Generations are said to have about the same Zeitgeist and experiences growing up, but honestly, the Zeitgeist culture from 1998 to 2008 is way different than from 2008 onwards. Early and late gen z also behaves completely different overall. Its not a matter of age and maturety.

Anyone else feel like that? Especially other old Gen Z?

Edit: forgot you can rarely have a casual talk without someone bringing up politics and nihilism points on here
