Who do you think is worse: older generations or younger?

Question

Do you think Boomers are worse than millenials or Gen Z? Or the other way around? And in what ways?

Miristheiss · Accepted Answer

Younger.

Why? They have less faith in God and a biblical moral truth.

They are more hedonistic and degenerate. 1.4 women from 20 to 30 are doing OnlyFans. I mean, 60 years ago, a woman's life would have to fall apart for her to be a stripper and that would be in the seedy part of town. Now every girl thinks being a whore is totally fine. No moral code. No character.

Most western countries are facing a demographic nightmare because less and less women are choosing to have families and children. The population, culture and economy seem to be in for a collapse due to everyone dying off and not having kids to replace everyone. They've been deceived into believing jobs, travel, going to bars all the time is the priority of existence and that having a family isn't the key to contentment and fulfillment. They've totally abandoned the reason they exist. If they aren't going to have kids then it would be better if we were all men since men are actually the workers and builders, who build everything and maintain everything. Men still do all the work but the women abandon their biological role. What is their purpose if they aren't doing what they were designed for? They think the world needs all of these air conditioned office jobs they do. Like that builds anything, gets any fuel energy, produces food, repairs anythying. Society doesn't need that shit. Men can do that anyway.

The newer generation just gets more and more twisted. 20 years ago you didn't have people saying a man with a dick is really a woman and should be kicking the ass of girls on the sports teams and being in women's prisons. Open relationships are becoming more and more of a thing. 60 years ago the citizens weren't saying, I know let's get rid of the border and let 20 MILLION poor, non English speaking foreigners just invade the country and let's take tax payer money and pay for their healthcare and put them up in hotels and close schools to house immigrants and let's them vote. Let's accept them forming parallel societies in our country where they only speak their own language and follow the culture of their old country.

Yeah, the younger generations will basically destroy the entire country and culture and society with all of their deraigned, evil lunacy.

Morals have been worse in each generation after the boomers. Gen X had worse morals, millennials have MUCH worse morals, Gen z is split between close to half having terrible morals, and close to a 4th having much better morals, with some in-between. I'd say out of those 4 generations, millennials are likely the worst morally, and often the worst employees too. The worst thing about boomers is that they gave bad life advice to younger generations for many years about college, work, and relationships. (They are the ones that convinced people that getting a college degree was a guarantee to a better life, not telling people about the crushing debt. They also would tell women to focus on a career until their 30s when it was actually too late to get a good partner for an exclusive LTR.)

Gen X was often not cared about by society. They know they are on their own for most things and often don't rely on others because life has taught them not to trust people and that most people will screw you over if it is to their benefit.

They're all bad. Each has their particular glitch. The Silent Gen is mostly silent NOW be they're gone... BB Gen lost their minds to free love then tried to bounce back by introducing equally unapologetic capitalist mayhem. Gen X (this gal included) are always fighting shadows, riddled with multiple levels of guilt -- about who our parents are, about the environment, about the mere urge to have sex, killing the ballad with the introduction to techno... Screen and shopping additions are normalized. Mil Gen are the beginning of the entitled group with "plastic" life experiences and expectations that "everything will be ok" and "everyone gets stickers". The beginning of the generation to wear excessively skimpy and hold themselves accountable for nothing... they think whatever they do is "cute" (which carries on to future generations).  Gen Z (Product of Gen X and Mil Gen)... fewer skills, less time outside, gaming and screen addictions boom. Extreme tendencies for hyper responsibility and hyper laziness. Gen A: Increased entitlement and a sort of moral cluelessness.

Millennials, Why because they're so materialistic they want all the brand new fancy cars huge mansions and blaming their financial situation on the boomers. When the boomers never told them to max out their credit cards or to get a loan on a fancy expensive car they can't manage to pay at the beginning of the month. Millennials are all about overconsumption. I get along better with boomers and Gen X. I have seen woman my own age married with children still wanting to act and dress like a high schooler and living with parents. Yes I feel ashamed of my own millennial generation. When I interact with people my own age it's always a weird ackward silenced. I have a good conversation with a 70 year old woman about gardening they will always give you good advice about life.

