I've been seeing these videos pop up in my feed for a few days now, usually all with the same jokes of bashing millennials and overpriced food. Is this an actual trend in restaurants or is it something that MOPs have made up to satisfy their tribalistic hatred of others? Seriously, look at the comments of this video and others like it. They're all usually the same, long, overspecific jokes each time. I don't get it.

I initially wanted to use "normie" but I felt that was overgeneralizing and derogatory

I think it's an exaggeration of a phenomenon that did actually exist to some extent around a decade ago, that sort of stereotypically millennial hipster restaurant.

it feels a little odd to rail against now, so many years later. some of the observations are amusing in their specificity (for example, the use of labels like "handhelds" and "sharables" on the menu), but generally I don't think it's deserving of vitriol

I think so as well. It always makes me upset when I see it because it reminds me of what the internet has become: a big melting pot of outrage and noise. People don't want to connect and understand anymore, only ridicule and demonize. Maybe mob mentality is the only way they *can* connect with others due to social conditioning. I dunno, I miss the old internet where everything was quieter and secularized.

I've seen 'em too. I suspect it's the eternal Gen X-er, attempting to push the idea of millennials as "the soyjak", to divert attention from the fact that the original soyjak was based off Gen X soyboys like Chuck Wendig.

It's not just on youtube, that fucking card game did it too. There's a concerted effort to cement the Soy Wojak as the "Offficial Millenial Image".
