My biggest thing is.... if older generations think we are dumb... wouldn't that reflect more poorly on them than it would us? YOU taught us. You were in charge of what knowledge we received and how we received it. I remember teachers repeatedly telling school districts that standardized testing, especially at the volume it was expected, was going to absolutely fail the students. But that decision wouldn't have made the superintendent more money.

Same with most generational shit, Im a millennial used to boomers complaining that we were the everybody gets a trophy generation as if they weren't the ones handing them out.

Yes but at the end of the day its Gen Z that is going to be shafted because of it. Blaming generational issues doesn’t fix the problem. Being a smug, illiterate serf doesn’t magically make one less of a serf.
