I think it was around 15 years ago but definitely after the 2008 financial crisis that boomers just did a 180 and started telling White kids that college was stupid and they should learn a trade instead.

This is after spending the last 30 years preaching college as the only way you can get anywhere in life.

You're literally going to be working at Mcdonalds for the rest of your life if you don't go to college. Thats what they told us.
"dumass kid shouldve gone into college"
"i went and im unemployed and full of debt"
"dumbass kid shouldve gone into trades"
"i went and now lefties control all the institutions/my job got taken by infinite third worlders"
"dumbass kid shouldve gone into college"
*repeat indefinitely*
