Opinion | Megan Gerhardt: The 'OK, boomer' meme hurts Gen Z more than the older generation it's aimed at. - NBCNewsTHINK
But when we use generations as a lens rather than a label, it can help us generate deeper understanding of one another instead of fear. Take the lens a boomer may use to view his or her career. In general, baby boomers were raised with a “children should be seen and not heard” mentality by parents who survived the Great Depression. Galvanized by their parents’ economic insecurity, they seized on their careers and popularized the 70-80 hour work week.
In contrast, social media and fake news have shaped Gen Z’s views of information and communication, and traditional notions of career are crumbling away. Whereas age once equalled expertise, the rapid pace of change means Gen Z can be more knowledgeable about technology than people twice as old.
