Yes, but ...

Setting aside the polarized nature of named generations, as a class; for these are entirely arbitrary and designed to create polarization ...

There's fun theory on the "Gen X are forgotten" meme. Yes yes, you Gen Xers got shafted, here's a cookie 🍪 Please hear me out.

Most people fall on the cusps of their "generation" and Gen X is no different - in this case, you're either old enough to identify with boomers, and are shouting "snowflake millennial" with them; or you're young enough to identify with millennials, but still too old to identify with Gen Z, so you're shouting "cringe zoomer" with the millennials, they who are cuspers themselves and too old to identify with Gen Z. The quintessential Gen Xer is uncommon, but exceptionally kind. You always know when one is around though, because they are quick with a self deprecation point out that Gen X was "forgotten again." 😉

The sad thing is that many of the so-called boomers are being replaced by Gen Xers. And the millennials shouting the same inter-generational slurs will eventually take the throne of generational bully.

On the other hand, there is hope inspired by this meme - all we need to do to stop inter-generational trauma is stop perpetrating it.
