Weird, the stereotype I’ve seen everywhere is that don’t know how to do anything for themselves

I see Boomers saying that…usually calling the 20 year olds “millennials”.
Most millennials know they’ve been dealt an even shittier hand than we were.

I see Millenials bemoaning Gen Z helplessness all the time. I think the only generation thinking or Gen Z as capable are the Gen Z themself.

Maybe the people complaining drown out everyone else. But people like David Hogg and Greta Thunberg are Gen Z and out doing more than most to fix the problems they see. Like maybe people complain that Gen Z has no idea what files on a computer are, but that seems like a different thing than helplessness.

Generalizations only work so well. Some millennials chastise Gen Z and some support them.
I am an Eldritch millennial and everyone that I know thinks Gen Z is pretty awesome. We’re just trying to hold the world together for them.
