Each Generation's Name (since Revolutionary Saeculum) Ranked
#26
Xers are now called Karens:
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/lau...generation

But this comment is moronic:
Baby boomers are invalidating people and starting trouble, but Gen X is part of the problem as well. They follow their parents, whereas millennials and Gen Z has seen how detrimental the mindset of generations before them has been and tries to incite change.

These changes millies want to incite are just 60s radical student agenda. Boomers and Xers have supported it too when they were younger, but now they grew out of it.

In terms of moral foundations, pre-WW1 culture was based on an ethics of sanctity. Many Lost have abandoned it in the 1920s, unleashing the kind of nihilism the article correctly attributes to Xers. Then 60s radical students started promoted ethics of care, usually called PC though I call it Inclusivism. Millennials are the first generation socialized with the ethics of care, and Xers bash it with the same nihilism they applied to remnants of ethics of sanctity which were still present during the 3T. The entire period from the 1920s to the early 2000s should be viewed as a transition from culture of sanctity to culture of care. Karens don't apply enough care. I'm a male Karen as well.
