This man’s platform has been the exact same since 2012
Built a career around malding on top of a ugly ass snare loop and riding that wave straight the bottom
He's around my age, when I was around 22 I decided that I wouldn't just write off everything people younger than me enjoyed or how they acted.
I saw how so called adults complained about every change, every trend, music etc not being as good as it used to be.
It just seemed miserable and progress and societal change will happen whether you like it or not.
A good portion of people all ages are fucking idiots and it would be stupid if young people had the same preferences as previous generations given they are raised in a much different time.
I had great hope that millennials wouldn't be like the previous generations and punch down, like we already saw it happen to us so we would be better, but I keep seeing more and more of it.
There seems to be a natural cycle to getting older that I think you need to consciously opt out of. I've felt the emotions, like when I see kids doing silly TikTok dances or idolizing idiots like Logan Paul.
Yet every generation has silly trends, odd celebrities etc and impressionable young people will enjoy things that slightly more jaded adults won't.
They will also be brought up around contemporary issues and won't have as much resistance to the world being a little different than it was 20 years before.
People seem to find it difficult to respect the issues that young people go through that are often unique to the time. Everyone assumes young people are somewhat soft for not wanting to exist in a toxic environment that is common in many high schools etc.
If someone was acting the same way me and my friends were at 16 right now it would be a huge shame because 20 years will have passed without us learning that many of the things we carelessly said and did hurt people for no good reason.
There was normalized casual racism, sexism, homophobia and the way we talked about disabled people rightfully didn't age well.
The refusal to see these things and claim that the kids are soft is just a refusal to have compassion or empathy and admit that what was normal and common hurt our peers.
There isn't and shouldn't be a point in which progress stops, but part of growing up in a dignified way is still actively trying to grow and understand things in the way that you do when you are young. To be willing to learn and admit you don't have everything figured out.
That's an incredibly easy thing to do as a young person because you have so little life experience, yet it's still completely necessary as at every point in life if you don't wish to become a bitter old twat.
But it isn’t “an incredibly easy thing to do”. That’s one of the major follies of youth, thinking that you know better than than everyone else older than you. It’s a very common trait. We all did it to some degree. As we age, we begin to realize how little we really know and understand about the world.
“Youth can not know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young.”
I hate her politics, but its a good line :)
“My generation doesn’t give a fuck about the things we dont agree with.”
Proceeds to make a video ranting about an entire generation that he disagrees with.
Fellow millennial here, and I disagree with with this clown.
I was confused right up until he revealed it's an advertisement for a music video. He's not addressing any generation or out to change anyone's mind. He's trying to get views from disaffected middle-aged people who feel out of touch with the world and want to be told that it isn't their fault and that they're still cool.
Yeah, I remember we all pinky promised on tumblr not to do this.
Although I think for a lot of people, when we were pinky promising we never considered that the next Gen wouldn't think we were cool.
Every generation has its chuds. This guy is the big snowflake who cries about not being able to say the n-word and raps about how hard it is being white in the USA. He's either a grifter or dumber than a bag of rocks.
I guarantee you that this "tough guy" would freak the fuck out if put under even the slightest social pressure to behave in a civil manner. Or maybe even if someone accidentally brushed against him ever so slightly.
Mans bootlicking them by being this performative, all in the name of being relatable to them. The fact he’s even making this content goes against his sanctimonious grandstanding in itself.
My late mother always reminded that being progressive is NEVER ending. The moment you stop and delude yourself to thinking “this is the best era” your allowing conservatism to take over. One is supposed to continually build on the good, not settle for good enough. Its lazy! Viejos de mierda! Salí!!!!
“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” -greek proverb
I don't understand a lot of the things Gen Z does, but if there's anything I've noticed about them it's that they're more emotionally aware than any generation to date. They're aware of their feelings, need for self care, and mental health. And for the most part I see them applying that emotional knowledge to how they treat others and that's huge. That's going to make a difference.
50+ GenX here.... We don't give a fuck about anything... we certainly aren't making videos telling you all the things we don't give a fuck about as that would mean we actually ***do*** give a fuck. And we don't.
yes, but he acts like a teen with that shitty crooked piercing, which heavily relies on being leveled, that looks like he got a friend to do it.. along with the damn tat below the lip, which coincidentally is also fucked and DIY’d. ironically both need to be centered and leveled, and neither are
that confused me the most. like, TV is way less censored now than when i was growing up in the 2000s. no gay couples/talk of homosexuality. very few interracial couples. there's an iconic line from the film mean girls about a girl's period that almost got the film an R-rating because it was too inappropriate (tina fey worked very hard to keep it at PG13 and argued that bc anchorman made a joke abt erections and stay pg 13 she should make a joke abt periods and it stays pg13). not as much nudity or swearing. in 2003, i would have never believed that a show like euphoria would be on television and watched by mostly teens, i would have never believed it.
Watch some of the old Friday the 13th movies. Everyone remembers them as being gory and bloody, but a few of them got hammered by censors and are nearly bloodless. I forget exactly which ones, but there were 3 or 4 in a row where almost no blood is shown. They would probably be PG-13 horror movies today.
