    Oh, not really. Most people aren't very discerning. Based on my initial reaction to the video, hell, neither was I.

    But the front lines of the outrage war are populated by millennials. And, again, we're not all the way there yet. Give it 10-15 years.

    The Twitter outrage wars.

    Television (ALERT: NEW CARAVAN), Facebook (This is what respect for the anthem looks like!) and good ol' fashion' email (Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Re: Teleprompter and tan suit! Must read!) - those outrage wars are fronted by a more mature demographic.

    There's nothing quite like Twitter. Let's be honest.

    Outrage elected Donald Trump. That wasn’t millenials. I guess you’re refering to liberal outrage, but I still don’t see it. From my view, Hilary’s base has spearheaded the resistance. When I think of the liberal outrage machine, I picture your average university humanities professor. When I picture millenials, I picture the Fyre festival. If you’ve got any sort of evidence to back your assertion, I’d love to see it. Otherwise, I’ll fall back on the well-known demos of the politically active class, and a cross-section of Hilary voters, and a common sense appraisal of the average age of those who have reached a point in their careers where they are in position to be thought leaders

    If you're concerned about millennial / younger / liberal outrage.

    If you're concerned outrage as a whole, the user base, reach, user time and infuence of other media cannot be discounted.

    It’s that tiny sliver that looks at each situation individually and has never voted straight party
