Baby Boomers practically invented the participation trophy. It’s why millennials got so many. And I’ve literally never heard a Baby Boomer complain about them. I’ve only ever heard about Gen X folks and below complain about them.
I guess Fox News is made up of and watched by gen x then?
I wonder who have millennials participation trophies; it’s not like they bought it for themselves 🤔
Yeah it’s not like you have to interact with a variety of different parents! But yeah it’s definitely the military GOP boomers and not progressives going overboard🤦♂️
I think you’re absolutely wrong (anecdote incoming after my question), but let’s assume for a second that you’re correct. Why were the millennials as children blamed when they’re not at trophy shops buying their own trophies?
Anecdote, as promised: I grew up in a very small, very conservative town. They love Supply Side Jesus and the Prosperity Gospel, and they hate the welfare queens that they were sure stole every dime of their tax money. In the 90s they got way into making sure THEIR kid got trophies while simultaneously complaining that all kids got trophies.
I don’t believe the millennials, who were children in the 90s, bought their own trophies. I don’t believe it was only progressives thinking their children were snowflakes. I also don’t think you’ll care because it doesn’t square with your beliefs and you don’t seem like the kind of person that’s intelligent enough to process any new information that isn’t about Jesus getting tougher on crime.
Don’t get me started on the statues of Confederacy losers
