As a member of gen X I've noticed a few things that I hope younger people have also observed regarding my generation.
Back in the 1990s, we received massive amounts of establishment propaganda mainly via Mtv, Holywood, the MSM in general that sold us the idea that being a leftist degenerate is somehow rebellion. Honestly, though there is absolutely nothing rebellious about accepting homosexuality, transgenderism, using marijuana, shilling for censorship "hate speech" laws or voting for globalization. All of the above are now establishment positions.
Many of those in my generation actually believe that people like Henry Rollins are fighting the establishment. It's such a shallow grug brained meme.
Let's be honest. Society tells people that society tells people that traditional morality is admirable. Thus to be a "rebel" one should agree with all of the establishment talking heads and embrace a neoliberal ideology.
I see a similar propaganda push happening to gen Z. The MSM pushes Greta the climate change girl, shows like "Euphoria" on HBO and various other "rebellious" notions but will gen Z fall for this propaganda like generation X?
i have never met a gen-xer who wasn't a huge faggot
Austin Watson
>hurr durr GenX propaganda was left-leaning Being anti-establishment isn't a left/right issue. it's a personal one. Most of the music was about making your own decisions on your own terms, and coming to your own conclusions; it's only perceived as a left/right issue in retrospect.
Learn how music works, faggot.
Ryder Baker
Speak for yourself. Im gen x and everything i saw growing up made me realize jews and niggers are the greatest threat to freedom aside from marxism.
Andrew Powell
now ya have faggot the reason y u don't hear our voice is because we're honest which according to faggots like u is prejudice
Jose Davis
GenX was about being in a subculture. Might be the first time America had gone into having all these subcultures instead of one main dominant culture. GenX was the first generation to openly embrace race mixing and homosexuality. My irl GenX friend has a black flag tattoo lmao.
Joshua Stewart
It was, I think, the first time establishment celebs pushed "rebellion", drugs, etc. while still having secret families and normal lives of their own. They all got married and had children, despite their public image. (except for ol rolly there)
Dylan Brooks
Not true. All music is ALLOWED to be published by corporations and conglomerates as well as Video. In the 80’s and 90’s there were no computers for genuine organic music publication
Ryan Young
Gen Xers and boomers are the reason things are as bad as they are now
I'm genx , most of my old friends are dead, this world is poison. We grew up in flames and die in pain.
Jason Kelly
Fuck boomers but I hate to break it to you sweetie but Gen X went thru so much bullshit during the 80s and 90s that once we learned what it really was we became the most redpilled gen since the depression era You millennials are just angsty and think you know everything
John Ortiz
you are just a faggot, trust me
Bentley Morgan
I'm GenX and fucking hate millennials. You're all a bunch of entitled little whiny bitches.
Every damned Millennial my company hires comes in day one wanting to be the president and won’t listen to anyone at all. They swear there the greatest thing since sliced bread
Brayden Smith
If you actually had ever played music successfully even if it was in a small amount you would know that most people rep leftist movement even in the 90s because they knew it was an easy way to ascend the ladder
Everytime MTV shoved a microphone at Cobain, Vedder, Cornell, etc., all they got in response was "grunge/alternative/media is just made-up bullshit to brainwash people". Hell, even Fiona Apple gave a "showbiz is complete bullshit, don't believe any of this crap" speech at the VMAs.
It was the most anti-propaganda anti-idolatry "think for yourself" cultural movement I've ever seen and I'm shocked to this day the Illuminati Lizardpeople even let it happen.
The REAL propaganda is all the phony 90's nostalgia shit "lol remember Flannel?" we see now.
I remember some kid showed up to school in '92 with a brand-new flannel shirt exactly once, because the entire high school, all cliques - goths jocks rapkids artists etc., united in harmony to mercilessly mock that ONE kid for being a trend following mindless poseur.
He publicly burned the shirt in the park as soon as the school day was over and we all cheered.
Michael Jenkins
What kills me is that we all grew up listening to Dead Kennedy’s and Black Flag and Early rap music and thought at that time. Wow So edgy and cool. Now as we have grown we have learned it was all controlled by corporations and well crafted liberal bullshit propaganda. The closest thing we had to a real message was if we went so deep underground musically that we had to be subjected to either satanic music garbage or street corner demo tape rap music
Adrian Ross
every single even slightly white nation on the globe is being injected with literal subhuman trash
This. I was saying its edgy gen xer gaytheist lolbergs who are even more annoying last year when the boomer meme started off.
Chase Moore
They fooled Gen X into thinking they were rebelling when they really weren’t. Contain, Vedder, and Cornell were all multi millionaires telling kids to “the media is bullshit maaan” when they lived in mansions.
Rage against the Machine is the perfect example of what Gen X are, fake rebellion
David Gonzalez

