"Without Values" Yeah, it's amazing what gets rubbed off when the social contract has been lit on fire.

Hey look! The boomers are shitting on Gen Z now!

Millennial-Super-Trick: Ignore them. It drives boomers crazy.

This, but in reverse: Gen X have been ignored so much that they have to pretend that they're causing it themselves on purpose 😉

They REAL Forgotten Generation is two generations younger than the official one..

My preferred method is sending them to retirement homes and not visiting.

Can you imagine how horrible it was for those of us whose parents are boomers? They were unstoppable.

[-] Clent@lemmy.world 30 points 4 months ago

They blamed millennials for being too educated and now blame gen z for not being educated enough, they're apparently the only generation that got it just right. Convenient.

And by values of course they mean racism, sexism and bigotry.

People aged 19 on average are less educated than older ones? Who could have expected that?

[-] count_dongulus@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Older gen Z is in their mid 20s. Higher education enrollment rates are declining. I don't see much wrong, factually, with that point of the assessment.

This is in great part an effect from the pandemic. It remains to be seen where this trend ends up.

[-] Navigator@jlai.lu 5 points 4 months ago

The wrong is that older people know more, because they had more time to learn things.

What's sad is older people actually knowing less than gen-z or gen-y...

less educated, more depressed, less values

Can you blame them? I feel bad for the kids, they've never known a world with hope. The world has always been shitty, but at least a lot of us got to grow up naieve to it