Chazmatazz269 · Answer

The younger generations are worse, by far. At least the boomers can claim ignorance. They didn’t know squat and still the country flourished.
All the information in the world at these young people’s fingertips and all they do is f*ck things up and b*tch when we don’t fix it for them. They’ve been handed way too much for too little investment on their part for their entire lives and the result is a nearly useless and overly entitled generation of deadbeats. No wonder they favor corrupted socialism. They can’t survive in a society that demands they pull their own weight.
That said, it was the older generations that coddled them too much for too long, thereby creating this mess.

EzraIsShy76028 · Answer

Like with everything else, it also depends. No concrete right or wrong answer.

BUT for all those people blaming the younger generations (even if for rightful reasons), ever think that maybe the older generations did a shit job at raising the younger generations? Stupidity tends to come from somewhere. People normally aren't born stupid. And a lot of people are terrible parents.

The younger generations may be "dumber" in a more traditional sense due to having way less life experience. But older generations aren't as perfect as they like to believe either.

So all in all I'd say they're equally bad. Though leaning the older generations worse because they should know better. Kids, teens, and young adults have more of an excuse for being dumb. Middle aged and older people don't.

hestelly · Answer

The younger generation, unfortunately, to put it bluntly, no home training whatsoever. Not a clue what accountability or character mean. And one of the most irritating traits they seem to have picked up is they can't spell to save their life. I'm talking about grown men and women. I remember learning proper grammar in the English language in about 4th grade and up. My learning skills stuck with me. I guess the younger generation figured they wouldn't need to retain their knowledge because their life is way too important. How's that working out for you now? Lol

NordicInScandinavia · Answer

Tbh neither.

The worst are those that point finger at the other - in all generations. If I have to pick: the older because, they should be wiser than the younger, and we're responsible for the next generations after us. If the younger generations are failing - then it is the fault of those before them.

mobiusforniner · Answer

My parents are boomers. They beat the snot out of me for things I never did, and only because it “felt good” to blame someone else. They openly tell me to kill my self and then they get violent with me when I am angry at them for it. They had an abortion because having another baby was too “inconvenient” yet they vote anti abortion and claim anyone who kills babies are “evil whores”. They meanwhile complain how millennials (ie myself) lack work ethic despite me having the same job for nearly 20yrs and moving to middle management while they swapped jobs and got fired several times. The tell everyone they’re god fearing humble people while claiming others who disagree with them need to die

I’m done with the boomers. They can go to hell

Joshydavid25 · Answer

I think all the generations definitely have their flaws.. The Baby Boomers and Millennials are particularly annoying for different reasons.. Baby boomers for acting like they didn't have one of the greatest economies and judging Millennials and early gen Z like it's the same.. And Millennials because they think they're so much more moral than the past..

exitseven · Answer

younger., they cannot even write their names or make change. The baby boomers were the real Greatest Generation

Anonymous · Answer

honestly I don't know

everything did start to go downhill because the Baby Boomers allowed it to

everything from feminism to the sexual revolution then to abortion then to marriage breakdowns then to fatherlessness then to kids growing up into SJWs who can't argue with logic but instead with violence as they protest for stupid shit like climate change by gluing themselves to roads and highways

those kids I'm referring to would be my generation the Zoomers whom are very split politically, men mostly being right-leaning and anti-feminist and women mostly being left-leaning and pro-feminist

Zoomer men at least had the red-pill to wake them up from the gynocentric society put upon us while Zoomer women continue to be baby deleting hoes

not all because there are still some good Christian girls and there are soyboy simps but those are a rarity amongst their respective genders

Effably · Answer

Right now the trophy goes to boomers. Mostly on account of the achievement of being the only generation in history to make their successors have less instead of more.

