  • It’s not an exact definition, but below I think is close:

    Baby Boomers: Born 1946-1964 (18 years)

    Generation X: Born 1965-1980 (15 years)

    Millennials (Gen Y): Born 1981-1996 (15 years)

    Generation Z: Born 1997-2012 (15 years)

    Generation Alpha: Born 2013-present

    What you’re saying doesn’t line up with this at all, but maybe you have other generation dates in mind.


  • It’s understandable to be confused by it, I’m not sure why it makes you angry.

    Even if you’re familiar with the idea that some portion of the population is hierarchy/authoritarian prone, it makes you ask why. Then the answer just takes you one step deeper - that they like to see others suffer. Why? Because it makes them feel like they have it better than someone else, and that feels good. Well why does that make them feel good? Etc.

    When you drill down enough you always get to “that’s just the way it is”, which isn’t satisfying.
