It was a Millennial gamer who leaked some of America’s secret belligerent plans to stick it to Russia. I’m disappointed it wasn’t an anti-war lefty but but I guess they wouldn’t have access. And there are so few left. Most have drank the Make the World Safe for Democracy Koolaid.

So the Supremes sabotaged the Clean Water Act. Sorry, Millennials and Gen Z. Who needs wetlands? I doubt they will notice anyway.

Listened to another anti-Chinese rant from Speaker McCarthy. Secret Chinese labs in California? Not on my radar screen yet. But I do feel really sorry for oblivious Millennials being shepherded into war, cold or otherwise, especially Chinese-American Millennials. By the way, I’m just going to toss Gen Z in with the Millennials since they are hard to differentiate. All that generational pigeonholing is dubious at best anyway.

From the NYT: “ Ramaswamy, the Millennial Candidate, Has a Lot to Say About His Generation”
A quote: “ Millennials like himself, the entrepreneur and political newcomer explained to an overflowing audience in Pella, Iowa, “are starved for purpose, meaning and identity”; robbed of those anchors that made America great — “faith, patriotism, hard work, family”; and stumbling from one cult to another — race, gender, sexuality and climate activism. The government “systematically lies to us,” he said. He told another gathering in Indianola, “We face a nonzero risk that the United States of America could cease to exist,” obliterated by the blossoming alliance of Russia and China.”
“Faith, patriotism, hard work, family” were robbed from us? Here I thought they self-destructed. But not to worry, because as he hints in the last line, a good war could bring that all back, plus purpose, meaning, and identity. For the survivors, anyway. If there are any.

From the NYT: “ More Wall Street Firms Are Flip-Flopping on Climate. Here’s Why”. Yes, Wall Street is backing up from a (lip service?) commitment to addressing the environment. They are bending from pressure from (who else?) their Republican cronies in Congress, as in “The fracturing of Climate Action 100+ was a victory for Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, who has led a campaign against companies pursuing E.S.G. goals, shorthand for environmental, social and governance factors.” Sorry, Millennials, the climate is not my problem, I’ll be gone soon. It’s yours and your children’s. Yet you still seem politically inert, or even jumping on the MAGA crazy train!

So this is the choice the Boomers are giving the Millennials, again: A crazy guy or a senile guy in the WH. What we may be producing is a horde of cynical Millennials. Not that they shouldn’t be. Grandson of Dredd is one, and he has nothing but disgust with our political system, and claims none of his friends think it’s worth fighting for. Don’t worry, if push comes to shove I’m sure they will meekly go off to kill or be killed. Young men always end up dying for old men. And that includes Chinese young men.

So far, I think Nicole Shanahan is awesome! Besides not being an old white guy, she is super anti-war and an environmental wacko! Right up my alley! And she has a goofy laugh!
