Millennials, Gen Z committing fewer violent crimes than previous generations of youth
Probably due to the absence of lead that the previous generation got due to leaded gas emissions.
And maybe microplastics have the opposite effect. But this is just speculation, and afaik no sources support this.
Edit: I dunno why I got downvoted. Maybe I should be more specific that my claim, "maybe microplastics have the opposite effect", has no support. I didn't mean OP's claim was unsupported.
Millennials are so lazy they can't even commit acts of violence... Smh
They are killing the murder industry
I mean we're not bothered to do anything nowadays. Not even bothered to commit crime. Why kill people irl which would lead to court and having to defend yourself and whatnog when you can just chill and do it in a video game with no consequence?