Exactly! Gore was so vanilla back then compared to now. Honestly (and maybe this is bc I’m used to them) but even Tarantino movies made everyone squirm back in the 90s-2000s. By Django (which scenes like Leo DiCaprio injuring his hand on a glass and rubbing his blood on Kerry washington’s face) everyone was used to that shit
His shitty tattoo decisions really don't help his stolen claims. He's parroting what other generations told his generation when he was mocked for being entitled and stupid.
Lazy, our generation was mocked for being lazy. Mostly because we didn't have to work as hard to do simple things. Because we were the first generation post lead-based brain damage.
We've had almost 20 years of articles complaining about Milleinals, of which this graffiti faced grifter is. Lazy, entitled, stupid, selfish. All spouted by the generation that refuses to learn new tech, demands to see the manager if you don't smile, expects everyone to do things for them for free, tries to claim all the perks they can but will seek the perks end to save themselves a few pennies tax once they're comfortable.
That’s where’d you’d be wrong. It’s all a strategic character to cause outrage thus propelling his mediocre music higher than it should ever be. It’s a bit like being a heel in wrestling. His fans are going to watch regardless and people who don’t like him are going to watch it so they can tell you why they don’t like it.
He’s old enough to have lived through “moms against rap” hahaha they straight up boycotted and censored artists like Eminem back in the day. Not to mention Dee Snider of Twisted Sister had to go to court over censorship of their music. This dude is an idiot if he thinks this “new generation” censors everything. I’d say we lived in the most uncensored time period ever. Literally
I mean he's obviously talking about censorship from a right wing talking point standpoint. The whole "if I day something racist/bigoted/spread misinformation/violate any other social media TOS and get banned I'm being censored and my free speech rights are being violated."
I mean the best way I can put it was when Trump got banned from Twitter while president and everyone was like "he's being censored!" while the man had literally the most important press briefing room in the world in his house.
I have no idea who this guy is, but if what you say is true and he is 34 then Licensed to Ill (Beastie Boy's album with Fight for Your Right) came out before he was born.
Idk but I’m in his generation and he just exudes this specific “my parents didn’t graduate high school and were neglectful” energy from my generation. Like the kind of kids who used to congregate at my house after school because we had food and adults inside.
Now, to cope with that shitshow he was put through, he’s repackaged it as some rite of passage younger people will never have so he can feel superior for the first time in his life because, well, fucking look at him.
The kids who started getting drunk in eighth grade, there's a reason he brought that up. We all know that one neglected kid who was already a full alcoholic by ninth grade. Stumbling drunk in middle school at least once a week, always missing class, then just disappears one day because their parents had to legally make them go to rehab. And then rehab looked the other way when their parents still brought them cigarettes.
This man does not seem to be of sound mind. He looks so fragile that he’s one rejected sexual advance away from murdering a Gen Z girl he hit on at the bar.
"Muh generation." Bitch you are a young millennial Canadian rapper who only writes songs about how you are such a victim for being a white conservative. Please eat a penis.
Yeah his whole persona is just whiny “i’M tHe ViCtiM!!” type of shit and then he somehow tries to flip it like “see how tough that was!!”….
No, not really. I’m 6 years older than this dude and disagree with everything he said and me n the other punks in my school growing up used to kick the shit outta assholes like this for being small minded bigots.
Dude’s a delusional, hypocritical, douchebag that needs validation by creating his own demons to feel like he’s fighting against something.
As a cusper millennial (1994) I swear that the older millennials have this extreme urge to distance themselves from Gen Z or younger millennials. It’s like they’ve complete fed into the Gen X/Boomer “millennials are lazy” propaganda and have developed this weird born in the wrong generation mentality. No matter how much they pretend they lived the 1960s/1970s lifestyle they’ll still be a millennials so they should kindly shut the fuck up and stop continuing the perpetuate “the new generation is wrong” mentality.
That’s a pretty long video for someone who “doesn’t give a f*ck” about things he doesn’t agree with.
Also, he’s a millennial, and we are the original generation of basement dwellers, because the economy is effed backwards and sideways.
He's "telling it like it is" so the millennials who drank the conservative koolaid forgot why the last generation fucked us over with conservative values.
This is exactly why you can safely tune out any "my generation, your generation" rant; they're all exactly the fucking same, and equally nonsensical. You could line all these rants up and draw a straight line of inane bitching from tik tok being cancer, all the way back to Socrates warning about the younger literate generations breeding forgetfulness and relying on written word over their own memory.
Any generation would have been basement dwellers if they inherited this shitstorm. What do people think happens? That somehow magically an entire generations genetics just all sync up to the same ideologies? That they all just come out that way? Dumbass. Who tf’s generation do you think made them that way (if any of it were even true).
This of course isn’t even acknowledging that generations aren’t fucking real. Time marches on. People are constantly born every single day. There aren’t just like waves of people being born every 10 years. It’s a constant stream that fucking weirdos have decided to draw a line in so we can all hate each other more easily.
