Don't worry, when the Millennia's and Zoomers are running the world, Alpha and Beta will be writing the exact same cruft as above, and the cycle will continue forever.

Now get off my lawn!


Two differences between the generations this time; inequality and job opportunities

The old snark doesn't seem to apply as Boomers and GenX were able to launch their adult lives 20-30 years ago.

The olds aren't even hiding their ageism. Hilarious watching them complain about virtual reality while popping blue pills to simulate virility.


I don't know that they will be. Millennials and Zoomers aren't lead poisoned.

>GenX? Yeah, it's not just the Boomers despite the memes.

No its not. This is pure ageism on your part. You either don't know much about GenX or are just making it up. Both generations are vastly different. GenX being the smallest generation has very little influence on the economy , politics or culture.


Physics is ageist. Our financially engineered economy GenX is currently benefiting from is ageism against youth.

GenX is the only generation that has not soured on Trump since he started his second term. They're absorbing the economic shocks just fine.

I am an older Millennial who has worked with GenX for two decades.

They have been the worst colleagues. More often sexist, racist, classist, nihilistic than Boomer colleagues who kept it polite.

I can't recall a Millennial or GenZ coworker ever acting like any of those things.

GenX make up a huge chunk of the anti-woke crowd. Hop on TikTok and witness all the 50+ Kid Rock Stan's complain about blue haired lesbian GenZ women and trans people.

Millennials and GenZ aren't pushing those memes with the same numbers.

I have been paying attention.

Dave Chappelle, Foo Fighters, Will Smith, Brad Pitt; the backbone of the entertainment industry the last 25-30 years have little influence on our culture?

Feels like you're projecting your own out of touch with reality as mine
