      The term "snowflake generation", exclusively used by middle-class, middle-aged columnists, is the biggest pile of bullshit going.

      Just saw it used YET AGAIN in an article about young people. Until you give us space in the media to respond & discuss our issues, back off.

      Young people have been shafted by their "elders". You ruined our job opps, you drove up our rent, you are making our education worthless.

      We complain too much? All our friends have emigrated, the cost of our degree has doubled, and we can never afford to move out.

      Stop sneering at us because we're embarrassing you for your shitty views. Stop trying to put us down like we're stupid kids.

      If you must criticise young people, be more constructive than a lazy "generation snowflake". Or stop punching down. Reach out to us.
