It’s the millennials, or at least the ones that get into the position of writing op-eds for the NY Crimes, having an existential crisis over the fact that the defining media franchise of their youth doesn’t have what it takes to become one of the timeless classics. It gives them the feeling that their cultural moment will fade.

    The bourgeoisie of any generation always seem to do this, try to hold onto cultural relevance for as long as possible. Weirdly enough it should still be “millennial’s day” in a normal world now with them leading the charge.

    Like part of maturity should be accepting not everything in your day was a winner.

    Yeah the oldest millennials are in their mid forties, forget middle management there’s some of them in upper management now. Yet there’s still this attitude in most organizations of “Millennials are the kids in the room, they don’t get to run stuff yet.” So the Millennials are stuck in this spot where Gen X and Boomers treat them like kids and Zoomers see them as old and out of touch.
