Boomers and Gen Xers love to bring up how millennials would get destroyed on the beaches of normandy or whatever

as if they didn't lose every single war their generation engaged in lmao. Ya'll forget Vietnam or Iraq?

Every generation has its proving ground. We’re still in one right now.

Also people talk a lot of crap about situations they’ve never been in themselves, like wars.

@WintaTheAngle yep. everyone thinks they'll be some kind of steely, action hero in a war. movies have truly poisoned everyone's head

@NoahB You’re not wrong. I’ve known men who are conflict zone veterans trash cinemas for the stupidity they show on screen. Hollywood has frequently dismissed military advisers, veterans and eye witnesses because “it didn’t make a good movie”. And people seem to believe everything they see.

Every generation has its moment. Because real life isn’t heros and villains it’s just people doing the best they can with what they’ve got. It’s always been that way.

Maybe no one is good at war... or should be.

@MarkPaul for once we agree

What's interesting about Vietnam is that it were memebers of America's so called greatest generation that bore the responsibility for making it such a disaster.
