    I feel truly bad that younger generations didn’t experience the freedom and optimism of the 80’s and much of the 90’s. There were major social problems, many of which I’m grateful we’ve made significant progress on. But for a kid living in a relatively peaceful area, it was a great time to grow up. Lots of space to adventure and create, as well as hours and hours of bonding with friends and sometimes getting into a little trouble. I’m sure people still have experiences like that, but they seem rarer, and kids feel a lot more burdened. I hope we are able to re-integrate some of the positive elements of my childhood and adolescence into our more connected modern world.

      i hope so too. i would've loved to experience the 90's, but unfortunately i grew up in the 2010's (which was still kind of a good time period to be a kid in my opinion but still, i wish i was a millennial at times too ._,)
      PS - my oldest half brother grew up in the mid-late 2000's (he's an older gen z, kinda close to a millennial) so i grew up with some things that millennials might have had as kids (such as a nintendo ds, i would play nintendogs on there so much lol)

    • @toohopeful160
      @toohopeful160 4 роки тому +302

      I think there's a few reasons for that:
      1. Around the time they were becoming parents, there was an economic prosperity they got to enjoy along with gen X, and since it came with their coming of age, I think many associated their own hard work with that prosperity, and so they think millenials and gen Zs are just lazy if the world around them is collapsing and they can't fix that.
      2. While there were definitely many protests for civil rights during the boomer era, the same issues of systematic racism and classism remained. A lot of white baby boomers never interacted with a black person in their life, and that applies to other minorities. The rich live in rich neighborhoods, mixed communities are an infrequent occurrence nowadays too, and that means these people never really got an outside perspective. The age of the internet allows us to interact with people from different races, religions, ethnicities and sexuality, and the anonymity of the internet also helps a lot of LGBT folk be public about their sexuality.
      3. This one is more of a hunch based on personal experience and kinda relates to my previous point: not all boomers went around protesting, a lot of them enjoyed their privileges and never questioned the racial prejudice they were taught from young age, so to them the ones protesting were barbaric and violent because they didn't see why they were protesting in the first place. That's the case with my gen X (close to millennial) parents talking about the BLM protests going on.
      There's probably other factors, but that should roughly explain it.

    A "young" Gen-X'er here. Meaning my teen years were during the nineties when Gen-X's mood went from manic to depressive. No wonder the 90s saw a high water mark for the Goth subculture (and yes, we could have a long TEDIOUS debate on the difference between Goth and Emo). Interesting thing is that the things that were around in MY childhood seem to have formed the foundation for North American pop culture going forward. Transformers? Still around. My Little Pony? Still around. I was born in the same year the first Star Wars movie came out. He-Man and She-Ra? Getting revivals on Netflix.

    • @robinchesterfield42
      @robinchesterfield42 8 місяців тому

      YES! I'm Gen-X as well, and it was an...interesting time. For example, people think of the '80s, they think "Colors! Video games! Legwarmers! BIG HAIR!" and yes, those things were there...but the Cold War was still going on, and in many cases that meant we were blasting super-cheerful music to NOT THINK ABOUT THAT. The '80s are one of those really cognitive dissonance decades--I mean, the song "99 Luftballoons" alone. It's an insanely catchy, happy-sounding song ABOUT nuclear war!
      Then the '90s and everything went both grunge and flannel but somehow also neon and Spice Girls at the same time, attitudes were cheerier than today but pop music started getting really depressing lyrics-wise, in many cases, and we were doing the Macarena at the same time as the cool kids in your class might have--gasp!--a CELL PHONE!
      Because yeah, us Xers are also from a transitional era for technology, same as Milennials--the younger of us, at least, TOTALLY grew up in a time where the beginnings of modern computer technology were (sometimes) all around us, but we ALSO did a lot of "go play outside!" We literally grew up alongside computers. I can remember roughly what age I was when I first heard about/used things that we use all the time now--like I learned BASIC in elementary school. Suddenly one day, when I was 13?, the school computers had this thing called a "word processor" with a "spell check". I drew my first digital pictures using the embryonic version of Microsoft Paint (it was called DrawPerfect at the time!), and my gaming systems went from an Atari 2600 to an NES to a Sega Genesis to a Playstation (well technically, the playstation was my brother's. He's an ALMOST-Milennial.)
      And yet, we also were possibly the last generation to truly have the wild rogue-kid freedom of just running around all day with NO way to contact your parents in your pocket at all times, climbing on things we shouldn't climb on and hanging upside down from the jungle gym without anybody having a heart attack. This of course wasn't smart, but we also had the luxury of not constantly worrying about getting SHOT at school! No, just the ordinary mean-girl/bullying stuff...
      Anyway, I hope you enjoyed (or at least could tolerate :P) my Ted Ramble. Cheers, from a late-1974 kid with an actual My Little Pony and Rubik's Cube on her desk, right now. Because yes. :)

    As you get older, remember that even the Boomers started off as hippies and socially progressives for their time. Now we tease them for being socially conservative. Let it be a lesson of how important it is to self-evaluate, stay educated and listen to new POVs all throughout your life. And also to be a little more patient when dealing with older generations who haven't caught up with new times.

      No, it's because all those hippies and protesters and revolutionaries like the Black Panthers were basically murdered. During the 80's the FBI collaborated with drug lords in poor/working neighborhoods to deminish the capacities of revolutionaries. For example, in Spain, heroine went "casually" rampant on revolutionary niches, while at the same time, making a bastard and dull version of protest culture called "La Movida Madrileña", so young people could get cringed and if joining only the surface level.

Our times were a rebellion against the mid-70s flamboyance, so plain was the vibe. Also growing up when AIDS was thought of as a very long and slow, awful death sentence, and high schoolers were getting it (this was long before the treatments we have today) it really kinda cut down on the “free love” of the boomers, or the “hookup culture” that came later….

It was all gloomy desperate "please just listen to us" type stuff. Now there's tiktok lmao. I'm 26 and my baby sister is 18. It's so funny how differently we express ourselves.

Wearing a worn out blood stained uniform and boots, having their hair braided up with ribbons and pinned under their military cap, carrying a weapon. They went through hell basically, and their culture was all about keeping hope and persistence, that it's going to end well. ("Oh the war, what you, ignoble, have done. We have smoke and woe instead of weddings. Our girls gifted their white dresses to their little sisters and went away, soldier by a soldier. Boots, you can't be with them and the green wings of shoulder straps. We'll be strong, we'll be brave, we'll be persistent, not afraid of bullets nor grenades. And after all, we will try to come back. Something like that is the "Greatest gen" vibe. ).
      As for the silent gen it's the war kids, shy and sickly - they tend to have a lower height, and also the beatnik vibes. Also the first gen for females to cut off their hair and wear it loose.

We've grown up with every other week hearing about a trusted member of society being arrested, or under investigation for unspeakable things. We get all these warnings about climate change shoved down our throat and are expected to just be OK with the fact we're being told the world as we know it could end in OUR lifetime. We're thrown into politics and are forced into choosing a side because in this day in age the mindset is "if your not with me, you're against me." Not to mention hate crimes, school shootings, global pandemics, threats of another world war, etc. Over 55% of our generation is depressed and we have some of the highest suicide rates of any generation. It feels like all the other generations problems are being dumped on us and WE are the ones expected to fix it.

      I mean just because they protested certain things, doesn't mean they weren't awful in other ways. And not everyone was a hippie at the time either, even within the same generation, in actuality it's probably pretty similar to black lives matter groups and protests, they're relatively common but not everyone is with the movement unfortunately.
