Read the full paragraph at least..

No, I don't think I need to read past your justification for why it's okay for you to do something you chided me for. Unless, of course, it started with, "you're right, I shouldn't have done that."

Literally the second sentence. Your generation has this lazy cancellation thing that you do where you tune shit out just because you don’t want to put in the work to understand.

Nope, that also wasn't an admission that you did the same thing you accused me of doing. Also, how am I able to 'cancel' anyone here? I'm not a mod. I'm not persecuting you. My god, what a whiner.

Like I said. One of your generation’s main form of cancellation is tuning-out. It’s what your brain does after being fried by an endless stream of bite-sized social media content. You tune in to your echo chambers and listen to more of the same propaganda. You should have gone through all the dystopian novels in school. It would have helped explain what’s happening.

What is my generation? This should be good.

You strike me as Gen-Z.

Oh, I strike you as Gen-Z, do I? You were certain a post ago. Which is it, a guess or a certainty?

A wager

Okay, what do you wager than I'm Gen-Z? I accept PayPal.

Wagers don’t need to include money. I simply wager that you are Gen-Z. I could be wrong, but it is a strong assertion. I figured you would say otherwise if I was wrong. I’m off the the gym, but am happy to continue debating later.

Coward.

I didn’t say that I had high confidence in that assessment; just enough to roll with it and possibly get corrected. Also, my dive logs would paint a different picture than cowardice. This is more like I don’t take stupid bets. I can hypothesize though that you are likely not a millennial unless at the tail-end because you immediately went to criticize my choice of language as not being PC and/or being a form of dog whistling. I then swooped in with context. It’s a writing trick to catch the reader’s attention.
