Gen Z’ protesters lead global wave of generational discontent


Protests, rebellions, even revolutions by the young are erupting all over the world. Last year the Bangladeshi government was overthrown. This year has already seen revolutions in Nepal and Madagascar. The Peruvian president has been removed by Congress, but the protesters in Peru wants the interim government to resign too. Protests by the young has erupted against the governments of the Phillippines, Indonesia and Morocco. The protests has alot in common, they tend to be against corruption, low wages, lack of services, and systems the young see no future for themselves in. This trend might yet spread to more countries and it might lead to the collapse of more governments around the Globe.
 
Just too many people.
 
That's always been the problem.
Not always but younger people have usually been unhappy with the older people running things
 
George Soros is behind all these protests, count on it!

It's not just how the older people run things, but also with some sense of entitlement. Gen X is stuck in between caring for or supporting the earlier generation and the next generation. Their stress is compounded and their resources are stretched. It's not surprising there is discontent.
 
Sandwich generation era SUCKS.
 
I always say : as childs we served our parents, then we served our children and now we are serving our parents again. We had some bad luck with choosing our generation.
We millennials often think we invented cynicism, we tend to foget Gen X was born with the insight that life is meaningless, something we had to learn the hard way.
