#generation #generationalpha #genz
A generation is all the humans born AROUND the same time AND who experienced pretty much the same culture growing up. Specifically, we are talking about SOCIAL generations. That’s the generations most typically bring up today. There’s also the more traditional FAMILIAL generations, or a group of humans all on one level of a family tree. Nah man, in this video, we’re focusing on social generations.

Nope. My folks were smarter than me. I think millennials although they are younger. And all these stereotypes are incorrect. 40% of seniors live on 40k or less..many rent. Millennials I know are not glued to their phones and Mr. Beat is actually wrong about something about these groups. These terms were devised by Newsweek, LAWeekly and Bam and other periodicals, a now defunct throwaway term. The age ranges tended to change depending on the years or the throwaway newspapers.

And, as a gen z fellow, I think millennial memes are great. They’re not funny, but they’re fun. They are great at building a sense of community and are just wholesome overall.

My great grandma (who died in January at the age of 108 (she would have been 109 in September)) had a lot of the traits of the greatest generation. I was very fortunate to spend lots of time with her over the years. I often talked about her youth and her personal experiences. She also wrote a lot of her stories down for her granddaughter (who had a genealogy school project at the time). My Great Grandma grew up in a house with lots of people in it (ranging from 5-10 people). The house also had one bathroom. She remembered when there weren’t as many planes in the sky. When she started paying attention to more things, Coolidge was President. The family had two versions of the landline phone in their house. She remembered gathering around the piano and/or radio for entertainment. She was also very close to her grandmother (who was born in 1849).

Holding up the tail-end of GenX at 1979 I have to say that I don't think I'm better or worse than any other generation but I do genuinely love being born when I was born. I say this because I honestly feel like a time traveler and am endlessly fascinated with the "future" I now live in. This has to do with the transition I and those in my age range got to witness. If you really think about it, we were the very last to have a childhood/teenage years that had more in common with our grandparents than those born as little as 5 years after us and we were the very first / youngest to enter our adulthood just as the internet boom was really taking off. I really can't explain just how quickly this shift happened. It was so sudden that in college, my first 2 years of industrial design education was mid-century based hands-on marker rendering model building techniques and my last 2 years were all computer based. Certainly, pop culture, styles, tastes, social norms and technologies did advance between the 1920s and 1990s, but in that 70-year span we still functioned through life using the same techniques with only incremental advancements, most notably satellites and microchips. In the early 20th century as with the early 90s, we shopped at stores, malls and via mail-order (later phone) catalogs. If we wanted to learn something we went to a library, bought text books or got information from encyclopedias. News was still centralized to network stations, newspapers and other periodicals. Automobiles worked relatively the same way. Film photography worked relatively the same. We used film projectors in my elementary school classroom. If you wanted to book a flight or a travel of any kind, you went to a counter, used a travel agency or a land-line phone. If you needed to find your way somewhere, you used a paper map. We used pay-phones to get in contact with each other and set up meeting points/times at public places like amusement parks. If your friend didn't answer their land line, that was the end of it. There was no easy way to settle arguments about who sang what song what the actual lyrics were and what year it came out. Our older GenX siblings were definitely cooler than us and more "with it" socially/artistically but we digested all that and took to computers and tech with less mental hurdles (mostly because we probably did a little less drugs for better or worse). I don't think times were better during my childhood, just sharply different from the world we know today. We still do the same paradoxical stupid things but the way we do it is different. So I'm thankful to have known both worlds because it means I take what I'm doing now a little less for granted. End Rant.

Born ‘72 and feel much the same. At some point in the late 80s, I realized I’d spend most of my life in the 21st century. Part of me will always feel awe at that. And yeah, you’re closer to my younger sister’s age. As older Xers we got more “value neutral” messages about sex and drugs. (“Here’s the facts. Now you decide.” Well, sometimes we decided poorly.) Younger Xers got more DARE and abstinence-only messaging, as that approach was taking off.

@@catsmom129 Oddly I think DARE did work albeit some of it via fear tactics and half-truths but not all of it was off. Ah the Reagan years. The "do as I say now, not as I did then" years. What a generational "about face" that was eh? It's interesting now to know what "the future" actually is vs. what the entertainment industry told us it might be. Maybe not as bad as the dystopian ideas but certainly not as good as the optimists predicted. In a lot of ways we're full circle but with a lot more ability to spin each other out via all matters of over-stimulation.