Jackson Myers
GenX were never as degenerate as Boomers. The birthrate and divorce rates favour X over Boomers. Home schooling x10 for GenX parents compared to latchkey Boomer patents. Boomers now lead STD rates despite their age. GenX was amazingly resilient to Boomer propaganda, but Millenial golden child bought into it. Those last, late Boomer births in their late 30s and 40s were the first millenials and spoiled and made into Boomer clones. Z will be fine as they were raised by X parents.

Gen x here, was made to question everything because of the indoctrination which was going on, mainly from the right then but from the left now... two sides same coin
Xavier Martin
I've been really into live music for over a decade. Was never a lefty fag but I like drugs, funky bass and screaming guitar. Anyway: all artists are fucking faggots. The same thing that makes them creative and willing to live in a van with 4 other unshowered dudes also makes them fucking weirdo faggots. There are some exceptions but as a general rule if you want to enjoy music or whatever you will have to accept the fact the people who create it are complete braindead faggots. I forgot to mention that as well. Outside of their particular talent these people are usually as dumb as a fuckin cow
Zachary Jenkins
Gen x is nothing. We weren't born with computers in our hands. All we had was music and tv. We thought a revolution was possible. Now every one is politically affiliated. We hated politicians.
Nathaniel Edwards
For all you millennials and Boomers and Zoomers. Ya done fucked up thinking that Gen X kids are whiny trash. We’re not whiny. We are angry. We watched the Boomers burn this world and put it in debt to the point of no return. Unrecoverable without a reset. And guess what. When it all comes crashing down you millennial fuckers are gonna run and hide and is Gen X fuckers are going to have to be the ones to put it all back together
Noah Lopez
You faggots aren’t doing shit, you haven’t done shit since you were born and you’ll die off quietly just like the silent generation.
Nathan Smith

Your whole generation is made of hippies
Jaxson Bailey
That’s where your wrong. All those super cool young leaders everyone is drooling over. Yeah Gen X. We have just begun to take our places in leadership roles. Oh I forgot. You were told that as soon as you graduate you will lead. You were lied to. It takes decades to transition from one generation to the next. Especially when the Boomers won’t let go of power and there’s so many of them
Parker Lewis
it is related to "non-conformist" ideas, the issue is that they don't realize they are conforming to a set of ideas already packaged as non-conformist, thus they are conformists who don't know it. for example: >gas the kikes, race war now outside of here, that seems outside the norm, yet here it is a meme that i am regurgitating to fit in.
Leftist invented rebellion you absolute mental midget
Gabriel Cook
No boomers had subcultures like greasers and hippies
Henry Gutierrez
I wouldnt brag about that if i were you
Parker Carter
The concept of "generations" is propaganda in itself. I have more in common with an 80-year-old Iowa farmer than a Jew or nigger my age.
Brayden James
As an older millenial I bump heads with my peers all the time over this stuff. They cannot fathom that the leftist shit is the establishment and they are the brown shirts they claimed to hate.
Dylan Campbell
Boomers and their offspring are coddled faggots. Millenials who are worth a shit had to compete with previous generations pet shitskins offspring in a depression, right as they went into the job market.
Zachary Lee
Gen X built Jow Forums
Luke Rivera
You’ll continue to do what the boomers have done because you’re all braindead sheep that spent their entire lives staring at TV screens and thinking you were super cool and special because of the fucking kike media that was fed to you.
If anything, Gen X being in charge will make the world a more degenerate place because most of you fully support faggotry

