Pictured: Millennials talking about the silly wizard power fantasy like it’s Shakespeare. Harry Potter truly is to Generation Y as Star Wars was to Generation X. It reminds them of a “better time” when they could remain ignorant of all the horrible things happening in the world (paid for by their tax money).
I think there is a difference between hating someone for enjoying something childish or whimsical, and getting annoyed with someone because they act like their obsession with something from their childhood makes them better than you, that their treat their own emotional stunting as a virtue.
