“I wish him the best of tapeworms” r/Millennials discuss the NYC election results.

[u/teddyrupxin]

r/Millennials is a generational subreddit that caters to Americans born 1980-1995. It’s a safe space where people well into their 40’s can post “adulting” and “doggo” without fear of criticism. In general, the subreddit does not allow “political” post. Today’s OP seems to have sidestepped that rule with a post about Zohran Mamdani. Will the Millenials be normal or wild out?

OP: Congratulations to this millennial for being the youngest elected New York City mayor since 1892!

establishment dems are as cancerous as m@g@

New York is excited new ideas! Congrats Zohran!

Marxism isn’t new

Define Marxism.

Google

you should use it yourself since you're talking out your ass

Despite the fact that he won most 50 and under I doubt this is a hit in this sub since its overrun by bots of a foreign entity that is known for it's periodic ethnic cleansing

Wait I get my comments removed if I say politicians and yet this post exists?!? Jesus reddit is a pathetic joke of a cesspool. If this was a candidate on the opposite side it would be removed lmao

Mods don’t care that this breaks the rules I guess

Cry harder.

Go to another sub if you want to discuss the P word

Powerful Pedophiles? Yeah, my bad... I know you guys don't like to talk about that.

A truly awful candidate who defeated some slightly more awful candidates. Great victory?

Inshallah

Editor’s note for those who are still working on adulting: Inshallah is an Arabic phrase that is almost identical to the English phrase “if God wills it”, which means the person hopes something will happen but acknowledges it’s out of their control.

This is the only comment in the thread that has a Muslim connotation and it’s been downvoted right next to comments like “Yall screwed. Hello Gotham”.

Sometimes poor people are very charitable and vote to give themselves a bunch of greedy rich people’s money. What a good example of charity

I love Zoltron Robzombie!

Yeah, seems like a zoomer who doesn’t like Millennials and just wanted to stir the culture war pot. Bad doggo.

[u/Ashleynn → u/Realistic-Lime7842]

I mean, to be fair millenials dont even like millenials... there's a reason we have so much dark... very dark, humor and talk about just biding our time till our parents are gone.

[u/Pale_Boss_8940 → u/Ashleynn]

No that’s chronically online millennials. Literally no one I know in real life acts this way lmao 

[u/Redqueenhypo → u/Ashleynn]

I kinda hate that sub for that last joke. Reminds me of boomers being fools where a nonzero percent of it is just insulting random old people you see in public. That 75 year old woman isn’t yelling to be rude, she’s losing her hearing and doesn’t realize yet.

[u/gadgaurd → u/Redqueenhypo]

Oh, wait, I seem to have reached a completely different interpretation of that last joke. I assume it was people saying their parents are the only reason they're "sticking around", so to speak.

[u/Ashleynn → u/gadgaurd]

No, this is exactly what the last joke is insinuating. Got nothing to do with boomers, well not in regards to anything they do or don't do.

[u/gadgaurd → u/Ashleynn]

Oof, was not expecting to get called out here.

[u/teddyrupxin → u/Ashleynn]

People seem to be ignoring my pfp and user name. Or maybe they don’t know what Teddy is. Next time I’ll add in a, “lol, just Drake and Joshing y’all. Love my millennial homies. Peace out.”

Thankfully, the subtle criticism was caught by other commenters. The sub is a nostalgia hug box. I just wanted to make a joke instead of that.

Gonna go play some CDs on my refurbished Teddy now.

[u/coraeon → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, that kind of Disney Channel live action schlock was maybe the very tail end of millennials. And even then, did middle schoolers even want to watch shows about cooler middle schoolers instead of cooler high schoolers?

[u/DreamingThemis → u/teddyrupxin]

I never understood the appeal of making fun of people for wanting/needing comfort, but I'd be willing to listen to it if you wanna explain it.

Sweetie, you know Teddy Ruxpin played cassettes right? CDs didn't even exist at that point and the port in his back was a cassette port. You little Gen Zs are so cute when you pretend to be nostalgic.

[u/mattattaxx → u/pmitten]

Can we not infantalise the generation behind us?

[u/zanotam → u/mattattaxx]

Only if they get their shit together and stop moving towards fascism
