Unfortunately, they seem more than a little distracted.  It's as if they live in a bubble that floats through the world of not-them.  They don't feel any real attachment to that world, or any responsibility for it.  They are angry about their lives; they see themselves as pawns in a game they don't play.  Many are just accepting of their fate.  It's sad, to be frank about it.  If I have to use a single term, it's lethargic.  I'm not sure what breaks that pattern.

Part of the bubble come from the fact that Millennials have a stronger relationship with their parents and so are sheltered somewhat from economic hardship. They complain but they're not really angry. 

In fact, despite the impression one might get from reading headlines on the Internet, things really aren't that bad for most people. That's where the complacency comes from.
