As a zoomer myself, I’m afraid that this graph is inaccurate

[–] Legom7@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Greatest Generation, the one that killed Nazis, was cringe?

[–] despicable@lemmy.today 26 points 1 day ago

I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume this graph was created by a GenZ'er as they are the only people in the world who don't consider GenZ'ers cringe.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Gen Z is the most cringe since the boomers. Your shit is breaking down into farts.

Generational warfare is pretty cringe. The chart isn’t even right, too. X was the highest percentage voting for trump generationally. I’m ashamed of my brethren.

[–] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 74 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Guys I think we should take this shit post seriously and get into fights with strangers on the internet about generations in the comments.

Being an ass on the internet is the most based thing a person can do. You're cringe if you disagree. smh my head.

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

Pff, your generation...

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Excuse me sir, is this the right room for an argument?

You lie! It was never fashionable to hang an onion from your belt!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 28 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Gen X is actually cringe and millennials are based.

No, this has nothing to do with me being a millennial. It's cringe to even suggest that.

[–] CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

I agree, being a millennial, and having to see the cringe gen x elon musk news daily.

my parents are gen x and they are not based at all

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 86 points 2 days ago (2 children)

fuck the generational entelechy. No war but class war.

[–] Silk@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah, took me a while to realise generational stereotypes etc. were more inflammatory culture war, as much as it often seems 'in good spirits'.

Entelechy is a new word too ty

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago

Now THIS is truely based

[–] sethonlemmy@lemy.lol 2 points 1 day ago

Gen beta is based by this graph

[–] Zero22xx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 139 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Cringe is teenagers and 20 somethings hero worshipping Joe Rogan and supporting right wing christian nationalists. Lamest fucking generation around. Even boomers had a hippie phase before becoming old and bitter. Gen Z just skipped that and went straight to the conformist bootlicker phase.

[–] afronaut@lemmy.cafe 28 points 2 days ago

Yea, millennials are the most progressive/leftist generation of them all.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

"But iswearimnotaracistjustracerealist1488 told me I will eventually become a conservative, so I decided to skip liberalism altogether!"

This meme brought to you by a gen zer.

Everyone is cringe. This is just life.

[–] StitchIsABitch@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yup as soon as I saw gen Z based I knew. 5-10 years ago this would have been the opposite, it's always the generation of new adults that thinks they're hip and cool while looking down on the "kids". When I was younger we (millennials) all thought we were the coolest and made fun of gen Z for being cringe. Now gen Z thinks they're cool but soon enough they'll be old and lame too and gen Alpha will have the spotlight.

Just wait till a kid hits you with "sir" for the first time and then looks at you weird when you insist you're not that old.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 1 points 23 hours ago

Do people still say "sir"? I have only heard it in movies and stuff.

[–] shaserlark@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Super cringe to say cringe unironically in 2025. Clearly, OP must be either silent generation or gen X because they called them based. Gen Z know not to say cringe anymore. I would like to say shut the fuck but that is a waste of energy as OP is probably one of the silent generation, which I conclude based on the fact that OP refuses to elaborate on this post, which is a clear indicator that OP is silent.

Idk kinda cringe

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 68 points 2 days ago

Cringe all the way down

[–] Ribbons@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Milennials? Cringe? But what about all those industries we destroyed!?

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We never defeated the worst industry of all

The ass eating industry 😔

GenX is not only cringe, they are the cringiest in history.

Fun Fact: This is the actual reason Kurt Kobain killed himself.

[–] lemmytry@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

"In her recollection, her interest in Trump was prompted by his positions on trade. However, looking back six years later she confessed, “I’m going to forget all the facts.” She tried to recall: “I did my research back then into what was happening with Paris Trade Accord [a reference to the climate agreement that the Obama administration had entered into] and things … I didn’t like it, and Trump was against it. I said, ‘Ok, great.’”

This is roughly consistent with Bonier’s analysis of Gen X voters, which has found that they are very concerned about the economy, somewhat concerned about retirement (although nowhere near as much as Baby Boomers) and not terribly concerned about issues like the environment or guns."

☝️ these are not serious people. 👇

" In her first term, she’s sponsored legislation to ban vaccine mandates, to prohibit libraries from making obscene materials available to minors and to nullify federal enforcement of gun control laws in the state."

Things zzzzzzzz's say

[–] the_swagmaster@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As someone on the boundary between millennials and gen Z. Sometimes I am cringe as fuck and sometimes I am based. The worst part is, it's hard to predict when either will happen.