Same for my great grandma. Her dad came from Mexico with his wife and her mother. He went through the roaring 20's and became a millionaire. He would walk around with a fat roll of 100's. My great grandma had to help raise the kids because her mom passed away in her 40's and because he had 26 kids throughout his life. Growing up my great grandma and her children (my aunts) made sure my siblings and I were nice and stuffed fat like piggies. Anytime we felt was snacktime. Food didn't go to waste. She made sure we said the Our Father prayer before bedtime. She was a strong believer in God.

I tried again in my 30s and it went much better. It actually helped. Both of my Zoomers have gotten therapy when they went through hard times. I can see how the '90s (and '00s?) really targeted guys for video games. Meanwhile, the '80s had a variety of games for all genders. I loved Pitfall and a bit of Pac-Man. I'm not a fan of the shooting games.

I was born in 94 and grew up with my grandparents who were born in the late 40s and early 50s. My grandfather was directly influenced by his uncle who served in the war and lived in their family farm. Some of the stories, the life sentiments, the work ethic that comes from baby boomers who did grow up on a farm hearing stories of war both valorous or sad, that is something I could never have “experienced” if it wasn’t linked to me. I’ve been blessed to have a close connection with my grandparents and I do hope to have the same for mine as I am starting a family a decade after my parents. Stories from 9/11 to Covid and anything I can remember I’d love to share with them.

We are very cynical, violent, yet cool...we created Hip Hop, Alternative Rock and what propelled MJ, Micheal Jackson, Madonna to GOAT status...the first generation that was completely feral. We typically have the REAL beef with the Boomers because they were absolutely selfish and demeaning, which coincidentally we (Gen X) identity with as we get older. It's like we understand why our parents were so cold to us and a lot of the Gen Xers realized we over corrected what our parents did to us: make us tougher.

as an American Gen Z kid, I think our generation will be defined by social media and hardships faced. The oldest of us are only like, 25-ish and we've already been born into a post-9/11 world riddled with multiple recessions, COVID, climate change, some of the worst inflation in a while, the bizarre political landscape of Hillary and Trump, then Biden and Trump, now Biden and Trump again... We currently have little hope to see ourselves purchase a home and raise a family in a conventional way: we've been sold on a promise to go to school and sink $10,000's of dollars into college with largely little payoff, corporations are skyrocketing housing costs, social security may run out, everything is subscription based or rented... Gen Z is living in a time where we were promised everything yet own nothing. I think its making us antsy and distrustful of those in power. Going into the future, I think our generation will be remembered for the hardships we've faced and what we have done to face them. Oh, and all things Internet culture.

It was truly fascinating to learn history from those who were actually there rather than a textbook or KZfaq video, which is why it’s so important for young people to listen to the experiences of older generations. Thank you, Mr Beat.

I grew up during the 80's as one of the X generation, the smallest one after WWII. We were last to know what the Cold War was like, to live with the anxiety that the next day one could be vaporized under a mushroom cloud. We were born as analog kids and grew up to be digital people. We are self reliant independent, and resourceful. We were cynical of others, politicians in particular in the age of Watergate, ABSCAM, the Savings And Loan scandal, televangelists, and Iran-Contra. We were the first generation not be better off than their parents. We were the first generation to grow up around both parents working and we were known as latch key kids. We were the bridge from the old ways of doing things to the new.

But during that time period that X generation grew up, the digital revolution transformed every aspect of life into digital.

My parents are both Silent Generation, so I disagree with you about that generation growing up with TV. My mom (born 1939) grew up in the middle class and only one of her friends came from a family with a TV. They existed, but they weren't mainstream. My dad (born 1929) saw at TV only once as a kid; it was the amazing new technology being displayed at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Saying the Silent Generation grew up with TV is like saying Gen X grew up with the Internet. Sure, early forms of the Internet existed in the 1970s and 1980s, but it wasn't mainstream.

Baby boomers are early and late. Early baby boomers, faced Vietnam, but graduated into free or nearly free state universities. The economy was booming, interest rates were low. Those born after 1955, graduated into a shrinking economy, high unemployment, and high interest rates, and something called stagflation. State universities began raising tuition and fees. The digital calculator replaced the slide rule. The “personal” computer debuted, and all of them who got a bachelors of science degree had to take a class in computer programming.

