I wouldn't call it failure to understand or laughing at another's pain, but I see it more as being exasperated by the fact that you have pain in the first place.

The generations before you were in a tough mindset after the death of another person...or seeing their friends blown apart. To see the effects of death and destruction right in front of them.... To see people dying...

As opposed to this generation which it appears is in the same mental place, but instead of death and destruction, it is from them not getting their own way. The election didn't have the outcome you wanted. People are challenging your beliefs, and you lack the ability to stand up to those challenges. You're coming to the realization that you won't always get your way, and that is upsetting.

At least...that's what it appears to be from this angle.

It’s a slap in the face to those who legitimately suffer from PTSD due to the trauma they have suffered.

So is it only the college students who are pathetic? - 23/10/2018 01:14:28 PM 369 Views
apparently this study was focused on college students - 23/10/2018 01:45:35 PM 392 Views
*shrugs* - 23/10/2018 02:53:40 PM 381 Views

I'm not sure we do. - 23/10/2018 07:14:46 PM 388 Views
Did you tell mook that? Seems he has trouble telling the difference. - 23/10/2018 07:34:16 PM 404 Views

Nope these are Gen Z (mostly) - 23/10/2018 07:16:46 PM 365 Views
That's not what that link says. - 23/10/2018 06:44:21 PM 413 Views
But it did suggest they are more likely to be diagnosed PTSD in the future as a result - 23/10/2018 06:51:47 PM 370 Views
And? That would be the case for any kind of 'event-related distress'. - 23/10/2018 07:08:13 PM 371 Views
Easy target because so many of them are horrible. *NM* - 23/10/2018 07:30:05 PM 214 Views
Easy target because every generation likes to pick on the youngsters of the next generation. - 23/10/2018 08:09:58 PM 374 Views
Bah! - 23/10/2018 08:13:23 PM 360 Views
It is what all the news accounts of the study say however. - 23/10/2018 07:48:56 PM 363 Views
So what you're saying is, you should be blaming the liberal media instead of liberal students? - 23/10/2018 07:57:53 PM 353 Views
It is a race to the bottom - 23/10/2018 08:11:39 PM 364 Views
just blame the libs. it's easier *NM* - 23/10/2018 08:12:30 PM 213 Views
Is it true though? - 23/10/2018 09:04:10 PM 386 Views
blame whomever you want... - 23/10/2018 09:08:14 PM 360 Views
I blame the "destructive spirit" - 23/10/2018 10:17:52 PM 413 Views
What's the mental disorder for failure to understand blended with glee at other's suffering? - 23/10/2018 09:51:00 PM 368 Views
It must be a heavy burden - 23/10/2018 09:54:56 PM 375 Views
The first noble truth is life is suffering - 23/10/2018 10:24:09 PM 373 Views

Nope - 24/10/2018 12:14:06 AM 353 Views

You are such a sanctimonius prick - 23/10/2018 11:42:04 PM 371 Views
I seem to have hit a nerve - 24/10/2018 01:05:47 AM 387 Views
You misunderstand - 24/10/2018 01:15:55 AM 384 Views
Re: You misunderstand - 31/10/2018 03:01:11 PM 387 Views
Mookie please don't put words in my mouth / project my intentions onto others - 24/10/2018 01:16:52 AM 372 Views
Fair enough. I won’t use you as a reference again. *NM* - 24/10/2018 01:24:00 AM 211 Views
Feel free to use me as a reference - 24/10/2018 01:31:53 AM 358 Views
some suffering deserves ridicule - 29/10/2018 07:45:50 PM 353 Views
Really? - 31/10/2018 03:03:36 PM 358 Views

How will your "outrage" change the situation? - 26/10/2018 05:44:00 PM 347 Views
From here... - 26/10/2018 06:04:06 PM 357 Views
It won't. - 26/10/2018 06:04:52 PM 343 Views
Jeo, Mookie, lets go back some steps. - 26/10/2018 07:43:08 PM 358 Views
And that is the problem. Where you sit doesn't afford you enough insight, apparently... - 31/10/2018 02:58:12 PM 334 Views
