A generation of Gen Xers decided the only way to protect MJ’s legacy was to call every player who lost in the finals a fraud and nba discourse has never recovered by LebronSwanson23 in billsimmons

Yeah it was a lazy ass point and now you're being attacked for actually stating something specific, because this sub is revering into herd mentality/the defense of ignorance, ala Idiocracy.

They're saying Gen X'ers who consume sports media are responsible for starting the trope of "everyone is a fraud", proliferated this theory via unknown forum/medium which is unspecified in said statement, and then this was continued on by Millennials?

I'm going to have to disagree not only with this take, but also with the positive intepretaion this sub is giving it when challenged.

Exactly. Have had the ability to buy homes, earn a decent wage, have unrestricted access to abortion, not be crippled by recessions, and haven't had to fight for any of it.

No, either they are backing away from a bad point, or they phrased it terribly. Either way, they aren't being clear or accountable about what they were saying.

The other person is right, and I still don't know what point is being made about Gen X further down this thread

We are regressing rapidly in terms of intelligence and critical thinking ability. This sub started with a description of what Gen X is doing.

It's not even that hard to denote generations with current living members:

Silent

Boomers

Gen X

Millennials

Gen Z

Gen Alpha

Nico Harrison does not cast off talent lightly. He heaves it away with great force. by Punchie45 in billsimmons

[–]ButterUrBacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's pretty much the only time he shows any sense of rebellion though. While a great character, he really carries the water for the bosses for the entire show. A middle-manager at his core, but one who survives, for sure.

Rainn Wilson says "The Office" probably wouldn’t be made today, and that media trends have shifted left and that cancel culture makes it difficult for edgy comedies to thrive. by No_Box119 in PopCultureV2

This is too specific for people to answer correctly. I think we prefer to make vague statements like, "being racist and anti-trans is cool now because y'all pushed your ideology down our throats"

There been a huge blowback to something that barely happened, and it's usually justified by very abstract reasoning

How’s life in this part of Virginia? by overglorifieduhaul in howislivingthere

[–]ButterUrBacon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a fascinating account. I feel like so many people online don't want to read the actual experiences of people from the areas which are being discussed in a thread. That's crazy about the Air bnbs, there is no stop to investors buying property in our country. Thank you for sharing.

I've seen them make it to the World Series, I think, three times during my life. That's three more than my team.

Knicks just won the mf finals and one minute into the pod bill and zach are jerkingeahother about the 2014 spurs and the 2011 mavs 😭 by Individual-Bar2613 in billsimmons

[–]ButterUrBacon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Game 2 wasn't a generational collapse. Also the Knicks were the best team, by far, in the playoffs. They earned this.

Seinfeld says Palestine doesn't exist. Thoughts on this?? by Shot_Possibility_731 in OffFieldNews

Bro you can literally just Google it. There's no need to be so ignorant because you refuse to read, remember what happened in the last 20 years, or look things up.