But its wrong to blame a generation for the choices of a few. Especially when it probably wasn't even them making those decisions. That's like pretending Gen Z is running the world now while most people that are, are baby boomers. And when they were younger it wasn't them running it.

Dongie · Answer

That's easy. I go by the Bible. Each generation will get worse. Gen Z has an awful lot of traits aligned with the last one coming.

Ironco · Answer

I'll get hate for this, but Gen X is still the best Gen of them all. We can relate to all the generations before and after us. Take the good from each generation, deny the bad. Make life what we want out of it, and if the other generations don't like it , fuck em. We just don't care.

wynning · Answer

Older generations will say younger ones and younger generations will say older ones.
Nobody likes accountability for the shit their generation does, do they...

Truce? As part of Gen Z, I am more familiar with our shortcomings but Gen Alpha are too young to know better and learn from us, for now. The last thing we should be doing is creating rifts in the name of generations - there is no point in doing it whatsoever other than creating divide.

Screenwriter · Answer

Oh, come on. No one is "worse than" the other. There are annoying aspects to every generation. Stupid trends, bad hair, goofy expectations, dumb experiments.

But the salient point is there is GOOD to every generation and we're moving forward the more we know about the world, each other and life!

Hard times create strong men
Strong men create good times
Good times create weak men
And weak men create hard times

The boomers created weak men
The weak men created hard times. The millennials. The hard times have not created strong men, this tiem. Only weaker "men" or lady boys. Its only going to get harder from here.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

Younger. More than half of them don't know how to spell or use proper English, they know verry little about history, they think life is entirely encased in that gizmo they practically have surgically attached to the palm of their hand.

captain_voidwalker · Answer

Boomers are the worst, they had nothing but golden oprutunities thier whole life and can't fathom that people today don't have the same oprutunities.

Millennials are almost as bad because they think everything should be given to them and they shouldn't have to work.

sage2021 · Answer

Definitely the younger generations by far!! They don't want to work 🤷🏼‍♀️

beefcakebradybatson · Answer

The Silent Generation won World War Two, but expended tons of energy keeping us handsome Bradys away from their buxom blonde daughters. To me, they're hypocrites who believed only whites deserved democracy.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

These young kids nowadays are quite daze and confused yet stubborn and disrespectful.

CB-Raido-Time · Answer

It's a mixture of all generations combined together ignoring the things that are detrimental to humanity as long as they feel something is going their way ignoring the atrocities that are currently unfolding right before their own eyes for example if it means more in their pockets they don't care if their neighbor or their children are being euthanized.

jshm2 · Answer

The Boomers, but they did deal with a war, so can't fault them too much.

Kaneki05 · Answer

The older the worst. They have oppressive moral views that are in fact not moral at all and take upon views that come from ignorance. If we lived by there standard we'd still be stoning people to death for being gay.

Anonymous · Answer

Younger is worse than older generations in every way. Because extramarital one-night stands, disrespect for elders, self-centeredness, selfishness, insincerity, and unnecessary consumerism are more common in Gen Z.

Quetaismymiddlename · Answer

It depends on sorted things like with acceptance of people with tattoos and piercings older generations are worse but when it comes to having respect the younger generation is worse

Starredup · Answer

Gen Z are some of the most narcissistic, delusional and entitled individuals I’ve ever come across.

I'm generation X, and I think every generation has both good and bad examples, as well as the neutral ones.

Deserter3 · Answer

Older, selfish and incompetent idiots. Living paycheck to paycheck. How are you struggling financially in America in the fucking 70s and 80s? I'd be running circles around these clowns if I grew up then, I'd be rich. If they grew up today they'd be living on the streets.

CuriousMufuxka · Answer

Younger. The older generations are either dying or in pain from being older.

altaboy · Answer

They're all just people trying to find their way in the world. Everyone has their problems. I think labelling people and dividing them is just another way to cause conflict.

Alex-Snow · Answer

Define "worse" All generations are different and that has probably been the case for many many years
