"Why Do Discussions of Millennials Always Sound Like Something From a Nature Documentary?"

"Federal Reserve head Janet Yellen imagines humans have finally begun to grasp the meaning of the millennial.

"I think we're just beginning to understand how the millennials are behaving," she told the Senate Banking Committee on Tuesday, in a statement that seems rather banal until your inner voice reads it again in your best "David Attenborough narrating Planet Earth" impression. In fact, it turns out that much of the endless commentary about millennials sounds better when repurposed as a voice-over track for a nature documentary. ("The millennials are reproducing, and their children are hungry.")"

You can also play this game with most things that are ever written about brown people in developing countries. I think it's something about recognizability, or the idea of what is civilized/appropriately human. What is being gazed at by the humans.
