If I had to pick a 15 year span for my personal cohort, I'd probably pick 1989-2003 as an ideal generation, including everyone from PewDiePie to Greta Thunberg. I think it would suit me to be a part of this group as I watch a lot of YouTube, and a lot of the channels I watch are by people who are younger than me (I'm 91 born and some of the people I watch are born from '93 to '97) and this cohort would conveniently leave out some of the nasty old has-beens in the early years of Millennials, like Jeffree Star and Trisha Paytas.
Political and historical generations are not the same as social and cultural ones. S&H worked in the former domain exclusively, while most others citing this or that generation operate in the latter. From a social perspective you may be correct, but that's not what we're discussing here.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
