It's not a matter of what anyone "thinks." Generational changes
occur based on biological timelines that have been the same
for millennia.
You've managed to squeeze into three sentences an entire mélange of
unsupported, inconsistent and incoherent guesses that don't even make
any sense. But I suppose they must make you feel good.
Anyway, the "Pivotal Generation" concept was new to me, but it turns
out that a lot of research is being done on them over the last two
years, since they're spending a lot of money, but have very different
values and behaviors from other generations. Some of values are more
similar to the Boomers, as the Pivotals pivot away from the
Millennials and Gen-Xers.

By the way, the Pivotals are switching from Facebook to Snapchat and
Instagram.

That's right and only elite boomers believe in Human Rights, free trade, globalism, the doctrine of "America will never attack first" and other such institutions like the UN. None of the younger generations believe in that as well as many non-elite boomers. Therefore the populist interpretations and propositions during the current crisis are destined be the ones that are ultimately implemented.
