Another Really Shitty Piece on PC: Tim Kreider: Go Ahead, Millennials: Destroy Us"

Egad this is terrible...except for the part about the left being the censorious and oppressive end of the spectrum now. That's certainly true.
   I do think youth has certain cognitive advantages; it tends to be less blase and set in its ways. It's also almost completely lacking in wisdom, good sense, the ability to engage in dispassionate analysis and perspective.
   And: yes, transgenderism is a fad. And a fad that makes no sense whatsoever. It isn't about breaking out of gender roles; it's about reinforcing them. In fact, it's about turning generalizations into definitions. Stop pretending that defining women as people who wear dresses is some kind of act of liberation. Jesus Christ. That nonsense makes conservatism downright liberal by comparison. And, more importantly, transgenderism, like the rest of the PC train wreck, is about subordinating truth to political dogma.

   And as for taking our guns, destroying all our works, and all that...well...molon labe, kiddies.

   But look: just stop pretending that a couple of well-coiffed, media-savvy rich kids from Florida are going to change the world. I'm sorry that they went through what they went through. And I am, indeed, interested in doing something about mass murders. But being photogenic doesn't make you worth listening to, and no amount of pimping by CNN will change that. I'm happy to have a national conversation about this stuff, and I'm happy to hear the input of people who have actually lived through such things. It's worth listening to their reports of their experiences; they had them and we didn't. But having had those experiences doesn't make them any better at reasoning about principles and policies.
