So that would make Gen-x from 1965-1983. And that would make Millennials 1984-2002, HENCE WHY THEY'RE CALLED MILLENNIALS TO BEGIN WITH BECAUSE THEY'RE THE FIRST GENERATION BORN IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM! JFC! LMAO! The worst generation the world has ever seen is so narcissistic that they have to define themselves at the expense of everyone else. Only THEY can span 18 years. right? Everyone else has to span 14 or 12, right?? Un f**king believable. I cant wait for the worst generation the world has ever seen to die off already.

They were most affected as young adults by the housing crisis. They remember the world before TECH, rotarty phones and understand they have been screwed. Millennials - born 1985/1987 to 2000 - zeigeist 2008 (Obama), every has to be fair, entitlement and BLM activism. Most often kids of Boomers. GenZ - born 1998 to 2008 - zeigeist - social media, cancel culture, they are the backlash to this crap. More conservative than Millennials. They are most often kids of GenX. |

But Gen Y was forgotten and renamed Millennials. But Mills were supposedly born 90’s and into 2000’s. Now is Gen Z. I’d say born from 2010 onward. But others say they are older… |

Millennials are more likely grandkids to boomers. At earliest born in 1998... You are confusing millennials and gen-z also called zoomers. Most millenials are mid-thirties. A generation is roughly 20 years. Millenials, for statistical studies (varies slightly), is typically considered 1981-2000. A good question is what collective trauma did this generation face? Boomers heard of Kennedy assassination, reported by the radio news. Gen-X witnessed the Challenger exploding on late night news. Millenials witnessed 9/11 on live tv news. Zoommers saw the Pandemic roll out via their pocket news smart phones. Tech they grew up with is another way to think about it. They say millenials still use a phone as a phone and make calls, gen-zers only text or social media message, gen-xers love their email, and boomers have adapted well to facebook as a way to reconnect to long lost pals. Millenials remember a world before the internet and are thus almost obsessed with the nostalgia of the early 90s, zoomers collective consciousness exist almost entirely on the internet, gen-xers use the internet for profits and porn, most boomers use it to poke people on Facebook. These are easy concepts to understand, I hope this helps clear up some confusion. Millenials are often hated because of the actions of the zoomers, which is unfair. They are also expected to have accomplished the same as gen-xers which is also unfair since the world permanently has changed and been at war since 9/11. Boomers fail to grasp that the country and currency is circling the toilet drain and they saw everything at its peak and had the most opportunities to amass wealth. They sunk the ship and set up their kids, millenials, to be as narcissistic as they are. Except the millenials need to make 100k now just to live a life even remotely similar to how the boomers lived and most have been extremely humbled by this. Millenials also seem to get along best with the generations before and after them. I feel mostly bad for the boomers and zoomers, they are the least self-actualized due to most of their life being pretty stable with few challenges. Millenials and gen-xers had their entire worlds turned upside down between 9/11 and the housing and .com bubbles. Most millenials I know are hard working and trying to improve their lives and care about others. This cannot be said about the zoomers who are literally dumb as rocks due to their smart phones.

User ID: 80952352 United States 07/04/2022 09:08 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The last decade has been younger millenials and gen z, their memes and words are foreign to older millennials. For us older millennials why are we lumped in with the the younger millenials and gen z? I think a fair divider is those who grew up in the early 90's versus those who grew up with cellphones. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77996452 There’s a mini generation — Oregon Trail — analogue childhood. We still had pay phones… [link to socialmediaweek.org (secure)] We were the first group of high school kids to do research for papers both online and in an old-fashioned card catalogue, which many millennials have never even heard of by the way (I know because I asked my 21-year-old intern and he started stuttering about library cards). Because we had one foot in the traditional ways of yore and one foot in the digital information age, we appreciate both in a way that other generations don’t. We can quickly turn curmudgeonly in the face of teens who’ve never written a letter, but we’re glued to our smartphones just like they are. Those born in the late 70s and early 80s were the last group to have a childhood devoid of all the technology that makes childhood and adolescence today pretty much the worst thing imaginable. We were the last gasp of a time before sexting, Facebook shaming, and constant communication. Last Edited by ShakyMirror on 07/04/2022 09:09 AM |