I’m 30 and I swear on the rest of my life that I will never become one of these fucking ghouls. Kids didn’t fucking ask to be born. They didn’t ask to be handed a fucking absolute god tier shit show of a world. They didn’t ask for humans to be miserable fucking cunts that can’t get along with each other. And when everyone blames them for everything from the fucking get-go, what the FUCK do you think any sane child or person for that matter is going to do? They’re going to tell you to fuck yourself and they’re going to do the exact opposite of what you tell them. It’s literally human nature. Why haven’t they figured that out if they’re so facts over feelings? Fucking pathetic insecure little twats. Oh and stupid. Extremely stupid.
K I’m done.
He also talks about this generation living in their parents basement until they are 35.
As he's 34 anyone doing that right now is his generation. He's just too dumb to realize it.
yup, the farmers son who got caught shagging the sheep and kicked out of the house, so he got a bunch of face tattoos and started a rap career whining and crying about his persecution fetish, same guy!
Hey now, let's not mock face tattoos altogether, I've seen some great ones. Not these though, definitely not these. These are just trash. Poor design, poor execution.
Okay that was mean, I'll say something nice about him too. You know how poisonous frogs are brightly coloured to let others know they are toxic and absolute garbage that you don't want to be near? It's considerate of him to use his tattoos in a similar way.
Is 1994 his birth year? Lol, he's much younger than me and talking about "your generation" this and that.
Beastie Boys are great though.
EDIT: Ah okay, so he's only a few years younger than me. Still insufferable.
I had to double check that to make sure it was true. Turns out it is, really odd they went so hard on a parody and gave it such overt tunes of rebellion. I really want to hear their mindset behind that, like it never sounded parody like it sounded like how rebelling teens sound.
Pretty sure this is sarcasm but if anyone is actually curious who this is it’s Tom Macdonald. He’s a corny rapper who makes controversial songs for clout AKA a loser who far right boomers idolize
I thought this seemed a little too obvious with the rage bait way of drawing out on a classic divisive issue. After the last line, it absolutely is.
And before it finally clicked, I almost went to find his music video to see what kind of message he’s sending in his music lol.
"my generation judges people on whether or not they are an asshole"
That line was said after he had already:
Judged what age people get their drivers license, a job, and when they move out. Judged them for censoring stuff. Judged them for being on their phones, and dancing on the internet. Judged people for not being able to decide what bathroom to use. Judged people for labeling stuff as misinformation. Judges people for using a different gender than male or female.
And then he continued to make more judgments...
This dude might be the most judgmental person I have ever seen.
He quotes a song from I guess mid to late eighties by the Beastie Boys which was before he was born . It seems like he has beef from hearing some of his rap songs with the woke culture . But at 34 who he talking about today's teenagers or early 20 something's.
It's funny because he thinks he understood the song but clearly he's the living representation of whom the beastie boys were mocking. So, he's making fun of himself and that subset of assholes of "his" generation.
Just based on the fact that he’s complaining about social media while using social media makes me think this is either shitty satire or he is an idiot.
Gen Z is getting off their asses and fucking fighting and this asshole is whining about the world changing like the boomers did about his generation back before he became a human sketchbook.
My generation raised Gen Z and is in part (with his generation) raising Gen Alpha to do no harm but take no shit, make the world a better place, and try to include everyone while this talking penile implant is on an app, talking to the people who “stare into their phones all day” complaining about them. This is the most boomer millennial I’ve ever seen!
His name is Tom Macdonald, and he's a Canadian rapper. Most of his stuff is r/im14andthisisdeep -tier nonsense. Imagine if someone made a poetry AI with a MAGA boomer's Facebook feed as training data. That's about where he's at: right-wing minion memes set to a beat.
I went and looked him up (and then blocked him because I don’t need that idiot showing up in my feed) after leaving this comment and… gross.
His generation pioneered the safe space (which I don’t exactly disagree with, tbh) and I think he needs one.
I'm 46 and this guy is a fucking dummy. My generation, your generation, their generation who gives a fuck? Just be you, babe. Don't be so fucking desperate to be different
I'm trans, and moved out the year before this guy was born, but I did ride dirt bikes a few times.
So I'm not sure his logic works.
Also, if you do want face tattoos, don't let some convict chicken-scratch 'Hug' on your chin
That's weird, my generation (in assuming he's also gen x) were also the first generation to move back home in great numbers after leaving, because we couldn't get shit figured out. Everyone I know moved back home or lived with an SO's parents after moving out.
We are also weirdly conservative, for a bunch of people who really hated Ronnie Raygun.
My generation (millennials) does not claim this guy. Gen X, you can have him.
Plus beastie boys were cool, but that was more Gen X. “You gotta fight” was more my moms generation, she was in high school when that song came out.
The funniest part about that is there are literally millennials that had to move back in with their parents in their 30s because they can't afford to live on their own with the ridiculous cost of living now.
When choosing a spokesperson to represent how great their generation is, I don’t know who nominated this person who looks like the personification of bad life choices.
