Translation: you'll become more conservative when you have children and own a home

I have a child and own a home, and am a member of the lost generation. Fuck the Republican Party and any conservative who believes their selfish bullshit should outweigh the greater good of others.

I agree with everything you said except, im confused about the use of the term lost generation. That’s a generation born in the 1880-1900s.

My mistake if so. I was under the impression that term was used for those of us born between 1978 or so thru 1983.

In any case, I don’t see myself in the same vein as GenX nor Millennial, at least stereotypically.

I had an feeling you actually meant GenX but I just wanted to make sure. I know that GenX is often thought of as the latchkey generation. I’m on the edge of GenX/millennial.

I just see myself as apart of the β€œ boomerang β€œ generation where I’ll be worse off than my parents. Fun times.