Jack Walker
It’s rediculous. I work in the Permian Basin where one wrong move in a gas plant can kill everyone and these young guys walk in there thinking they have it all figured out because google told them how to be a gas plant operator. They refuse to listen to experience and constantly make uninformed bad decisions that they created in there own minds. Then when you have to confront them they just get super pissy and start screaming racism
Cameron Stewart
Only milenials competed with previous generations. Holy myopic retardation.
Josiah Roberts
Right but not everyone was in one. Starting in gen x it seems that everyone had to be in some sort of subculture.

The brown shirts were the establishment. Brown shirt comes from pre world war 2 Germany. National Socialists that were following right along with Hitlers plan like pawns. So there’s that
Caleb Cooper

Austin Flores
I work in R&D with a lot genxers and they seemed perfectly functional to me, though they are all Indian and Chinese.
The Weimar Republic was the establishment. The SA (brownshirts) formed because the National Socialists couldnt speak in public without being attacked by communists and anarchists. In this scenario the blue pilled establishment goons are the communists and anarchists. Exactly what GenX bought into.
John Murphy
Old man shares wisdom.
I loved "punk" bands like Bad Religion. I thought it quite odd that literally all media and government funded the "rebellion" against people who they claimed had power.
Look at Handmaid's Take. A Dystopian novel about rebelling against people who have NO FUCKING POWER!
Do they seriously check under their bed for Amish people before going to bed?
Want to see real rebellion? Take the position that will get you fired for even ASKING about it.
Actually when they put microphones in front of Vedder he would often speak in favor of abortion and Cobain in favor of Feminism. Soungarden would play "Copkiller" live.
Andrew Baker

Yeah, I'm Gen X too and absolutely hate millenials. They were all raised to be insufferable Faggots who were told they were the most special Unicorns who should be entitled to everything. These fuckers voted for obama twice and now that Trump is President they are 24/7 butthurt crybabies.
Nope. The Nazis were the socialists and controlled opposition. Ya need to learn that the left/right concept of Hitler was he was bad/good when in fact he was funded by both sides. He was a damned nut job that had great speaking skills and the true world leaders fed him what he needed to grow. You want to know what true anti establishment looks like. Find the picture of the one guy who wouldn’t salute during the nazi rally.

Benjamin Martin
Boomers pushed race mixing starting sixty years ago, and were the forefront of the homo movement.
Angel Hughes
This is true. The closest thing Vedder had to a good opinion was opposing the Iraq war, but that's just because he hated Bush.
Before the music industry collapsed in 2006 (from which it never recovered) You had to pretend to be Commie or Satanist to get a deal from Jewish Record execs. Also throw in some Jewish kid on rythym guitar for an easy record deal. They WILL push you. It worked for the Strokes.
It's great that Hollywood and MTV are now essentially powerless as girls watch Korean drama and boys watch anime. It's a serious improvement.

>In the 80’s and 90’s there were no computers for genuine organic music publication
In the 80's and 90's people would go on street corners and pass out their mixtapes and their poorly produced "albums" on audio cassette. If you got a record deal everybody assumed that you were "selling out." It's kind of like how everybody today knows that having a blue checkmark on Twitter makes you an establishment shill at best, if not an outright glownigger.
Matthew Evans
They must be desperate to send in goons to discredit any talking points that may veer away from established opinion so aggressively
Grayson Reed
Nah, I wouldn't challenge you to a fight, I'd just bitch slap fags like you because you're the type who would get butthurt at anyone wearing a Trump shirt.

Millennials are objectively, and unequivocally the worst generation in human history. They have contributed less to humanity than even the australopithecines. They are a net negative for civilization.
