you mean?
The baby boomers lived in an era where they were 8-10 per family, now it's 2-3 children.
They had 1 car, now 1 car each parents. They didn't have cellphones, now it's the cellphone of the year for everyone including children.
They didn't have a computer at home and went to school with a paper and a pencil, now they have $1500 computers to go to school.
They were satisfied with a house they built themselves, now they're not satisfied until they have a house that's worth 1 million.
So who lives beyond their means?
The American boomers lived in a time where a guy without high school diploma could buy a house, a car and support a family with 3 kids off of 1 income. The minimum wage was $54/h in today's dollars and if that wasn't enough they spent gen X, millennials and now gen Z's money not to better society but to better themselves and now that they are retired they are spending all of "their" money instead of doing generational wealth building like their parents whose inheritance they received and are now also spending.
These zoomers are only open & accepting of people who they agree with!
I mean that's a blanket statement and it's not so black and white
@@Jessica-gk5tt Well it’s an easy stereotype to make since so many of them plaster their thoughts and feelings online for the world to see. The “tolerance and open mindedness” goes out the window when they find out the other person has opposing thoughts
I can agree with that, although i do believe we're becoming more open to opposite views. The Internet so far has taught us that differing opinions can cause explosive debates, and the majority of us Just don't have the energy for that.
I saw your debate against Michael Knowles. If you run for office I will change my citizenship to vote for you.
This needed to be longer. They are really just skimming over a lot of things .
Gen Z : you guys ran us up 250k debt each! Old Boomer : wasn’t me! I’m not a boomer 😂 then get off the stage !!! Did you see the show title?!
The baby boomers are the largest and wealthiest generation to have ever existed, but what caused the baby boom? My dad is a boomer. They had a milk man, mail man, ice man. Generally, a lot of men showing up at grandmas door back then. Mommy's Baby, Daddy's Maybe !!
Talk to these people in ten years and see if they still feel the same way
I am gen z, but I dont identify as one
Things that need to die:
- "like" being used all the time, including when no approximation is being expressed
- "yeah, no"; you make no sense
“Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.”
That is a quote from G. Michael Hopf, this is on a cycle, and we are now in hard times with weak men that are going to have to become strong.
I wonder why they didn't have any conservative Gen Z on there.
I was born in '84.... One of the things I see flawed in Gen Z is that they often times go to school for shit degrees.... There used to be an understanding that jobs needed to be filled in all sectors - no one wants to work in infrastructure, the don't have an interest in working utility companies or anything that's harsh work. Strangely, Z'ers don't get that their Liberal Arts degrees don't pay and that everyone can't be a fucking lawyer or day trader.... something has to do the essential jobs. They're unhappy because they feel as though they're not doing what they were "meant" to do with their lives.
But when the fuck ever in human history was maintaining society about doing what you wanted? It was always about being a part of something that was greater than yourself, for most individuals.
I am 90s early before 94 and I believe this generation is out of hand
Gen z I guarantee will not be the majority of the work force in 10 years😂
Bet she wouldn't recognize a retirement plan either. A boomer could walk down to there local grocery store get a union career retire early and own multiple homes. Not to mention get Medicare earlier. Yet a gen z walks to the same grocery store same union even but won't make enough to own 1 home unless a second income from a spouse helps and will get a small retirement at 65 but still won't retire because they will get Medicare later
I always find it weird when people use phrases like “you got it wrong” as if their beliefs or ideas are the end all be all and they couldn’t possibly be anything but right.
Also “I don’t think we’re fragile” literally have half a generation of people who can’t leave their house without having a panic attack and who choose hot mental illnesses of the week to pretend to have for online sympathy. Like how can they say they aren’t more fragile IMMEDIATELY after saying if you hurt someone’s feelings you should lose your job.
Jmo but when in school its learning time, no phones should be allowed or turned off. If one does not earn the grade they know it, no more entitlement in grades not earned. Will never get the social media, where people think the whole world wants to watch their life. Talked to a few genz in my neighborhood and they stated social media causes so much stress and their peers have talked about not getting LIKES they find depressing. Sad thing is from the bouncy seat as babies parents are raising kids electronically.
