These are millenials. They are cretins by nature. The "did everything right" statement is used often when these people are upset they didn't get an outcome they felt entitled to. These adult children believe that "success" is just a list of instructions like a board game and that if you do all of the things other people told you to do, you'll get what you want.
No savings, vehicle, or home for most of the generation? "We did everything right, the system has failed us!" No mention of how millenials, "the most educated generation", are also the generation with the most single mothers, the highest rates of drug addiction, and most of their monthly income is spent on drugs, funko pops, and video games. Nor will they admit that their "education" was in fields of study that offer the individual no real-world skills and offer society at-large no value.
Didn't get that promotion? "I did everything right, the company is wrong!" No acknowledgement that showing up late more often than not, being unproductive on Monday after partying all weekend, and spending half of the day socializing instead of working means you're not fit for more responsibility, and just being not a white male doesn't cut it.
Caught a virus? "I did everything right, society should have protected me!" No accepting that you got sick because you were more interested in having fun than following the rules we all learn as kids: Wash your hands, respect everyone's personal bubble, and don't touch strangers. No amount of subordinating your own critical thinking and personal responsibility to others alleviates your own poor decision making.