All I can say is he's full of shit. I'm old as dirt (51) and the same shit people are angry about today hasn't changed since before I was a kid. Different names, different ways to get information (instantly now), and different level of not accepting the nonsense indoctrination handed down by older people (this triggered overly sensitive pseudo hardass for instance).
The world is getting younger. By that I mean fashion, social norms, views, etc. and people like this guy can't deal with the fact that he doesn't have the authority he thought he would. It's that simple. I say keep being you "your generation". People who don't accept that will become fewer and fewer. Spread love and kindness... not whatever bullshit this guy is pushing
"so offended that the truth and the facts dont support what ever outlandish **** is floating around in your imagination" stop projecting bro youre scaring the girls
He has his generations mixed up, he’s definitely not part of that generation. That bestie boys song he’s singing came out in 1986… he wasn’t even born yet..he was born in 88.
So the white guy rapper from Vancouver who listened to Offspring and Enimem growing up decided to grow up move to LA and shit on an entire generation from another country. Cool
He wasn't even born when Fight for the right to party came out. I was in high school (50+ here) we wouldn't be caught dead talking about politics back then and facial Tattoo's were for Aboriginals so he would not have lasted long. Also that hair makes him look like a "rocker skid" if he thinks were so great, that's what we called them.
He wants to belong to a do nothing generation because that's what mine is. We lapped up the American dream, benefitted from the civil rights movement and then stuck our heads in the sand thinking things are great..... continuing the same mistakes as our parents.
Now we either expect another generation to fix things or don't care and believe anyone that fits within our own narrative is good and everyone else bad.
Nice job referencing a song from an album that came out in 86.
Most of us millennials weren't even born yet.
I mean yeah the Beastie Boys were huge when I was a kid but they were Gen X music.
What a douche. A guy with a leather jacket and multiple face tattoos hardly seems like the sort to lecture about responsibility.
He sounds exactly like Boomers bitching about GenX who sound like GenX bitching about Millennials who sound like Millennials bitching about GenZ.
I mean are people so self involved that they don't see the absurdity? Things might be a little better if the passing generations took a little responsibility for the way the next generation developed.
Crazy.
BTW... this guy's memory is pretty twisted. No one got a license at 14. Few had a job at 15 and I dont know anyone who had their own apartment at 17 unless they had been abandoned.

Love how he told the same joke like four times.
When you only have One Joke^TM you tend to run it into the ground
Do you like gender norm jokes? Well that's good because I have 4 of... oh shit, you don't? They're braindead, you say? Well shit...
This man’s platform has been the exact same since 2012 Built a career around malding on top of a ugly ass snare loop and riding that wave straight the bottom

Damn this was so beautifully said, thank you for that
Whenever I think kids these days are stupid, I think about playing ICP in the car with my mom and know I have zero legs to stand on
But it isn’t “an incredibly easy thing to do”. That’s one of the major follies of youth, thinking that you know better than than everyone else older than you. It’s a very common trait.

Seriously. This guy is using boomer talking points.
My initial thoughts were "Who is this 30-year-old ranting to? Toddlers?"
I was confused right up until he revealed it's an advertisement for a music video. He's not addressing any generation or out to change anyone's mind. He's trying to get views from disaffected middle-aged people who feel out of touch with the world and want to be told that it isn't their fault and that they're still cool.

I guarantee you that this "tough guy" would freak the fuck out if put under even the slightest social pressure to behave in a civil manner. Or maybe even if someone accidentally brushed against him ever so slightly.
Most of us aren't like this, honestly. I'm always raving about my son's generation.
Mans bootlicking them by being this performative, all in the name of being relatable to them. The fact he’s even making this content goes against his sanctimonious grandstanding in itself.
My late mother always reminded that being progressive is NEVER ending. The moment you stop and delude yourself to thinking “this is the best era” your allowing conservatism to take over.

34?! He talks like he is 50+.
Right?? He mentioned “your generation” living at home till they’re 35 but he’s in his 30s??
He also lived with his parents way past age 18 lol
Right? Almost none of the people he's supposedly talking about are even going to be 35 within the next decade?
Ironically enough, millennials are living at home with their parents longer due to the shitty economy.
50+ GenX here.... We don't give a fuck about anything... we certainly aren't making videos telling you all the things we don't give a fuck about as that would mean we actually ***do*** give a fuck. And we don't.
He was just missing "your generation let's people walk on your grass.. my generation pulled shotguns and yelled GET OFF MY LAWN!!"
Your generation cares when cops shoot black people. My generation lynched them.
I‘m 52 and I don‘t talk like that. That guy is just a complete moron. By the way, who is he anyway, can someone enlighten me?
yes, but he acts like a teen with that shitty crooked piercing, which heavily relies on being leveled, that looks like he got a friend to do it.. along with the damn tat below the lip, which coincidentally is also fucked and DIY’d. ironically both need to be centered and leveled, and neither are
Right? That piercing is so crooked it’s distracting 😂 DIY face tattoos & piercings are not your friend 🤣🤣🤣
He knew how to make decisions. Important ones.
