Liberennials

This word is a mix of the word liberal and millennial. I decided to go with this because there much like a difference in people's beliefs within a political party, there is also a difference in beliefs due to people's age. Liberennials is a word to describe millennials who are not traditionally liberal in their political beliefs, but a different kind of liberal. I specifically used this word for in place of "millennials" whenever talking or reading about young democrats or young Bernie Sanders supporters. A few people took offense to the word, but I quickly told them it was not intended to be an insult, just to differentiate between liberal and conservative millennials and young and old democrats. It hasn't really caught on, and I think most people have ignored it for the most part.
