It seemed to have sparked listening to a 2000s music playlist, especially Avril Lavigne's early albums.

I was born in 1995, so the 2000s was most of my childhood.

And I was wondering what songs people would consider a good representation of the generation?

Every dumbass conservative talk show host says that I'm supposed to be conservative. Do the people who perform political surveys on 15-year-olds actually think that they know anything else about social issues than what Alex Jones and their parents say about it? If I was to choose a generation we are like, I would say genX, which is our parent's generation. Just because we live lives like them does not mean we have the same views as them. And even if for some reason in hell we are conservative, remember, 18 years olds are pretty fckin stupid.

Baby boomer,s Gen X, and Millennials have failed Gen Z.... As a whole, we as older generations have failed Gen Z. We live in a time that is advancing faster than we know and can't keep up. Between Ok Boomer, Failed parenting and terrible older siblings this generation is left to fend for themselves. We have failed this younger generation socially, economically, environmentally, and technologically and it's time we say we are sorry.

Could Generation Z hold the key to the end of the world? It is the last letter of the alphabet, after all. As a millennial/gen Z pioneer (‘97), whenever I see the letter “Z” standing alone I instantly think, “Zombie”. Interestingly, Zombies have been such a rising hit within the millennial era within tech. Ever since I was a young human — maybe around 8 — I have had an acute interest, and an equally acute fear of zombies. Reoccurring dreams of a zombie apocalypse beginning has seemed to be a theme throughout my whole life. As you are probably aware of, the lands we live on are approaching maximum capacity. If this doesn’t stop I could see an agent (maybe the government, but I don’t want to point fingers too soon) developing a virus and releasing it among the commonwealth as a means of civilian-controlled population-control. This is just something that is in my head. Thanks for reading.

I’d like to point out that the years on here are wrong. Many researches agree that gen z is 1995-2012 give or take a year on each end.

I look forward to building a centrist bisexual world with you all.

exam week is so hard it changes people, for the first time ever i went downstairs to the kitchen to get food but when i saw the leftover salad from today my body was like:

 “YOU BISH U BETTER EAT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN LIVING OFF CHOCOLATE BARS, ONE GIGANTIC COURSE OF JUNKFOOD AND COFFEE AND CONVINCING YOURSELF WE WONT DIE CUZ YOU DRANK HALF A CUP OF OG THIS MORNING AND THE ONLY REASON YOU DONT HAVE A HEADACHE IS BECUZ OF THOSE DAMN PAIN RELIEVERS” 

might go back and make more salad it tastes like the missing nutrition i need.. 

Millennials had vaping, leftism, hipsterism, Smartphone addiction and getting offended easily. Will you support a certain politican, swing conservative like conservatives say about gen z or swing left? What do you support that most millennials don't now being in an era where there's Smartphones, different internet from the 2000s and a constantly changing society?

I know I am not the only one who cannot go through the day without my phone, which brings me to the idea in question is technology now life? Technology is constructed of codes and hardware wiring which means that this technology is in fact not alive it is powered by electronic energy referred to as watts/joules. Also technology without interaction is literally that, a device with no function which means in order for it to do anything it needs our participation. By definition this participating in our own technological dependence results in an action which leads to further dependence and ultimately manipulation this concept is referred to as partipulation which is exactly what it sounds like. Why then are we humans so dependent on these technology devices, many researchers say its due to the fact that we have filled in previously man made to do's with to do's done by our electronics for example shopping which has a huge influence on our daily life everyday. All in all just know in your higher consciousness that we do not need this technology in our life as much as we think instead it is a want that we have hooked ourselves on. Don't forget to actually Live because technology is not Life!

So,

I have some questions for members of Gen Z, regardless of what gender or sexual orientation you are. I’m a 29 turning 30 year old Millenial.

My questions are as follows. I’d appreciate serious answers, no trolling or bs.

1. What do you guys think of my generation generally?

2. How old are your parents on average? Mine are 65 for example.

3. What music do you guys listen to? Myself having been raised by older parents I listen to a lot of 70s-90s stuff. But what music defines Gen Z?

4. What solutions do you guys do think are needed to combat climate change. Say tomorrow and you wake up and you’re emperor or empress of the world -how do you fix climate change and our other social problems?

5. Do you view someone of my age (29/30) as “old”? When I was say, 15, 16 a 30 year old was like, someone wise and someone who stood above me on the social ladder. What age do you think someone gets genuinely “old” at?

6. What sorta fashions would you say are common to your generation? Like, what’s some stuff - clothes, hair styles, that kinda thing - you feel is unique to your generation?

7. How do you feel about beards? I ask because my generation seems to be obsessed with them. Manbuns?

8. What are some slang words you guys use that a Mlllenial wouldn’t know?

9. How do you feel about the downfall of things like retail stores, diners, and other similar industries?

10. Can you even imagine a world without WiFi, cell phones, streaming services? Can you imagine a time when a cell phone would lose signal in just under a mile away from home range, or having to wait until after 9pm to have unlimited minutes? Or having to not tangle the house phone’s phone cord? Does a world without streaming music seem strange to you? Can you imagine a world without selfies? Without GPS? Without Google Maps? Without Uber or Lyft? Can you imagine a world where 3D graphics in games were an exciting novelty? A world where there was only cable TV?

11. is rock music at all relevant to you? Also how do you view Eminem?

12. What’s worse - a mullet or a man bun? What’s your generations perception of goatee’s?

13. What do you imagine the future will be like?

There are many variables to this question. Global warming, drug usage, the dying of bees, etc. Just as a species and overall intelligence, will they keep the human species going on for years to come?

I’ve been asking myself this, for at least a month. There are plenty of common misconceptions of all generations. Boomers seem to despise millennials and vise versa, but by leaving feelings out of the equation, I’m wondering what other generations might say about the mild mannered Generation Zs like myself.

Please drop down your opinion/answer. Elaborate if you’d like. I’m very curious as to what others have to say.

r/GenZ is fucking gay

In my opinion, i don’t dislike it nor do i like it. It’s more of a placeholder name to me. I especially don’t like the names being coined by many people such as iGen, Gen Tech, or any of those weird names presented by the media at any point in time. One I have found interest in though, is The Founders. This name was brought to light by MTV in a 2015 conducted survey. MTV President Sean Atkins commented on the name saying, “they have this self-awareness that systems have been broken, but they can't be the generation that says we'll break it even more.” What do you think of this name and the other names that have come out over time?

I’m gonna be 18 next year (2021)!!!!!!! THATS CRAZY

The promise of the internet, as it was evangelized in the 1990s, was not only to help people create like-minded communities that were difficult to form in person, but also to expose people to new ideas and diverse ways of thinking. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is still making that argument.

It hasn’t quite worked out that way, especially for the generation now in college, according to a recent survey by the American Enterprise Institute.

Sarah Lawrence College professor Samuel Abrams, vilified by students for his research documenting the overwhelming leftism of college bureaucrats, elaborates on the survey and Generation Z in a blog post for AEI, where he’s a visiting scholar:

Only 8 percent of Gen Zers state that the digital world has helped them interact a lot with people who hold different views. And despite being heavy social media users, 35 percent of Gen Zers replied that social media has helped them “only a little” or “not at all” when interacting with different people and groups.

The numbers are slightly higher for millennials and Generation X: 11 percent were helped “a lot” while just under half of each said social media helped “only a little” or “not at all.”

Perhaps surprisingly, social media is helping relatively few Gen Zers connect with people they already agree with. Less than 20 percent said it helped them “a lot.” Around two in five for the three youngest generations said social media helped “only a little” or “not at all” with connecting with like-minded people.
