Topic	Does it feel like "Millennial" is becoming an ageist slur?
TrojanPony 01/31/18 8:51:22 AM #1:	Every time you look at the news you see bullshit like "Millennials are doing this ;.;" "Millennials are killing that ;.;" "Millennials aren't wasting money on diamonds mined by slaves ;.;". Every single time it's said, it's always in a negative manner that attacks and insults a specific age group. If you replaced "Millennials" with "Jews" it would sound like a nazi rag. I for one have started considering it to be a slur, since it is used overwhelmingly in a negative and insulting manner towards a group that have no control over their age. --- "GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site.
