My point was it isn't a Gen X, Y or Z thing.
Kids thinking they're better than Boomers are deluding themselves. We have the proof it's getting worse, not better.
Who's making it worse? Was it the boomers who skyrocketed the price of everything, deadlocked the political system in the country so no change to the status quo could be made, or is it the youth who are misguided by those who should be their protectors?
I think you'll find less misogyny, body shaming, and entitlement among the youth either way.
