Generational warfare is as old as time. I’m under no illusion that the elders of the 1600s also complained about how the upcoming generation was losing its values and work ethic and becoming more entitled than their precious elite cohort of humans. That being said, we needn’t be dishonest or moral relativists. Not all generations are created equal, and not all generations reap the same amount of attention and scorn. Just ask Gen X. Yeah, you forgot about them, didn’t you? We all did.
