I think they’re asking why all of Lemmy doesn’t like jokes, not specifically the asklemmy community.

Oh we’re well aware of who you are, you’re the last generation of boomerism.

Forgotten generation title doesn’t last when the next generation doesn’t forget you.

I know 2/3 of those events, I’m also not American and have my own countries events to remember.

Also I 100% doubt any Zoomer (or anyone else) today will remember 90% of this stuff in 30 years either.

And by 1995 we already had search engines and could look up information. WebCrawler, Lycos, Alta Vista, Jeeves, Dogpile, Yahoo, etc.

You seem to think the 90s and 2000s were some technological dark age on par with the 80s.

You literal 7 year old is not 5. Of those events you listed, the Troubles is the only one I was over 4 years to experience the end portion.

Go ask your 7 year old niece what Bombs Over Baghdad by OutKast is about and see if they don’t guess the War On Terror/OIL.

That isn’t the issue, by the new millennium, it’s millennials were well and truly getting all our knowledge digitally.

Honestly you sound more like a Xenial or Gen X’er, because your experiences sound so outdated.

Have you ever use the Dewey Decimal System, card catalog, and microfiche to look up information?

No, I’m a millennial I used the Internet.

What an idiotic take.

Mate we were literal children during these events.

Much like Zoomers are young adults or teens today, look at our teenage years and young adulthood and focus on those events. No Zoomer was politically motivated at 4 years old nor was I during the Rodney King Riots.

We fucking had global protests with hundreds of millions standing up against the 1% and American wars.

We were and still are well aware of the problems around today as well.

Never.

You’ll never hear from the people who don’t miss it because it’s nothing for us to talk about, so it seems like everyone only wants them back when in reality the vast majority don’t care.

You’ve said that twice on two separate posts now.

Either way, there is nothing fear mongering about this title, the article even confirms the title directly from AMD themselves.
