TL;DW Lead makes you lose intelligence and your life more difficult. Gen X got the worst of it. And yes it’s backed up with research and was largely caused by capitalism.

What?
Did you literally not watch it and trying to summarize?

Not sure what you mean. That was in the video.

usually, TL;DW is for people who dont want to watch the video at the moment, but are still curious about it

It also usually accurately summarizes the video rather than misinterpreting it…
The video say it’s older millennials, people around 40ish. But explicitly states multiple times that economics is the greatest predictor of exposure.

I think you’re mixing up Gen x and Gen z. The video states that it was people who were in their 20s in the 90s. That’s mostly gen x

“GenX was hit the hardest” is a direct quote from the video, timecode 17:02
Yes there is more than just that one quote to consider, but what are you doing saying it wasn’t in the video?
