Obviously a whole generation didn't become sellouts. As usual it's easier to target a group with bigotry when faced with problems out of our direct control. I find this ageism/generational-ism as tiresome as any other flavour of intolerance, and it's entirely unproductive.

Obviously. But look at the idiot I was replying to in the first place. This guy still thinks it was young white women who voted Trump in.

Is it bad generational statements you don't like, or is it bad generational statements made about a specific generation?

Yeah, it goes both ways, and young women voting trump in is just factually wrong as you say.
