Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

We just reposting the same things from 10 years ago with “millennials” replaced by “gen z?”
Shut up you ~~millennial~~ gen z snowflake! You’ll take the recycled content and enjoy it
/s, if it wasn’t obvious….I’m noting that same trend myself.
Does that mean Gen Z are going to kill the diamond industry again?
Turgenev enters the chat . . .
Same thing as thousands of years ago.
No, there's a radical difference here. Yeah, some of these stories are "young people today" bullshit that will always be true. Gen Z truly got fucked by the pandemic and social media.
Judging by the comments here, there won't be any discussion. Which kinda proves the point.
Article ignores key factors of why people would behave in the office like that...
It is a disingenuous fake news.
There are NO factors for behaving like that in the office. If a young person doesn't have the basic social skill of shutting the fuck up about politics in the workplace, wouldn't you say they lack, at the very least, that one simple skill?
Watch these comments for more evidence. Anyone agreeing with the article's premise, or trying to add discussion/nuance, is getting downvoted with no reply.
In my experience, it's the boomers who can't shut the fuck up about politics in the workplace, so trying to lay blame the zoomers for not rolling over and taking it just reeks of more boomer entitlement. shrugs
In my experience, it's the boomers and fellow far right wing that talk politics in the workplace. Especially when they think it's a safe space for "locker room talk". Then they accuse the younger generation of being political because they dare to have LGTBQ+ pins, or don't want to participate with racism or don't look down on someone for having dyed hair.
Calling out someone for being racist, sexist or any of the other behaviors that are no longer acceptable isn’t political, despite one side often labeling it as such.

Social media is the real world today. Yes, the pandemic put everyone’s life on hold for 3 years and that’s going to screw up people’s formative years, but this article hasn’t done much to separate that out from the gripes every new generation entering the workforce gets.
Fair point on the second bit, but I don't understand social media being the real world.
You and I are having a real discussion right now. It’s every bit as real as discussion as if we were having it in person.
Social media has been around over 20 years. The attitude that it’s some other world outside the real world that doesn’t count is antiquated. Social media is part of life, just like everything else we do.
