No. That'd be a wrong interpretation. Xers don't think that's a good thing, and they have most of their life trajectory to point to as an example of why the think it is a bad thing. Instead, Xers have learned first hand, that jumping up and down throwing temper tantrums and ranting that you are deeply offended is a glorious waste of time. Thus, Xers would advise to work smarter, not harder. Find an end run around the system. Millies (reflecting heavily on the Boomer culture they so worship) tend to feel entitled, offended and predisposed to temper tantrums in response to people puncturing their world view.

It's a stupid thing we say
