Millennials. That group that ranges somewhere between 15 and 35 years of age. They think they know it all. They think they have the authority to tell everybody that they know it all. They feel entitled to it all. They think they own it all. They have no common sense. They think all should be the same. And if any of that doesn't happen then it's someone else's fault.
And they show no remorse about any of it.
Of course, it is our fault. We raised them to where no one "loses". We raised them with seat belts, hard hats, Neosporin (triple action ointment kind), a Kleenex box with aloe, warning labels on water, and full-time school psychologists. And we somehow did it while we were drunk, high, divorced, promiscuous, and with no morality system to guide us. Some of that is tongue-in-cheek. Yes, Neosporin is good. But the point is we coddled this generation so much; we taught them to be "self-loving" and "sufficient" so much; we raised them that what ever they do is "ok" so much...that we forgot to actually teach them the lessons of life.
The worst one of them all is the heir-apparent, Princess Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She is the epitome of this generation. Not only is she the leader of this smart-mouthed ("who dis"), uneducated ("parts of government"), and inexperienced ("free education") generation, she is also the voice of the new Democrat ("Committee choices"), as if the old ones weren't bad enough. She just doesn't get that her ideas are the reasons why millions of people have been killed in the past, millions of people are being hurt today, and that millions will suffer in the future. All we have to do is look to the past, first. We have forgotten the ideas of Stalin, Mao, Kim, and Castro. Together they are responsible for 40 million deaths. We have forgotten what it is like to hear the heart-wrenching stories of survivors from these countries.
Let's look back in short about the ideas of Marx, the father (blah) of communism. He was raised in a secular family and his acquaintances in life pushed him farther away from any religious conviction. Some may think that is not a big deal but it is. It gave him no direction. He went to a private school. (hmmm....) He was coddled in his education. And when he couldn't handle the way things were he got moved to other schools and even got expelled from higher education systems. The Industrial revolution caused an inequality in human life (he had money) so he he came up with theories. Life is about human struggle. This struggle is based upon economic status. Human existence will go through four stages of economic struggle. The first one is feudalism. Communities formed kingdoms but the king took power. The rich rose up and took power from the kings and set up capitalism. But he believed this system destroyed us so one day the working class (the proletariat) will rise up and take power away from the capitalists leaders (the bourgeoisie). This will be a violent over taking and it will usher in socialism. This system will have to create a forced equality on the people because it will not be easy for people to give up things and it will remain that way until everyone is equal. Once that happens then the last stage of human existence will begin, communism, a utopia. No need for government. No need for laws. All needs will be met. A perfect world.
On paper, in theory, it sounds great. Here is the problem. It never gets out of the socialism phase. The violence. The forced situations upon the people by the government. The control the government doesn't want to give up. And we see this happening when we hear "Obamacare". We are forced to give up our earned money to pay for people who to be quite honest don't deserve it. We see this happening when we hear "free college". It isn't free. Even ding-dong said that, yet she didn't know she said it. The regulations. The forced "acceptance" and "tolerance" of things that go against our beliefs. The higher taxes. The impersonalization/depersonalization of life. The lessening of any morality system. The blaming of those who actually work hard for everyone's troubles. It can never get to communism because socialism cannot work.
All we have to do is look at the present next. Venezuela---CNN, FOX, NY Times, all you have to do is Google "Venezuela" and "chaos" and you get tons of articles all saying the same thing; Venezuela is not working. And this is what "AOC" is trying to bring to us. All because she has no idea.
All we have to do is look at the future now. #millennialliberal, LOL, who dis, Instagram, earbuds...

Don't you think that the Millennials are a product of our lack of personal commitment to their upbringing? Aren't the millennials are fulfilled of 2 Timothy, 4:3-4 and sign of the times that we are in?
Not one thing in that sentence I disagree with.
