Millenials love blaming stuff on other generations, they just go for boomers instead. It'll probably be Gen Alpha next. Kinda already is with the scorn over stuff popular with alpha, such as skibidi toilet and 6 7.

Ah yes, being made fun of for making up words is the same as being blamed for entire industries falling.

I've actually seen a lot of millennials likening 6 7 to 1337 and such that millennials made a big deal over at that age.

1337 was definitely a late gen x meme that millenials appropriated, went well back into the 90s before America was OnLine.

Millennials span birth year from ‘81-‘96. Plenty of time for coming up with 58008 (upside down) and 1337.

Yeah, and a lot of boomers disagreed with the characterization of millenials in the media, too. Generations are not a monolith, but often the differences between them are exploited by the ruling class to drive a stake between members of the working class.