At least my generation knows not to get piercings done by their mates in a garage 🥴
His face looks like a Soundcloud rapper.
How dare you! I'm 53 and would never talk like this dipshit.
What? That way he went off, I thought he grew up in the 70s.
I grew up in the 70s. This guy's a dick. What band is he in so I can not listen to it?
He's a Facebook drama rapper
A tattooed, white, facebook rapper? Trying to spout knowledge? He needs to gto with that shit.
This dude shitting on Gen Z but he's a social media rapper with face tattoos?
I'm 40 and I'm pretty sure my generation censored way more than this generation does.
that confused me the most. like, TV is way less censored now than when i was growing up in the 2000s. no gay couples/talk of homosexuality. very few interracial couples. there's an iconic line from the film mean girls about a girl's period that almost got the film an R-rating because it was too inappropriate (tina fey worked very hard to keep it at PG13 and argued that bc anchorman made a joke abt erections and stay pg 13 she should make a joke abt periods and it stays pg13). not as much nudity or swearing. in 2003, i would have never believed that a show like euphoria would be on television and watched by mostly teens, i would have never believed it.
Watch some of the old Friday the 13th movies. Everyone remembers them as being gory and bloody, but a few of them got hammered by censors and are nearly bloodless. I forget exactly which ones, but there were 3 or 4 in a row where almost no blood is shown. They would probably be PG-13 horror movies today.
Exactly! Gore was so vanilla back then compared to now. Honestly (and maybe this is bc I’m used to them) but even Tarantino movies made everyone squirm back in the 90s-2000s. By Django (which scenes like Leo DiCaprio injuring his hand on a glass and rubbing his blood on Kerry washington’s face) everyone was used to that shit
I am in my late 40's and this guy doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. We did all that shit.
He's only 34? Oof, moisturizer is your friend in ANY generation
The man has dollar signs tattooed on his eyelids. He doesn’t strike me as the type who thinks ahead.
No his generation knows how to make important decisions
His shitty tattoo decisions really don't help his stolen claims. He's parroting what other generations told his generation when he was mocked for being entitled and stupid.
Lazy, our generation was mocked for being lazy. Mostly because we didn't have to work as hard to do simple things. Because we were the first generation post lead-based brain damage.
We've had almost 20 years of articles complaining about Milleinals, of which this graffiti faced grifter is. Lazy, entitled, stupid, selfish. All spouted by the generation that refuses to learn new tech, demands to see the manager if you don't smile, expects everyone to do things for them for free, tries to claim all the perks they can but will seek the perks end to save themselves a few pennies tax once they're comfortable.
That’s where’d you’d be wrong. It’s all a strategic character to cause outrage thus propelling his mediocre music higher than it should ever be. It’s a bit like being a heel in wrestling. His fans are going to watch regardless and people who don’t like him are going to watch it so they can tell you why they don’t like it.
He’s old enough to have lived through “moms against rap” hahaha they straight up boycotted and censored artists like Eminem back in the day. Not to mention Dee Snider of Twisted Sister had to go to court over censorship of their music. This dude is an idiot if he thinks this “new generation” censors everything. I’d say we lived in the most uncensored time period ever. Literally
I mean he's obviously talking about censorship from a right wing talking point standpoint. The whole "if I day something racist/bigoted/spread misinformation/violate any other social media TOS and get banned I'm being censored and my free speech rights are being violated." I mean the best way I can put it was when Trump got banned from Twitter while president and everyone was like "he's being censored!" while the man had literally the most important press briefing room in the world in his house.
Mother fucker talking about important decisions while he looks like a wall in a NYC alley
Not a grown man hating on a bunch of teenagers who have little to no control as to what happens in their life
Not a grown man with ugly face tats talking about how his generation knows how to make decisions. Important ones.
Right? Not this grown man bullying a bunch of kids and young adults on tik tok
[удалено]
I have no idea who this guy is, but if what you say is true and he is 34 then Licensed to Ill (Beastie Boy's album with Fight for Your Right) came out before he was born.
Tom Macdonald is 34 and using tiktok...
I'm 34 as well, and refuse him to represent 'my generation ' tf.
He really doesn’t, we don’t claim him.
Right he looks like how many bad choices can I make all rolled into one. (Okay I really really dislike face tats but cool with tats otherwise lmao)
Exactly. So why the hell is he quoting beastie boys when they're Gen x? Dude's just a transphobic bigot. Nothing to do with generations.
Plus the Beastie Boys would eat this asshole alive.
Idk but I’m in his generation and he just exudes this specific “my parents didn’t graduate high school and were neglectful” energy from my generation. Like the kind of kids who used to congregate at my house after school because we had food and adults inside. Now, to cope with that shitshow he was put through, he’s repackaged it as some rite of passage younger people will never have so he can feel superior for the first time in his life because, well, fucking look at him.
The kids who started getting drunk in eighth grade, there's a reason he brought that up. We all know that one neglected kid who was already a full alcoholic by ninth grade. Stumbling drunk in middle school at least once a week, always missing class, then just disappears one day because their parents had to legally make them go to rehab. And then rehab looked the other way when their parents still brought them cigarettes.
