It really depends though. In a lot of places, life for gay young people for example is a lot less shitty than it was for gay people 40 years ago

The funny thing is, that many boomers dislike exactly that fact about generations younger than them. They think because esp. Millenials and Genz learned to name and voice their feelings, they are weak.

It is incredible mental gymnastics, however a lot of boomers tend to blame this "weakness" for economical struggle of younger generations.
