Gen Z vs Millennials 

Yes

ight

Yes

pog championship !

Nice

This is exactly what I’m saying. It’s manufactured beef.

fr like I haven't seen a single person from gen z care lol

you and me both brother

Oh dude you're right

Holy shit you might be unto something there

i feel that cary, i really do

Ready the swords!

96/97 is weird because we aren't really either generation. I watched Rugrats and Animaniacs, but also Phineas and Ferb and Brandy and Mr Whiskers. In the grand scheme of things, it's stupid and pointless.

Oh hey there

Bruh I am EXACTLY 4 months older than this guy. I mean, not that anybody would care but it's funny how the numbers line up.

*spray paints you* nuh uh

I mean....checks out tbh

Wait, that's an argument anyone makes? "You suck because you like instrumentation and good song structure!" I like quite a few zoomer songs, but man, who hates Mumford and Sons? People with freezer temp IQs? Too many notes played at once? Oh no, he strummed an entire chord! We're losing our freedoms to an Orwellian plutocratic one-world conspiracy, and we're arguing over this? If this is where our focus is, we deserve all the slavery we're going to get.

So valid

​@@manictigerNo one is saying this or making this argument on any platform but twitter, its basically not real

They've become what they hate the most 😔

@@-Oddity- my bad man next time I’ll try to be born earlier

and its what the boomers hated about the great generation...This cycle keeps going and WILL keep going. Gen Z will do the same to the next lot.

I hope to not become that shit since the younger generation seems cool even if at times I don't understand them

@@michaelwells9378 It’s already happening lol. Gen Z people getting mad at little kids for not knowing about shows we used to watch.

hello one topic I am subscription

If this was Reddit I'd be giving you an award.

We cracked the code

Big yikes on Eddys part

I honestly agree with this so much. I have some gripes with Gen Z, but I have some gripes with *every* generation, including my own. I’m probably a just a little bit older than you, I skipped an early grade, and was in high school for the late 90’s and early 2000’s. Having close to a whole generation age gap between my sister and I, who has always been one of my best friends, I’ve been told I’m a “Millennial/Gen X Cusper” (sounds a bit too much like astrology to me) because I grew up with and loved a lot of the things that my sister did, and we came from a liberal hippie family that didn’t act like Boomers, and in fact thought most of them were assholes. I like my skinny jeans because they’re more comfortable to me. I don’t even have a hair part because I usually have bangs and like to tease my hair if I’m not wearing a wig. (80’s much?) None of that shit matters; just do you. In my lines of work, I spend time and communicate with all sorts of people from other generations, and only two instances have really given me a slap back about Gen Z, because I’m not used to it, having two super sweet Gen Z nieces. One, while trying to give genuine constructive criticism to someone, which I realised later may have been a little harsh, someone else jumped all over me and told me that everything I said was untrue, to check my facts and get woke, other rude things, etc. Another time, I responded to a video essay that I thought was really well done, and again, someone other that the original creator was like “TLDR; 16-35 is f*cking old.” Which baffled me. Yes, I tend to leave longer comments, because I’m not going to bother with leaving a comment and not truly say what’s fully on my mind. But I never said anything about being old. I don’t feel old. I don’t think I’m old. No one looks at me and thinks I’m old - often people think I’m *part of* Gen Z, even though it isn’t my stage to stand on any more, it’s not my spotlight. I just stated that I related and appreciated what the person had discussed, even though I was a bit outside of the 16-35 year old audience he was directing his piece to. Both times I got kind of irritated but in the end, I was just like “Thanks, that doesn’t really hurt, if you’re hurting, I hope it’s not for long because this kind of thing isn’t worth it. Cheers.” Even two years after the posting of this video, it still feels like any small step could add firepower to an unnecessary and really dumb war. In just a few years, more of us than ever will be working together and age won’t be anything but a number to yet another generation. It’s a part of the cycle. This comment is also really long. I want to say that I’m sorry, but I’m not. I’m a published writer and video game creator. I don’t have the guts to get behind a camera and have a RU-vid channel (and therefore, I commend anyone who does, that is not using their platform in a toxic way). My words and my art are what I’ve got to work with. No one has to read or engage with my comments if they don’t want to. But sometimes I think it’s nice to be able to tell someone, regardless of generation, what they did was great and not have to squeeze it into the character maximum of a Tweet. So, I’m going to live my life and do what I do, maintaining whatever cool I have left, and hope I still get the chance to meet cool new people, continue writing and illustrating, and taking things in stride, skinny jeans, skinny legs, and all. (No one worry or sound the alarm, that joke was for me; I love dad jokes *and* Tom Robbins.). 💖