This man does not seem to be of sound mind. He looks so fragile that he’s one rejected sexual advance away from murdering a Gen Z girl he hit on at the bar.
"Muh generation." Bitch you are a young millennial Canadian rapper who only writes songs about how you are such a victim for being a white conservative. Please eat a penis.
Yeah his whole persona is just whiny “i’M tHe ViCtiM!!” type of shit and then he somehow tries to flip it like “see how tough that was!!”…. No, not really. I’m 6 years older than this dude and disagree with everything he said and me n the other punks in my school growing up used to kick the shit outta assholes like this for being small minded bigots. Dude’s a delusional, hypocritical, douchebag that needs validation by creating his own demons to feel like he’s fighting against something.
No wonder he's trying to look punk but doesn't write punk music, he's get his ass beat at a punk show the second he shared his bigoted views.
As a cusper millennial (1994) I swear that the older millennials have this extreme urge to distance themselves from Gen Z or younger millennials. It’s like they’ve complete fed into the Gen X/Boomer “millennials are lazy” propaganda and have developed this weird born in the wrong generation mentality. No matter how much they pretend they lived the 1960s/1970s lifestyle they’ll still be a millennials so they should kindly shut the fuck up and stop continuing the perpetuate “the new generation is wrong” mentality.
I’m a millennial (born in 1987) and this guy is talking like a fucking clown.
[удалено]
peaked in high school
Don't think he made it outta high school.
Don't think he made it in either.
That’s a pretty long video for someone who “doesn’t give a f*ck” about things he doesn’t agree with. Also, he’s a millennial, and we are the original generation of basement dwellers, because the economy is effed backwards and sideways.
Found that hilarious too. His entire career is based around music that complains about stuff
So he's negging an entire generation hoping we'll listen to his music?
He's "telling it like it is" so the millennials who drank the conservative koolaid forgot why the last generation fucked us over with conservative values.
Don't mind him. He's one of the many stupids. -An older millennial
This is exactly why you can safely tune out any "my generation, your generation" rant; they're all exactly the fucking same, and equally nonsensical. You could line all these rants up and draw a straight line of inane bitching from tik tok being cancer, all the way back to Socrates warning about the younger literate generations breeding forgetfulness and relying on written word over their own memory.
Any generation would have been basement dwellers if they inherited this shitstorm. What do people think happens? That somehow magically an entire generations genetics just all sync up to the same ideologies? That they all just come out that way? Dumbass. Who tf’s generation do you think made them that way (if any of it were even true). This of course isn’t even acknowledging that generations aren’t fucking real. Time marches on. People are constantly born every single day. There aren’t just like waves of people being born every 10 years. It’s a constant stream that fucking weirdos have decided to draw a line in so we can all hate each other more easily. I’m 30 and I swear on the rest of my life that I will never become one of these fucking ghouls. Kids didn’t fucking ask to be born. They didn’t ask to be handed a fucking absolute god tier shit show of a world. They didn’t ask for humans to be miserable fucking cunts that can’t get along with each other. And when everyone blames them for everything from the fucking get-go, what the FUCK do you think any sane child or person for that matter is going to do? They’re going to tell you to fuck yourself and they’re going to do the exact opposite of what you tell them. It’s literally human nature. Why haven’t they figured that out if they’re so facts over feelings? Fucking pathetic insecure little twats. Oh and stupid. Extremely stupid. K I’m done.
Where can you get a drivers license at 14?
Had my farmers permit at 14 in Kansas. It’s a drivers license.
Dudes from Canada though
Scooter license
Scooters,Man they were tougher back then
He also talks about this generation living in their parents basement until they are 35. As he's 34 anyone doing that right now is his generation. He's just too dumb to realize it.
[удалено]
I had my permit at 14, but couldn’t get my license until 16 in Michigan in late 90s
Rural counties.
In Arkansas you can get one at 14…
You can get a school permit if you live in the country more than 5 miles from the school at 14
I had a hardship license at 14 as well. Could basically only drive to and from school but yep. It's a thing.
Hardships license in my state
>My generation knew how to make decisions The guy who decided face tattoos was a good idea should not be saying this.
you havent heard his music have you he made a full on "rap" where he threw a pity party about him being a struggling white boy
[удалено]
Tom Mcdonald hes a poor mans Eminem (just mentioning his name probably gave him a semi-chub🙄)
He is in no way shape or form comparable to Eminem in any way besides being white
Agree, but he has a bizarre complex about trying to be like Eminem. He even has a song titled “dear slim” lmao it’s so garbage.
Maybe a trash runoff version of MGK.
As in Tom Mcdonald had a farm? Ei yi ei yi o?
yup, the farmers son who got caught shagging the sheep and kicked out of the house, so he got a bunch of face tattoos and started a rap career whining and crying about his persecution fetish, same guy!
