Yes, I knew what you meant. Just having a little fun with the imprecise language by which you described yourself.
You do realize that you can get this information right on DP.

Of course, its registered users versus active ones.
Um, that is not what college / university is about. Is it too late to get your money back? On the other end, professors love to encourage meaningful discussion. If its completely off the wall with no support except that it came out of your head (or other places) you will get the same kind of dismissal from a PhD that you would get for unsubstantiated, off the wall arguments and propositions. Do you have a history of this?
We're at Post 116.
The counts are getting more mixed. With 108 voting in the poll.
3 (3%) are Silent Generation.
43 (40%) are Babyboomers
33 (31%) are Generation X.
28 (26%) are Generation Y/Millennials.
1 (1 %) is Generation Z/Boomlets.
I am pleased to see that we do have some members of the Silent Generation actively participating in the Forum. Kudos!
However, (WARNING: Personal Opinion at this point)
I also note that many of our "usual suspects" (several of the most "progressive/trolling") and also a few other relatively active members have not voted.
Perhaps it's because of the descriptor used for "Millennials" which may have been off-putting, and for that I apologize. It is the "standard use" description meant to be tongue-in-cheek and not to be intentionally insulting. :3oops:
Still, IMO while some did not respond simply because they may have missed the poll, several have previously self-identified as falling into one of the categories between 1965 - Present.
I believe that some simply don't want this to be confirmed, because several also appear to be the most "woke" Forum participants and might prefer not to show this could have something to do with how they have been "educated/indoctrinated" during that period.
IMO that should not have been a problem if they truly believe this is actually a positive trend which should be emulated and lauded as progressive advancement. END of Personal Opinion.
As you can see there are THOUSANDS of "members" listed in that chart, but the vast majority (50,000+) are either non-active or in some cases no longer members (banned).
We have a couple of hundred or so who are actively participating, and as my OP states, I am seeking info on those who ARE still actively participating.
Us old leftists might look stupid and then you take away our spotlight by saying something stupid. Respect your elders child.
5. Generation Y/ Millennials, born between 1981 – 2000. "They have been told over and over again that they are special, and they expect the world to treat them that way. They do not live to work, they prefer a more relaxed work environment with a lot of hand holding and accolades."
I'm a boomer baby.
I could already guess by how you post.
MAGA goes well past the Greatest, and back to our roots. Yeah the Greatest look great compared to Millennials who don't seem to have a clue outside their phones. But the Welfare State and massive debt came from them.
How did they create those states from mommies basement or from school?
They voted for them.
Ah...I see....so these cellphone addicted lazy idiots voted in the folks that created welfare and such, then voted everything else in to existence once they did?....Dayum, talk about power,
The same generation was running Congress. Are you having difficulties? And they didn't have cellphone in the 1960's when this stuff was implemented.
They were?....I suppose I am having difficulties with believing your BS, as I do with anything easily proven false. The Senate has 54 Republicans, 44 Democrats, and 2 Independents, who both caucus with the Democrats. The average age of Members of the House at the beginning of the 114th Congress was 57.0 years; of Senators, 61.0 years. They do not age in reverse.
You've proven nothing false. You seem to also not understand which generation I'm talking about. I'm talking about the 89th Congress as one example of that generation.
