I’ve exhausted my interest in this but
IMO generational is -relevant or pertaining to a particular generation- but what was really meant in the meme is that this is something people have talked about for a long time, in fact for multiple generations, and generations are irrelevant to what’s being discussed. Ancient would be a better adjective or time honoured, or age old. Zebra stripe debates aren’t particular to gen alpha, gen z, millenials, or boomers.
I just think generational is a trope in and of itself and is losing its meaning through over use.

I didn’t forget gen x I left them out on purpose to trigger them.

Thanks for the response!
Im not triggered though lol.
I agree with that but only from a cultural perspective, not if someone is talking generations of a family or in regards to heredity/family
