Gen X sitting around doing fuck all as usual.
Weren’t the statistics from the last election a big deal because Gen Z actually didn’t align with Millennials?
I’m pretty sure I saw people getting mad at the number of young voters who opted to vote for Trump
Could be wrong though
The generations are:
- Boomer: anybody older than me who I disagree with.
- Millennial: anybody younger than me who I disagree with
- Gen Z: anyone who uses whichever social networks are taboo at the moment.
The are no other generations.
Let’s ignore discrepancies in economics, geography, race and culture and suggest people behave, en mass, based on the decades they were born in.
This is just astrology for the politically feeble.
Hey, it’s no worse of a grouping than any of the categories you mentioned.
Fuck the generational war. The class war is real and it’s one sided, it’s basically a class genocide.
I disagree.
It’s a question of granularity and correlation.
I think culture is a pretty useful grouping for assessing a lot of traits and behaviours. Sure, it depends on the culture and the trait you are assessing, but as groupings go there are entire academic fields devoted to the study of how those things work.
Similarly with economic factors and class. These can be useful in describing proportions of a population. And how they react relative, again, providing the trait we are assessing is relative to that factor.
I know you are probably just being glib, and you are right that and generalisation can be pretty useless. But I still think the exceedingly broad “generation” is the most useless.

That Gen Z fighter is going to turn around, hit their trainer in the nuts and call them a boomer.
Gen X: Whatever.
Pitting ‘generations’ against each other is a classic tactic to divide the people on meaningless bullshit. Don’t fall for it.
Culture war is a means to distract us from class war
This seems more accurate.
The top labels are reversed. I doubt a lesbian icon would be something boomers would appreciate.
Not to mention her capacity for change.
The first woman in space was a lesbian and I wouldn’t want it any other way.
You’re gonna need it kiddo.
Gen X was Trump’s biggest supporter in the last election. More than boomers even.
Obviously not true of every Gen X’er, but when Gen Z talks about boomers they’re usually inadvertently referring to Gen X.
And the current poster child for Gen X is Elon Musk.
I am disappointed but not surprised by my generation at all. Last generation where general racism and other boomer traits could really take hold thanks to boomer parents passing them on. We’re also getting old enough for some of us to embrace that “get off my lawn” mentality.

We were never known for our political acumen, I’m afraid.
“Caring about things is cringe, like, gag me. Voting doesn’t do ANYTHING so I sit it out unlike you chumps, and I’m telling my kids the same thing.”
“Why aren’t any interests represented? That must be somebody’s fault. Somebody who isn’t me. Hey, did you get your tickets for Star Wars Celebration yet?”
Whatever you do, don’t become a referee, they will all turn on you.
You can always tell you’ve become a stupid person when any of these generation terms come up in your speech in any capacity.
As a millennial I … welll … uh … fuck you’re right
Typical. Slacking, unseen.
Gen X is usually on the boomer’s side.
GenX has been fighting boomers from the start, we’re just exhausted now.
GenX has been fighting boomers from the start,
Bullcrap. We were too busy pretending politics didn’t affect us to fight anyone.
Fighting? Us Gen Xers followed in the system the boomers laid out. What fighting??? The older Gen Xers got past the door. The younger half got shut out.
Thanks for the apathy, I don’t think it worked but it sure as shit looked cool.
In the same way boomer hippies were “fighting” against their progenitors, sure.
Wearing flannel and complaining about the status quo does not make you a freedom fighter.
Gen z - the generation raised by their boomer grandparents, dresses like them, I have a big surprise for you how they think… Yaba daba skibidi toilet dooo!
