The more I scrolled through its videos, the more it became clear that TikToks much-reported generational differences from the millennial internet were not just a well-observed detail but rather the whole point. TikTok has become a core way for Gen Z to express its own ethos, aesthetic, and attitudessometimes resulting in outright hostility toward millennials and boomers (though rarely Gen Xers, forever the forgotten middle child). Millennials, especially, are frequently criticized on the app for their perceived immaturity and whining, their predilection for Harry Potter and BuzzFeed, and their overall corniness. In a post under #bullymillennials, a video montage mocks what it calls a millennial core aesthetic. A series of images flashes across the screen: a pile of avocado toast, a mockelection campaign shirt that reads Doggo Pupper 20: Theyre heckin good boys, the definition of the buzzword adulting, and the Harry Potter house crests. In another post, a Gen Z user rips into millennials with the claim that they have underperformed as a generation. Yall were supposed to be saving the climate, starting revolutions and shit. What did you contribute? Mumford and Sons?

Gen Zers will also probably fail to save the world. Every generation thinks it will save the world. So far everyone has failed.
I'll be interested in checking back on Gen Z in like 20 to 30 years Anyway, Mumford and sons? Isn't that more a Gen X thing? Not sure why they are attributing it to millenials ... Copied to Clipboard!
