As a younger one, we grew up with social media becoming available to us right at the worst age. Like seriously imagine if you and your parents were allowed on Facebook right as you hit puberty and nobody understood what it could do to you.
That and also growing up not remembering 9/11 but remembering adults mocking al gore for caring if we all die of ecocide.
We’re basically the prototype for gen z. You merely adopted hopelessness. We were born into it, molded by it, we didn’t see a chance until we were adults.
I hate to break it to you, but memory of 9/11 is kind of a litmus test for the Millennial/Gen Z border. If you don’t remember it you’re likely Gen Z or right on the border where generational definitions get really fuzzy.
Well that still puts you pretty safely in the range, actually. The typical cutoff year is 1996. I’m 30. You were 7 (or almost 7) but you don’t remember 9/11?

Not really, maybe I had more important shit happening at the time.
