I’ll paraphrase a twitter comment: man I did not give a single fuck about gen x as a millenial, these posts are so weird. Maybe we’re just more exposed to each other now because of social media
I’m convinced that news outlets and big tech intentionally push ageism / generational-warfare to substitute for class warfare, and divert criticism away from capitalists.
Like who decided to mark off these year ranges and put labels on them anyway, it’s completely arbitrary and meaningless.
I hope you’re being sarcastic because that kind of deranged conspiracy theory nonsense being taken seriously is why this country is so comprehensively fucked in the head.
…also, the whole genx/millenial/genz/etc labels are specifically a thing from marketing. They teach that stuff in business schools because it actually is useful to divide a population like that. The edges are gray, but people squarely in the middle of one of those demographics are more likely to be caricatures of it.
