I'll paraphrase a twitter comment: man I did not give a single fuck about gen x as a millenial, these posts are so weird. Maybe we're just more exposed to each other now because of social media

I'm convinced that news outlets and big tech intentionally push ageism / generational-warfare to substitute for class warfare, and divert criticism away from capitalists.

Like who decided to mark off these year ranges and put labels on them anyway, it's completely arbitrary and meaningless.
