Don't worry, GenZ will eventually get even more burnt out than us. They're just not there yet. We all have it rough.

Ok, but let’s not be divisive among generations over a common enemy.

No war but class war.

Millennial here. Fuck this shit - our enemy is the ultra rich and shitstains that abuse power. Pitching generations against eachother is counterproductive.

As a millennial I give zero fucks about this generational shit with those who come after us. Gen Z and Alpha have the same shit sandwich we do, with their own special horrors we didn't grow up with. We should be working with them to make this better for all of us who come after the Boomers and Gen X.

This headline reads like "kids these days can't get off their phones" as if the Boomers who wrote it aren't sending iPhone gift cards via Facebook messenger to a Nigerian prince.

Fuck this generation war bait.

This whole Gen vs Gen bullcrap is a bourgeois distraction attempt. Don't buy into any of it. There is no Gen vs Gen, it's bourgeois vs proletariat.

Of course they're not as burned out as us; they're younger and haven't been beaten down for as long. I'm sure they'll get there in time, but we need to stop this intergenerational infighting and focus on what's really important: putting everyone over 50 in camps and redistributing their wealth.

Millennials are more burned out because of having more time to have gotten burned out.

Compare people of same age. Get back to me about gen Z in 10 or 15 years and compare them to Millennails now.

Nope we're not doing this again. It's not like that. Were all equally fucked on average. Let's not be crabs in a bucket.

The most burned-out generation yet.

Everyone is fuck this gen war bait and fuck fake journalist

We're not competing. We're all being oppressed by the wealthy. It's time to unify against this shit

Divisive shitty title

Didn't know being mentally unwell is a competition, but bring it on

This comment section gives me hope.

Good job, Lemmings, for recognizing this for what it is.

These terms like "Gen X" or "Millennials" are just as meaningful as astrological signs. In other words: They aren't.

These supposed generational differences are utter nonsense. There's no scientific research behind them. There are always people with different experiences and biographical backgrounds, but no entire generation experiences the same background.

But which generation whines the most? I'm voting boomers

Gen-x here. I don't know about anyone else but I'm fried goddamn crispy.

I live in California. The minimum wage is $15/hour. This is not enough to afford rent in California. The highest paying job I've ever had was $18/hour. Still not enough to afford rent in California.

I am lucky to still have my dad. When he goes, I'm probably not going to work ever again because what the fuck is the point of working 40-60 hours a week just to still be homeless?

... for now.

Fuck this whole shitting on the younger generation shit. It's bullshit and everyone knows it.

Everyone is calling out (rightfully so) the divisive bait but I think there is some interesting reason worth discussing behind this:

Some Gen Z folks used the wisdom of millennials and just said fuck it and checked out, their lives might not be great but it’s probably stress free.

Whereas for millennials, in theory having the American dream was possible, just less likely as time progressed. They are stuck with an almost sunken cost fallacy in which they have tried so hard cause they believed with enough effort they would make it. Now that they are burned out, they are faced with the dilemma of either stop trying and waste the high efforts or keep going and maybe they will get lucky.

So in conclusion, millennials having it better can backfire in some sense.

The only reason this can be even slightly true is strictly because of age. We are ALL burnt out. They will be where millennial are in just a few years. We gotta stop this gen VS gen nonsense.

Give me 10 years they'll catch up.

The kids aren’t alright—and neither are the millennials.

But yeah. This is just a "most burned out generation so far..." thing.
