But I didn't own an ipod until HSPeople born in the 1980's who say "I'm not really a millennial" are like certain Dominicans who swear that they are not black.
The phrase "but I didn't own an ipod until college" is the generational equivalent to "Dominicans are actually all Spanish." To say "it's those 90's kids who are spoiled and lazy" is like saying "it's those Haitians, they are the one who from Africa."
Just like your typical white person sees all dark skin people as lazy and feckless, the typical older American sees anyone born after 1975 as lazy and feckless and deserving of poverty.
