Comparing generational counter-cultures humorously. from @alfonsofrfr

The creator stands in a snowy forest and delivers a monologue comparing generational subcultures. He posits that just as children of Baby Boomers might look at old photos and see their parents as 'hippies,' the children of today's Millennial fathers will look back and see them as 'wiggers.' He expands on this humorous analogy, arguing that the cultural impact of the 'wigger' subculture from the 2000s-2010s is a significant, 'earth-shifting' phenomenon.

Transcript excerpt

No if you had parents that were baby boomers, there's a good chance that at one point you looked at old photographs of them and thought to yourself, wow. They were hippies or they were kind of hippies or they may have been hippies. Right? It's sort of, emblematic of that generation. Now that a lot of millennial guys are fathers. Right? Their kids are gonna look back at photos of them and be like, wow. My dad was wigged out. Like, he was a straight Wigger. Like like, it's so funny to compare hippies to Wiggers because I'm telling you, people are just starting to realize the impact globally in all facets of life of the 20 tens, two thousands Wigger. Like, it it might be, it's just it's more than a cultural icon. It's it's an earth shifting, population of people.
