I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but… I don’t identify as “Gen-Z.”
This label technically applies to me, but if everybody else gets to make up whatever “identifiers” they want with no questions asked, then I’m gonna do the same thing.
I have the nothing in common with these people and, quite frankly, I find them to be overwhelmingly detestable. Why? Maybe it’s because my mom never dropped me on my head when I was a baby, but who’s to say…
Now… let’s get to the “good” stuff (if you can call it that).
Alex Stein paid Penn State a visit and was met with… let’s just say… spitting rage.
From the New York Post:
Shocking video footage caught an enraged woman spitting at right-wing provocateur Alex Stein as he mocked the protests that shut down his show at Penn State University.
The BlazeTV personality caught the vile moment as he mingled with those rallying to stop the Uncensored America event also featuring Gavin McInnes, a co-founder of both the Proud Boys and the Vice media empire.
As Stein walked through the throng of angry protesters, he focused on one woman who aggressively flipped the bird at him while she also repeatedly screamed: “I f—ing hate you! I hope you f—ing die!”
Smiling as he filmed her screaming behind him, Stein quipped: “I love you — I think you’re a very nice woman.”
She responded by spitting at him from inches away, leaving a disgusting, several-inches-long loogie snaking across his suit jacket’s left shoulder — then flipping the bird again and screaming another “F–k you!”
“Oh, she spit on me!” Stein screeched, howling with laughter, while later stressing the act constituted “assault.”
He also quipped that it would make lefty New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez jealous, writing: “Sorry AOC I’ve got a new boo.”
Penn State said the event had to be canceled “due to the threat of escalating violence.”

I’ve seen plenty of Twitter comments from lefties that essentially say that Stein got what he deserved for riling the students up.
Interestingly, that take on the situation touches on the underlying issue… just in the wrong way.
People are gonna grind on your nerves. That’s kind of a given. People you know, people you love, and people you’ve never met. As an adult, you have to know how to deal with that in a way that’s not… you know… disgusting.
The real problem we have is that the world has collectively decided that sheltering young people should take precedence over teaching them how to function as contributing members of society. The results of that are… not looking too hot.
The majority of “Gen-Z” consists of a bunch of entitled, b*tchy, rageful a-holes who can’t function if they don’t get their way.
Some stellar parenting has gone on in the last few decades, and we’re just beginning to see the fruits of the non-existent labor.
On the other hand, if we’re looking at this through the lens of the children being raised by the public education system, then we’re seeing the fruits of some back-breaking labor… but that’s beside the point.
It used to be that children were taught to treat people with kindness and respect. I guess my mom forgot to include the “but only to people you like and agree with” part…
That kind of defeats the purpose of kindness, doesn’t it? If it was easy, everybody would do it.

You can’t relate to Gen-Z, LT, because you are a reasonable human being who was taught to respect others. Most of “your’ generation never had the benefit of such wise training in their youth, and, as you say, we are beginning to see the fruits of that in our increasingly un-civil society.
That’s kind of you to say 🙂
I suppose it’s growing increasingly easier to be unreasonable, but I have this revulsion to the easy way of doing things that I can’t quite explain.
It’s my way of sticking it to the man, I guess… a modernized version of Thoreau’s Civil Disobedience, if you will… 😉
If she keeps it up, her face will freeze that way.* (If it hasn’t already.)
*Typical old-fashioned mom saying.
That was definitely one that I heard a lot growing up!!
Coincidentally, she looks like quite a few of the kids I go to class with… 😉
