You know all those Indians that have moved here, well their Americanized offspring are in the process of graduating high school and college.

Employers don’t care about how connected they are, they are about work ethic, showing up, getting things done.

[proust]

Not impressed with Zoomers so far.

We need to be nice to young people and convert them to conservativism.

Don’t let ONLY liberals be their friends.

[allendale]

People who buy into this nonsense are just stupid. If history and literature has demonstrated anything, it has demonstrated that the same personality types and behavior patterns have been present throughout human history. These politically correct pronouncements are at their core self gratifying delusions.

FYI

Z is the last generation which began in 1996.

Reason is the Mayan calender ended in 2012...Z forecasted to be the last.

There are a lot of good kids out there. Depends on their upbringing. As always.

Look like some need to push back from the groceries.

Apu? Thought they specialized in c-store administration.

Whatever plans they have will be dashed in post Trump America. Deprivation and horror are coming their way, hard.

I have always found this grouping of people into millenials, Gen X, Y, Z somewhat arbitrary. I was curious about birth rate stats and found this chart. Interesting for a number of reasons. I imagine the muslims and illegals will bump up the stats in the future.

[a fool in paradise]

>>The first wave of Generation Z, those born after 1996

4 years of those are Millenials (born before 2000 and turned 18 after year 2000).

And much of the “Millenials” are actually Generation Y aka Generation whine.

Millenial is a bullstalin statistic. Not based on any generation, it is based on an epoch of history.

[piytar]

Millennial snowflakes are idiots. I know - my nephews are millennial idiots.

Also have several friends with Gen Z kids. Frankly, I am impressed with them. They are very aware the schools are trying to indoctrinate them and refuse, although they will “play the game” for now. Work hard. Incredibly smart.

“You don’t hear, ‘Facebook will change the way we connect,’ “ Casey said. “Now it’s, ‘What’s Big Brother doing to me?’ “

Well, there's hope. First finish what the British started in 1812.

[StolarStorm]

The Gen Z’s I know are awesome. They despise political correctness and don’t trust the media (or the government.) There is hope.

[Tench_Coxe]

Just some thoughts, some based on generalities:
1. Gen Z may have more in common with Gen X, which probably isn't surprising given the birth era (Silent Generation-Gen X-Gen Z axis). There are some similarities on this axis.
2. Identity politics is going to fall on deaf ears with the Gen Z bunch. And as each generation "rebels", they're going to reject the horsecrap they've been force-fed
3. They dont have the grandiose sense of entitlement of the Millennials, and may overtake them in terms of advancement due to acquiring competency as opposed to pretending competency.
4. I think the entrenched powers that be (in the US) sense this movement, and its part of the reason for open borders-drown out those who have "caught on" by importing ignorant (not using this word as a perjorative) masses who maintain a culture of dependency.

2 through 4 can be summed up by Gen Z is going to be less impressed by posers and more impressed by doers. The future may not be bad.

I predict that the statistics on business failures will need to be rewritten...
