You say they are different. That’s true. But that doesn’t make it any less genuine or felt.
I may have been 12 when the economy turned sour in 2006. But so what? I can Guarantee you, I felt that just as much as anyone else.
Good for you that you were insulated from protests and strikes. I cant say I was insulated from an economy that collapsed. I didn’t lose a job. Because I didn’t have one. But that doesn’t really seem to matter at all when I was affected by it just like everyone else.
I didn’t lose a job. But I had to eat oatmeal 3 times a day. I chose to sell my stuff and do extra work to provide some extra money to my household. Because times were rough. So tell me again how me being a kid matters?
Are you really arguing that having no actual responsibilities is the same as having the weight of a collapsing world on your shoulders? Having been a kid, then a teenager, and now an adult, I can’t even comprehend how someone can seriously make this argument.
You’re might be thinking of Y2K and I’m talking about the Dotcom crash in the year 20000 where people like me lost our jobs.
Your experiences are valid, just different because you were a child during most of it. Even subprime you were just 14.
I also have memories of things my parents went through like nuclear protests, strikes, things like that, but I was more insulated to them as a child.

No. That is not what I’m arguing. Would you like to read my comment again and apply more than a kindergarten level of reading comprehension?