@@user-fv9se5op4g So do I. I personally think it’s too early for the revival, as I’m still waiting for the 90’s revival to stick (which I’ve come to realize probably won’t ever happen, because those of us who lived though and loved the nineties will never truly let it go - sometimes I think I’m forever living in 1992 and I’m totally okay with that - people will be trying to pull the 90’s out of our cold, dead, hands), but the music of the early aughts, in particular, especially after 2002 was just amazing. I still listen to it often, and am always [probably a bit overly] excited when I hear it used in a film or series. It gives me a feeling of nostalgia that’s just a little bit different from the others, but I can’t seem to place my finger on why.

current gen z that was born in the early 2000s, yeah nothing changed lol. I've gotten annoyed by kids 6-7 years younger than me and I feel like a grumpy old man. trends go in and out and kids will always think adults are lame

lmao im a gen z dude who sometimes has middle parted hair and wears skinny jeans a lot so I don't give a fuck about any of this

Absolutely same lol

It’s because people on tiktok and Twitter are genuinely mentally imbalanced

You would classify as Zillenial if you wanted, although that defeats the point in the video.

Don't Gen Z people also wear skinny jeans? I'm confused...

@@auxorion yeah that’s the thing. It’s all stupid. Everyone is hypocritical and it’s pointless to make fun of people for wearing a piece of fabric that you don’t like.

I am a millenial, my brother and sister are gen z because they are 13 and 11 years younger than me. My sister made a joke about my side parting. I was like honestly you should see how bad i look with a middle parting 🤣 just do what suits your face shape, fuck anyone else's opinion 😅

Genz kids dont even need to live long enough

Exactly! Older people have complained about younger people since the dawn of time! Like in the 60s when the Silent Generation complained about young boomers being hippies or whatever

Gen x somehow just evaded all of it

Right? I’m 29 and sincerely hope I don’t randomly start picking fights with children when I hit 40. 😂

millenials aren't that old though. also isn't everyone mad at each other anyway?

@@sweetbunnybun To high schoolers, pretty much everyone who is 28(ish) and up are “old” plus when you’re that age it’s really the only comeback or power you have over someone older. And when the reasons for millennials appearing old are that trivial, it’s pretty laughable how worked up the older millennials seem to be.

Also, he HAS been "canceled" many times ie by his many scandals and controversies like he's pretty problematic and we've been known since he jumped onto the scene lol

it's a damn joke anyway. no one's "cancelling" eminem and "cancel culture" is a fucking meme. literally, all it is is people calling out rich people, to almost universally zero effect because, surprise! *they're rich.* i'm so fucking over it dude.

I agree, Gen X, Millenials, and Gen Z need to unite and fight the real enemy… the boomers!

@@tegantalks9612 even GenX atp are pretty much conservative as fuck. but yes, as a commie middle GenZ, we will fight. we will. fucking. unite.

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers" - Kenneth John Freeman (1907) paraphrasing Hellenic attitudes towards children, 600-300 BCE

Can't relate from first hand experience. I remember kids my generation (same as uploader) used to look up to people in their 20s and sometimes even early 30s. Potentially xillennials and core millennials, I'm guessing? Barely knew anyone that genuinely thought our generation was somehow cooler than those generations of people. Many popular things in media were from the 90s in the 2000s so I grew up becoming influenced by it. Many kids used to pose as a 90s kid online and making their age older thinking it was the cool shit to do. The boomers were not seen as cool. But that's probably because they were grumpy middle aged teachers' typical age.

And on and on until the end of time....

The worst thing is that both assertions are correct. Conundrum.

It’s part of the natural cycle of finding your identity when you’re a teen. Who am I, where do I stand etc. But a few of fellow millenials took it as a personal attack. Sigh

Also, “skinny jeans?” c’mon

@@beefar0ni they were? Good that I never caught on to yhe trend wooo Ahead of the curve

Speak for yourself poor

Like Eddy pointed out, very few millennials have yet to enter government positions where we could affect real change. GenZ and Millenials are both still owned by the same old establishment masters. Fighting each other is merely a distraction - and only helps our owners.

Meh you find arseholes in every generation, are you really that shocked

there were a bunch of articles with gen z specifically ripping on millennials. i think millennials are just sick of getting it from the older and younger generations.

This is another boomer trap to keep us divided, stand strong friend.

Millennials beef with boomers because boomers destroyed the economy and planet. Gen z is beefing with millennials because they like harry potter and millennials are just having a little fun by making videos responding to it and the gen z and millennial thing is all fake anyway just to get views.

@@intense79nick It seems like both sides say "we're having fun" but both are actually deeply irrationally emotional and angry when they do this stuff. Also, insanely broad terms. "The millennials" and "The Gen Z" are not doing anything to eachother. It's a couple of adult children and a bunch of children who think they're adults getting hurt feelings over what some articles said about style based on at absolute most like 3 interviews or a vague survey.

I think, like eddy said, its a small group of the older millennials and a small group of the younger zoomers making this a thing. Obviously there were some gen-z kids upset too as seen in their tik toks, so its not too one-sided, but i think its definitely a small minority of people in both groups that actually care.
