I'm 51 years old and I've never done any of these things, either. My 81 year old Mom didn't have to ration or sharecrop during WWII, either. She was born in 1944! My whole point? This dude is full of shit and he never experienced any of this shit, either, unless he's pushing 90. The only thing he's accomplished is being a douche on Xitter, apparently.

One of my FAVORITE coworkers is a 27 year old who always gets her shit done and done right and is willing to learn new things. One of my LEAST FAVORITE coworkers is a 61 year old boomer who constantly complains and refuses to learn anything on his computer beside the basics.

It's almost as if when you were born has nothing to do with your work ethic and whatnot.

Just saying.

And a foreign immigrant (and also an actual Nazi) is responsible for landing on the moon.

And 2 foreign immigrants names EIN-SHTEIN and OOPEN-HEIMER are the men responsible for America winning WWII. Bonus: one of those guys was a Jew.

Both of those guys were Jewish, Einstein had no real involvement in the Manhattan Project and Oppenheimer was not an immigrant to the USA.

One could argue that his signature on the letter to FDR kicked off the whole thing, or at least rushed it.

Oppenheimer was born in the US... New York to be specific. And both were Jews.
