Millennials and Gen Z also don’t like it when Gen X applies their trademark nihilism to important issues.
“They always invalidate our issues, especially around climate change and LGBTQ issues.”

Many specifically complained about the ‘Facebook mom’ stereotype.
‘Why do these moms spend hours and hours a day arguing about nothing on Facebook? It’s like it’s the only thing that gives his life meaning.
“The worst part is definitely telling all your friends personal details about your children and posting photos of a child’s mental breakdown online.”
A third said, ‘Please smear Gen X more.’ My parents never matured past high school, just petty fights and a Facebook addiction.
