As a member of gen Z, you likely don't notice it because you're not part of the generation being made fun of. It's a pretty constant issue and it didn't magically stop with millennials. It's to the point where many older members of gen Z insist they're actually millennials in an attempt to gain bownie points with the older generations by not being part of the generation they hate (which never works BTW.)

I do see it, but consistently call it out if I can. I like to use the example of POGS if anything regarding viral trends or whatever comes up. POGS were just printed pieces of cardboard that encouraged gambling, and we morons ate that shit up.
