    I would check the other comments, this meme is extremely unrepresentative of any of the interactions I’ve personally had with Gen Z as a millennial. We cool with each other and bonded over the shared bullshit we’re inheriting in my experience and I’m on the older side of millennials

      All the interactions I’ve personally had with Gen z have also been great. I love Gen z.

      But when I look on social media, I see a bunch of butthurt millennials lashing out because they’re no longer relevant and are being seen as uncool. Gen-z does stuff like call our parenting into question and far too many of us do not respond with grace

        Well I ain’t a parent and won’t be becoming one so maybe that’s a blind spot for me but I really haven’t seen a lot of whinging from us online either unless it’s Fortnight related. I have seen some from Gen X and a ton from boomers irl though, I think by and large millennials and zoomers are the two most in sync generations with the most respect for one another
