Sure. BLM and Antifa are out there smashing store windows when it's convenient for their Boomer backers, for example. It doesn't help at all to give Millenials a future, but it does help Boomer factions channel Millenial aggression away from themselves.
The Millenials' actual problems stem from concentration of wealth and power in upper age bracket. That's only going to be fixed when enough Boomers, and maybe X, are ruined or dead, one way or anther. Boomers are too rigid to permit a more rational solution to emerge, and Millenials don't have the experience even to understand what's really going on. Any "vision" involved in what will ultimately become the solution will only emerge from trying to make sense after the fact of how we stumbled into it.
