This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

well that's fucking dark (and as others have pointed out, misguided - won't solve a thing)

And as others have also pointed out, the website isn't anything anti-boomer. It tracks each generation, and it's just mildly interesting that boomers just hit 1/3.

No, it's not anti-boomer. And, Trump isn't anti immigrant. After all his own wife is an immigrant.

Give me a break!

And one day, every generation's population will hit zero. Always happens....

How it's presented to us though in this Lemmy article does suggest that though.

On a tangent, I really hate how people who create Lemmy posts really bias the article they're posting about in the title of the Lemmy post, sometimes to the point where the title doesn't match the article they're posting, or speaks about the title in just one/two sentences of a long article.
