I feel there's more nuance to this and this is an inaccurate and disingenuous generalisation.

A very small portion of baby boomers and gen x were involved in this compared to the masses who simply exist as sheep.

The "enlightened" ones are a minority in every generation from what I can see.

I also feel this whole my generation > your generation is just another mechanism of segregation. Instead let us bring forth our collective knowledge of setting VCR times and laugh about getting to the last floppy/stiffy disk in a set and finding corruption because... magnets.

Yeah I dont understand why the whole generational thing has become so heated. People like to cheer for their own team I guess. If we all stopped arguing about who has better technical skills/life skills and focused on the deeply manipulative class warfare being waged on us by corrupt and powerful entities we might all have a comfortable enough life to not have to argue about who has more technical/life skills.
