It used to be that Millennials were the great generational shame. We were accused of killing off everything from golf to the diamond industry (really), and generally being woke snowflakes who were too sensitive. Gen Z, on the other hand, were the saviour generation, waiting in the wings to swoop in with climate activism and to bring about a better world.
Now the shoe is on the other foot. Us Millennials may be considered uncool forever, but we’re the only ones who are digital natives — able to save a PDF and use keyboard shortcuts that would make our Boomer colleagues weep — but haven’t had our brains rotted by YouTube and TikTok since childhood. Meanwhile Gen Z aren’t keen on partying, or sex in movies, but apparently are getting super into fascism.