As a millennial, I agree on both sides. I have college debt, experience is hard to come by when trying to get a job, and self expression is ok in moderation. My parents have to continue working even at their ages just to have ends meet, they are not the most tech savy and we ridicule them for it. Later down in life my kids will have their own problems we need to acknowledge and I will be going through what my parents went through in life.
Keep telling yourself that
As one of Beth's high school classmates, I'm surprised and amused to often find myself the oldest person in the room. When I joined Chuck Palahniuk's writing workshop this summer, I enjoyed learning about these younger men. But they also had to learn about me. I'm not just a Cat Lady!
tbh most college classes are just there to tell you what to study, most of it you learn on your own at home
That chick was so wrong about why the Dixie Chicks changed their name...had nothing to do with their comments about Pres. Bush and their stance on war.
The country trio has changed the band's name to The Chicks in an apparent distancing from its association with racism in the South. The move was accompanied by a new song, "March March."
She wasn't talking about them changing their name, so therefore it isn''t possible for her to be wrong about that. She was talking about the public reaction they got many years ago when they criticized the Bush war on terror.
@@andrewgeissinger5242 Actually she did say they changed their name after the backlash from their Bush comment. She is incorrect about why they changed their name.

Boycotting isn't the same as cancelling. Not buying music is but the same as trying to stop their music from existing. Viciousness.
He should have done a segment of boomers trying to figure out the different streaming services or saving their photos properly. Even better...have them transfer all of their data from one phone to another or backup a computer.
funny how kids like you feel superior because they were born with a phone in their hand, let me tell you something you won't like, boomers created the internet you now enjoy, the mobile services you spend your days using, the phone that is in your hand right know, that is boomer tech and my guess is a boomer one of your parents, worked a real job to pay yours. Everything you enjoy has been created by the old people you feel superior to, people from an age where they worked their butt off dreaming to become engineers while your generation only want to become tiktokers
Gen Zs are entitled, attentions seeker, not focused.
Gen Z needs to get a set of balls. It's pathetic.
Interesting show- Not many issues discussed about Boomers-we were the Gen who initially went against authority-Civil rights movement came about, Women's movement, Protesting the Vietnam War which ended it.At 18 men had to register for the draft & if your number came up you went to Vietnam.We saw many of our peers & family not make it back as did previous Gen with the World Wars. We began to question authority where the previous "Greatest" Generation respected authority. So questioning the world as is by Gen Z should be very understandable to a Boomer.(don't like labels though) As far as debt-I believe Brad was referring to government debt of $31 trillion. Not really a boomer problem- more of a govt/business/political system problem that perhaps is enslaving everyone for a reason.Questioning the system that isn't working for all generations is a good thing- accepting narratives on climate, medicine, social injustices,etc that come from the same system & are likely corrupted is another problem. It isn't unique to just one generation.
lol Boomers always taking credit for everything they didn't do, and blaming others for their own b.s.. The average Boomer was like 12-13 when the civil rights act got ratified. You had nothing to do with that, you weren't in the workforce, or voters, and you weren't a constituency. Again, Women's Liberation Movement in the '60s, not voters, not even working yet. As for the Vietnam War, yeah you guys were protesting, THE DRAFT not the war, in fact, you guys didn't give a sh it about it until it started effecting you by getting drafted because you all are selfish and entitled, and didn't want to fight for your country like your parents. , also the war didn't end because you protested it LOL had nothing to do with why the war ended. So all I gotta say is........ OK BOOMER. You left us a turd storm and are STILL not owning up to it. Newsflash, most of the politicians RIGHT NOW, jacking up the debt with insane entitlement programs FOR BOOMERS, ARE BOOMERS THEMSELVES trying to make your own end of life easier at the expense of your children's, and their children's future. You talk about "questioning authority" but only when it threatens the nice little pie you made yourselves.
I think he might have been implying the social benefits and their expansion during the Boomers generation.
We have a critically over entitlements programs, that were over expanded. And their levels unsustainable, and in fact Social Security funds are expected to run out in the 2030s.
And genX has been asking what happened to your generation. When did "hippies" all fold and start voting ultra conservative and trapping us in these government systems and rolling back any progress? Boomers in average chose self preservation and money over social progress and that's why we are here with that debt load.
@@noticedruid4985yes, but its once again the fault of the government and who theyre giving it to or taking it from.
Social programs wouldnt be as big of a problem if senators and program directors werent so corrupt.