Well, we recognize that everyone faces problems. We see you keep comparing yourself to Boomers and moaning about how bad you have it, instead of comparing yourself to every other country in the world today, and the entirety of the rest of human history. You have it worse than the boomers, but you don't have it bad. If you stopped blaming other people (Boomers) long enough, and realized you have a more privileged life than the almost every human who's ever lived, you might actually find happiness. But I don't expect you to actually listen to this, the empiricism of rest of the world and human history notwithstanding, you'll dismiss me as "disconnected" and go on blaming everyone else. Good luck with that.

You legitimately must have some lead poisoning but I get it, growing up they told you lead was great that’s why I don’t think reading comprehension is your strong suit. Also yes if we are comparing ourselves to poorer countries of course we have it worse. While you older generations got to play the Economy on easy mode.

I’m 20, (smack dab center of Gen Z) and I am slightly older than KZfaq itself. I remember the first smartphones, and when many older folks were still fully unfamiliar with the internet. I think many on the elder side of my generation still remember the world before it moved online. I have one sibling who is 5, and his entire world exists in iPads, KZfaq, and things I struggle not to describe as “brainrot.” Now that the internet is no longer in its fetal stage, the cost of entertainment has plummeted. TV shows with real production value seem to have taken a backseat to mass produced content. Kids today are more at the whim of capitalist interests than ever before, because attention is cheap. I realize that this is a never ending cycle. New technology breeds comfort, taking things for granted, and dismissal of older ideas. That said, I wish more young people would use the internet to explore the depth of content from all eras which we finally have access to. Media from this entire list of ages is accessible to us now, and each generation has movies, music, and more to offer.

My household didn’t get CDs until 1997, and didn’t get the internet until 2000. I grew up with a rotary phone in one room, a black & white TV in my parents’ bedroom, and we even had a vacuum cleaner with a cloth-covered cable (not to mention several two-prong appliances). As I got older, I found that I had more in common with the generation that came before me than the generation I was supposedly a part of, though now I will say I have one foot in each since I work with several Zoomers.

Anyway, I respect Gen Z more than any other living generation right now. Obviously it varies from person to person, but just what I’m exposed to it’s very heartening to see the way that group handles themselves. They have the advantage of being prepared for the rough times that caught millennials off guard.

You forgot about the transitional generation called *_Generation Jones,_* basically the last few years of the Baby Boom and the first few years of Generation X-roughly 1955 to 1966. We were just children in the 1960s and weren't too affected by the political ferment or the free love or the prosperity our older brothers and sisters experienced. Instead, we had our teens in the 1970s, when western economies slumped into recession, the world became a lot more cynical place, hair and fashion were pretty comical, and pop music became more complicated and experimental, even disco. And then our generation was slammed by AIDS just as we were coming of age in the 1980s, music started to suck, and all the jobs were taken by people 10 years older than us and 10 years younger than us. We're Generation Jones because we were jonesing for things other generations had. Watch _Dazed and Confused_ some time, and you'll get it.

You're shitting me. I was born 2001, and DEFINITELY remember a world before the Internet was too widespread (and definitely a world before smartphones), but I was raised with all those things so I am a Zoomer.

we know 2013 is definitely Gen Alpha and 2009 and definitely Gen Z. But 2010-2012 is not definite in either so they’re called “Zalphas” I like to think those terms are for people who were born in between the definitive years So in my opinion, “Zillennial” is actually for people who were born from 1995-1997 because we know that 1998 is definitely Gen z and 1994 is millennials but 1995-1997 is not definite when it comes to sources

This is likely where individual situations will differ. Your family may have just decided not to immediately embrace new technology, whereas the vast majority of people born in the early 00's don't know a world without smart phones. I was born in '91 and had the same experience with the internet. When I was, say 16, most of my friends had the internet and some even had simple cell phones. But my family didn't have much money, so we didn't have any of it. I was probably 20 yo before my parents even got internet in their house.

@@bradwillis6591 Personally, I believe that one may feel like they belong in a specific generation based on what they remember or experience growing up that can differ than some people who was born the same time. I can remember flip phones, cameras, rotary phones (my household had one for a while until I was older), VCRs, blockbuster, etc. I was on the internet at a young age when Windows XP was the most frequently used (mid to late 2000s) and I have seen the internet change over the years.

"Now, say you were born in the year 1996." I sure was! How good of you to know that! "Oh you were? That's cool. What a coincidence." Eh, I can think of worse things technically... Also 'coincidence?' I just assumed that everyone was born in 1996 like me. You mean to tell me that other people weren't ALL born in 1996 as well? What kind of madness is this?
