Gen Z and Boomers Tension
Gen-Z holds Boomers in contempt due to several reasons. Firstly, Gen-Z perceives Boomers as having consumed and wasted significant resources, leaving limited opportunities and a deteriorated environment for younger generations.
Secondly, there is a perception that Boomers have not adequately addressed pressing issues such as climate change, contributing to current environmental challenges.
Additionally, the economic struggles faced by Gen-Z, including high costs of living, student debt, and job insecurity, are often attributed to policies and decisions made by Boomers.
Moreover, there is a generational gap in communication and technology usage, leading to misunderstandings and frustration between the two groups.
This gap can manifest in workplaces where older generations may struggle to adapt to new technologies, while younger generations may feel hindered by outdated practices.
These perceptions contribute to a cycle of intergenerational tension, where each generation tends to criticize the one that follows.
Boomer interpretation: Gen-Z has an artificially inflated sense of self-importance.

🤔 I ain't heared that afore! I had to look up 'Gen Z' to make sure I got the right aged kids. I have heard that they aren't keen on working at all and consider 9 - 5 as slavery.
Sounds like they are robbing themselves of a future... now you say that they think 'Boomers' have taken their future; I guess Boomers are the generation right after mine - I was born during WWII, not after, if that makes any difference.
I sort of doubt that Gen Z even heard of WWII let alone 'Boomers'. When asked who we fought in WWII they can rarely answer correctly and when asked who we fought for independence in the American Revolution they often say 'Japan'!
I hope Gen Z will realize they have been screwed by a lot of devious folks and that it is up to them to pull themselves up by the boot straps and join humanity! Like it or not, they are the future of the country and they have to do better than just clean toilets of 'New' Americans - aggressive foreigners.