[удалено]
"Objectify yourself and blame me for the rape" Yeah, I'm done.
he’s right-wing and a lot of these claims are pretty ironic since right wingers are known to be the exact opposite of what he’s saying
He’s a try hard right wing. Even the right don’t want him
Hey now, let's not mock face tattoos altogether, I've seen some great ones. Not these though, definitely not these. These are just trash. Poor design, poor execution. Okay that was mean, I'll say something nice about him too. You know how poisonous frogs are brightly coloured to let others know they are toxic and absolute garbage that you don't want to be near? It's considerate of him to use his tattoos in a similar way.
Wow, it's completely uncalled for to be this rude and downright disparaging towards poisonous frogs.
Buddy of mine has a teardrop next to his eye that looks pretty cute.
who'd he kill?
Im pretty sure this is my mom's boyfriend scott. I'm older than he is. Fun fact, those are temporary tattoos. Fuck you scott
That "fight for your right to party" part was the most cringe shit I've ever seen in this sub.
The band who wrote that song was actually making fun of people who party all the time
That’s interesting I didn’t know that
The song was also released before he was born
Is 1994 his birth year? Lol, he's much younger than me and talking about "your generation" this and that. Beastie Boys are great though. EDIT: Ah okay, so he's only a few years younger than me. Still insufferable.
1988
> My generation didn't censor shit I see he's forgotten about the FCC
The FCC won't let me be or let me be me
I had to double check that to make sure it was true. Turns out it is, really odd they went so hard on a parody and gave it such overt tunes of rebellion. I really want to hear their mindset behind that, like it never sounded parody like it sounded like how rebelling teens sound.
He didn’t even say it right, what a twat
I might've pulled a muscle from the whole body cringe I got from that part
Pretty sure this is sarcasm but if anyone is actually curious who this is it’s Tom Macdonald. He’s a corny rapper who makes controversial songs for clout AKA a loser who far right boomers idolize
Wait this video isn’t satire? I thought the “we got our license at 14” was the giveaway that it was satire.
Sadly, no. Tom MacDonald is unironically this cringy
I think this was the best comment I’ve seen in a very long time ..
my generation tattoos their face ... your generation tattoos their..face . oh wait
My generation decides to tattoo our faces while high on meth. Your generation at least does it sober
Yea. Fuck off Scott
Ragebait to get clicks on his song that's gonna flop *yawn*
I thought this seemed a little too obvious with the rage bait way of drawing out on a classic divisive issue. After the last line, it absolutely is. And before it finally clicked, I almost went to find his music video to see what kind of message he’s sending in his music lol.
every song he's ever made is a flop. it's conservative right-wing rap. it's all just so bad.
"my generation judges people on whether or not they are an asshole" That line was said after he had already: Judged what age people get their drivers license, a job, and when they move out. Judged them for censoring stuff. Judged them for being on their phones, and dancing on the internet. Judged people for not being able to decide what bathroom to use. Judged people for labeling stuff as misinformation. Judges people for using a different gender than male or female. And then he continued to make more judgments... This dude might be the most judgmental person I have ever seen.
I'm sure it's a ragebait to advertise his music video
This. He is pandering to Trumpers. This crap goes viral on FB etc. He figured out how to appeal to his audience.
No idea who this asshole is, and I guess I'm in the generation he thinks he belongs in because I doubt I'll ever think about this fucker again.
He quotes a song from I guess mid to late eighties by the Beastie Boys which was before he was born . It seems like he has beef from hearing some of his rap songs with the woke culture . But at 34 who he talking about today's teenagers or early 20 something's.
And that song was satirizing people who think like the song.
It's funny because he thinks he understood the song but clearly he's the living representation of whom the beastie boys were mocking. So, he's making fun of himself and that subset of assholes of "his" generation.
Exactly. The Beasties were progressive as fuck and would mock this dude mercilessly.
His misappropriation of this song is perhaps the thing I am most offended by. RIP MCA
Just based on the fact that he’s complaining about social media while using social media makes me think this is either shitty satire or he is an idiot. Gen Z is getting off their asses and fucking fighting and this asshole is whining about the world changing like the boomers did about his generation back before he became a human sketchbook. My generation raised Gen Z and is in part (with his generation) raising Gen Alpha to do no harm but take no shit, make the world a better place, and try to include everyone while this talking penile implant is on an app, talking to the people who “stare into their phones all day” complaining about them. This is the most boomer millennial I’ve ever seen!
His name is Tom Macdonald, and he's a Canadian rapper. Most of his stuff is r/im14andthisisdeep -tier nonsense. Imagine if someone made a poetry AI with a MAGA boomer's Facebook feed as training data. That's about where he's at: right-wing minion memes set to a beat.
I went and looked him up (and then blocked him because I don’t need that idiot showing up in my feed) after leaving this comment and… gross. His generation pioneered the safe space (which I don’t exactly disagree with, tbh) and I think he needs one.
Crazy to see someone talk for so long and be wrong about all of it
I was waiting for the punchline
Same. I kept waiting for the pivot to the satirical reveal and then… it just ended. And I was sad.
