Gen x were such slackers they just slouched their way into the more impactful generations surrounding them. Now they've given up their generational identity and either identify with Millennials or Boomers (whether they actually acknowledge it or not).

Strong the bullshit is in this one.

Any talk of generational divides is usually bullshit

Only because generational divides are bullshit used to keep the working class from uniting against the oligarchs.

But anyway back to it: Look at how Xers talk online, they either act like Boomers or Millennials. There's no defining Gen X quality other than slackerdom and that's hardly unique to them, so they just got absorbed by stronger generations.

It's not Gen X quality; it's Gen X quantity.

There are a ton of Boomers and a ton of Millennials. Not as many X. Of course the X group is less politically powerful.
