    I hate these generation based things. Some little time ago there was odd stuff about millennials everywhere. Now Gen-Z. In a few years Gen Alpha. Then whatever comes next and so on.

    People just like to label people. And generations are just another option.

      I’m Gen X. They used to say this stuff about us too. Did you know we’re all slackers?

      Agreed, but I see plenty of Millennials and Gen-Zers making plenty of criticisms and jokes about Boomers all the time. It’s no better when we do it.

        Man, I’ve started to see it happening between just the Millennials and the Gen-Z. I assume a good chunk of it is for rage bait/views, at least that’s what I’m hoping for. It’s so much better when we’re working together to try to better the future.

            Regardless of where it’s seen, it’s still a bad habit we all need to break. It only perpetuates in creating division.

              Most of the internet traffic is bots paid for by bad actors ;)

              Consider that fact when approaching online discussions

        This whole thread is like, “Fuck YOU! We don’t have communication problems! It’s all you old fuckers!”

        Well. Would you look at that.