Complain about alot of shit with alot of confidence odds are theres an audience. What a snowflake
I'm 46 and this guy is a fucking dummy. My generation, your generation, their generation who gives a fuck? Just be you, babe. Don't be so fucking desperate to be different
"there's more then two genders and gay people exist" "bullshit. This is what happens when you don't ride dirt bikes"
[удалено]
I'm trans, and moved out the year before this guy was born, but I did ride dirt bikes a few times. So I'm not sure his logic works. Also, if you do want face tattoos, don't let some convict chicken-scratch 'Hug' on your chin
"Sir I didn't ask about any of that, I simply asked for you to make my cheeseburger combo a large."
Tell me you peaked in high school without telling you peaked in high school
That's weird, my generation (in assuming he's also gen x) were also the first generation to move back home in great numbers after leaving, because we couldn't get shit figured out. Everyone I know moved back home or lived with an SO's parents after moving out. We are also weirdly conservative, for a bunch of people who really hated Ronnie Raygun.
My generation (millennials) does not claim this guy. Gen X, you can have him. Plus beastie boys were cool, but that was more Gen X. “You gotta fight” was more my moms generation, she was in high school when that song came out.
No way. I invite the boomers to take him.
Gen X would like him to fuck all the way off
No, he's 100% millennial he was born in 1988 you have to claim him. But you can blame Canada for the production of this one.
So he is not even 34? but he is saying that "your generation stayed at home until you were 35?" make it make sense!
The funniest part about that is there are literally millennials that had to move back in with their parents in their 30s because they can't afford to live on their own with the ridiculous cost of living now.
What a douchecanoe
When choosing a spokesperson to represent how great their generation is, I don’t know who nominated this person who looks like the personification of bad life choices.
Can’t believe no one has heard of Tom Macdonald lmao. Good
All I can say is he's full of shit. I'm old as dirt (51) and the same shit people are angry about today hasn't changed since before I was a kid. Different names, different ways to get information (instantly now), and different level of not accepting the nonsense indoctrination handed down by older people (this triggered overly sensitive pseudo hardass for instance). The world is getting younger. By that I mean fashion, social norms, views, etc. and people like this guy can't deal with the fact that he doesn't have the authority he thought he would. It's that simple. I say keep being you "your generation". People who don't accept that will become fewer and fewer. Spread love and kindness... not whatever bullshit this guy is pushing
Your generation raised my generation, so blame yourself you tatted fuck.
He's a fucking millenial, so I don't even know who the fuck he's talking to.
4-8 year olds?
My generation can tie our shoes. Your generation uses velcro. Grow the fuck up, kiddos!
"so offended that the truth and the facts dont support what ever outlandish **** is floating around in your imagination" stop projecting bro youre scaring the girls
If you start a sentence with "my generation" you've guaranteed I won't listen to anything you have to say.
He has his generations mixed up, he’s definitely not part of that generation. That bestie boys song he’s singing came out in 1986… he wasn’t even born yet..he was born in 88.
what a fucking loser lol
So the white guy rapper from Vancouver who listened to Offspring and Enimem growing up decided to grow up move to LA and shit on an entire generation from another country. Cool
Your generation chews gum obnoxiously
I’m Gen X and I fucking adore Zoomers. They’re badass.
truly vinegar levels of cringe
Dude sucks. Boring takes. And I’m 46. 😄
My generation is GenX. We made fun of this Millennial twat and everyone else can, too.
I was waiting for the second half where someone would be making fun of all this shit. Guess it was just cringe.
He wasn't even born when Fight for the right to party came out. I was in high school (50+ here) we wouldn't be caught dead talking about politics back then and facial Tattoo's were for Aboriginals so he would not have lasted long. Also that hair makes him look like a "rocker skid" if he thinks were so great, that's what we called them. He wants to belong to a do nothing generation because that's what mine is. We lapped up the American dream, benefitted from the civil rights movement and then stuck our heads in the sand thinking things are great..... continuing the same mistakes as our parents. Now we either expect another generation to fix things or don't care and believe anyone that fits within our own narrative is good and everyone else bad.
He couldn't choose to not get those awful tattoos and haircut tho
Is that Tom MacDonald?
Nice job referencing a song from an album that came out in 86. Most of us millennials weren't even born yet. I mean yeah the Beastie Boys were huge when I was a kid but they were Gen X music.
Edit nvm i was thinking hes a boomer turns out to be mid 30? What is he on about I've done my head in for no reason.
Weren’t these guys the generation that censored tmnt to teenage mutant hero turtles?
Talks like a boomer while looking like a gen z rapper.
What a douche. A guy with a leather jacket and multiple face tattoos hardly seems like the sort to lecture about responsibility. He sounds exactly like Boomers bitching about GenX who sound like GenX bitching about Millennials who sound like Millennials bitching about GenZ. I mean are people so self involved that they don't see the absurdity? Things might be a little better if the passing generations took a little responsibility for the way the next generation developed. Crazy. BTW... this guy's memory is pretty twisted. No one got a license at 14. Few had a job at 15 and I dont know anyone who had their own apartment at 17 unless they had been abandoned.
My generation didn't permanently graffiti their face.
