Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting on (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They woulda never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
'Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want


That's why we're waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

It's not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

And we're still waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population

So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change

Now I keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
We're waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change




So you Millennials are running shit now.

And we've pulled out from the war you were singing about back in 2006.

Was that all a bunch of bullshit, or can we celebrate now?

Do you need to have a talk with your Legacy Media Masters before you make up your mind, John?

Wait for your turn, youngsters. The Legacy Media Masters are in their 70's. Millennials won't rule until they are in their 70's, which means a 35 year long wait until they are old enough.

Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1981 and 1994/6. They are currently between 25 and 40 years old (72.1 million in the U.S.)

The people who run things do NOT have to obey, or even listen to people who run nothing. This is a concept that the people who run nothing have a very hard time understanding, but not understanding is precisely why they run nothing.

Actually, technically, it is
Bill Gates was born in 1955
Jeff Bezos was born in 1964

Baby boomers
Baby boomers are the demographic cohort following the Silent Generation and preceding Generation X. The generation is generally defined as people born from 1946 to 1964, during the post–World War II baby boom. Wikipedia


The baby boom happened when men survived WWII and came home and found women and fucked them. The women then baked cookies.

When I think of woke ideology, Gates and Bezos don't come to mind.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


"The majority" in ANY generation NEVER changes the world. Not the boomers, not the millenials, not women (wich btw make up the majority) ... nobody. The USA is run by a very small elite, and and waiting for demographics to create fundamental change is stupid. (That is why bringing in a bunch of hispanics won't really change anything, either. It may give the DNC semi-permanent power, but since the DNC is beholden to financialists and other large transnational corporations, does anyone REALLY think that the DNC has the workers' backs?)

Given that this is - technically, at least- a democracy with mechanisms for peaceful change, it's remarkable that nothing ever really changes.

In order to stay in power in a (theoretical) democracy, TPTB have to control the vote. They do this several ways ... by

1) Controlling the candidates who appear on the ballot thru campaign donations to their favorites

2) Relentlessly propagandizing the people (that's us) every single waking moment thru broadcast, cable, and social media; in movies and print; thru adverts, storylines, and planted "news", "analyses" and "education" and "opinion"

3) Obscuring the vote count and party machinations that get in the way of free and fair elections

4) Extending the rights of individuals to corporations without extending the same responsibilites.

Everybody seems to be missing the point of this thread.

We really need to get John Mayer in here and ask him what he thinks about pulling out of Afghanistan.

I see that they've invented critical race theory, because when they trashed sane people for attacking cultural marxism, the sane people started directly attacking critical theory which is what cultural marxism calls itself. So critical race theory is probably there to call anyone who attacks critical theory a racist.

We just can't engage these people in any dialogue. Other solutions time.

How many votes did Trump get? About 72 million. If the 72.1 million Millennials in the U.S. all voted in the same direction, a really big IF, say for ending the Afghanistan War, it would have ended many years ago. But since about as many Millennials support the war as are opposed to the war, while the vast majority don't have an opinion, and even if they have an opinion they might just as well not have one because they sure don't do anything about their opinions, the War will continue on and on until a President decides.
