GIs were more obedient to their Missionary leaders, while Millennials tend to obey their social media peer society. The later is more insidious, IMO.
Agree in full, with one caveat. In the end, the Millennials will act. but we don't know in what manner … at least not yet. As a group, they are self-absorbed and more than a little self-pitying. Then again, they have pretty sensible instincts, so this can play a lot of different ways.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
