I chose to write about the video that responded to the previous video we watched: 'Millennials Guide to Baby Boomers'. The content in this article basically pointed out the flaws of both the baby boomers and the millennials, as well as where each generation should be cut a little slack. It provided an overall well-balanced idea, especially when compared to the other videos we watched which clearly favored on generation over the other.
One of the strategies used in the video was humor. A lot of what the man said was meant to put down one generation or the other in a joking way, but the tone of it helped the overall message of the video. Using humor in more serious contexts helps to relate the material to the audience, and people will be more interested if it more than a straightforward argument.
Another strategy used was comparison. Obviously, the video author compared millennials with baby boomers. In my opinion this video compared in the best way possible. They made points of why each generation has issues, and how some of those issues aren't their fault. It compared the two but didn't throw out information simply to put the other down. It was informative.
