Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson believes that the present generation is looking for reasons to be offended and that disrespects people who fought for their freedom and equality
UPDATED JAN 11, 2019

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson slams what he calls the "snowflake generation" and has accused all those who get "easily offended" of "putting society backward". The 46-year-old made it crystal clear that he had no time for whiners and those who constantly complain.

As reported by the Daily Star, Dwayne shared, "I don’t have to agree with what somebody thinks, who they vote for, what they voted for, what they think, but I will back their right to say or believe it. That’s democracy. So many good people fought for freedom and equality — but this generation is looking for a reason to be offended. If you are not agreeing with them then they are offended — and that is not what so many great men and women fought for."
