lol sure you do.
If you're gonna make up bullshit, try to make it even remotely believable.I wish I was lying.
I personally know more millenials who have more of a clue about the world wars than I do Boomers/Xers.

Hitler's life was spared by a British soldier in WW1 when he could've easily just blown his brains out. The biggest turning point of the 20th century.

Shit like your original post to this reply is the reason some of us 'millennials' are ashamed at the rubbish the rest of you mongoloids spew. You're saying people born directly as a result of Hitler don't know what war he was in?
Some dont
It seems that millennials only know about Hitler from such times as WWII.
Watch this Oversimplified Hitler Part1 video to educate yourself.
Main article: Military career of Adolf Hitler
Hitler (far right, seated) with his army comrades of the Bavarian Reserve Infantry Regiment 16 (c. 1914–18)
In August 1914, at the outbreak of World War I, Hitler was living in Munich and voluntarily enlisted in the Bavarian Army. According to a 1924 report by the Bavarian authorities, allowing Hitler to serve was almost certainly an administrative error, since as an Austrian citizen, he should have been returned to Austria. Posted to the Bavarian Reserve Infantry Regiment 16 (1st Company of the List Regiment),he served as a dispatch runner on the Western Front in France and Belgium, spending nearly half his time at the regimental headquarters in Fournes-en-Weppes, well behind the front lines. He was present at the First Battle of Ypres, the Battle of the Somme, the Battle of Arras, and the Battle of Passchendaele, and was wounded at the Somme.He was decorated for bravery, receiving the Iron Cross, Second Class, in 1914. On a recommendation by Lieutenant Hugo Gutmann, Hitler's Jewish superior, he received the Iron Cross, First Class on 4 August 1918, a decoration rarely awarded to one of Hitler's Gefreiter rank. He received the Black Wound Badge on 18 May 1918.
During his service at headquarters, Hitler pursued his artwork, drawing cartoons and instructions for an army newspaper. During the Battle of the Somme in October 1916, he was wounded in the left thigh when a shell exploded in the dispatch runners' dugout. Hitler spent almost two months in hospital at Beelitz, returning to his regiment on 5 March 1917. On 15 October 1918, he was temporarily blinded in a mustard gas attack and was hospitalised in Pasewalk. While there, Hitler learned of Germany's defeat, and—by his own account—upon receiving this news, he suffered a second bout of blindness.
Hitler described the war as "the greatest of all experiences", and was praised by his commanding officers for his bravery. His wartime experience reinforced his German patriotism and he was shocked by Germany's capitulation in November 1918. His bitterness over the collapse of the war effort began to shape his ideology. Like other German nationalists, he believed the Dolchstoßlegende (stab-in-the-back myth), which claimed that the German army, "undefeated in the field", had been "stabbed in the back" on the home front by civilian leaders, Jews, Marxists, and those who signed the armistice that ended the fighting—later dubbed the "November criminals".
Did you write this all by yourself? Well done
I see Wikipedia is another thing that you're unfamiliar with.
Wikipedia is shit, pretty much anyone can make edits to it. Anyone with half a clue on how to research knows that
Yet according to you Hitler had nothing to do with WWI and he may as well not have even existed prior to the outbreak of WWII.
Where did I say that?
Bullshit campaignerI know a lot of boomers who don’t even know if Hitler was from the first or Second World War.
Yes, how the **** are you a mod, you’re an extremely dumb campaigner with little wit, humour and sense of irony.Oh right, you twisted my post from above to suit your agenda
Not in most cases.Isn’t that basically the job description?
It's been mentioned twice but it's so disgusting that it deserves yet another.Millennial Reality TV Star: Teaching Students About World War II Is Bad For Their Mental Health.
After candidates on Great Britain’s “The Apprentice” revealed they did not know which years World War II began and ended, prompting criticism of them on social media, a British reality TV star told “Good Morning Britain” that schools should not spend much time on the subject of World War II...www.dailywire.com
Has this been mentioned ??
Bloody Millenials.
Btw, I stopped by another climate change/F the Police rally in Bourke St before the Melbourne City game yesterday arvo, I dare say the numbers there were roughly split evenly between Millenials, Gen Xers and Boomers.
I suspect the media seems to target the Millenials/ Younger aged protesters because it's easier to discredit their movement as the actions of naive, bored ignorant kids, just looking to cause trouble.
