I decided to make this more of a positive thread.. instead of framing this question as rank them or which is the worst.

Which generation do you think is the best of us right now in the world? List of all living generations and brief summary of each below:


Gen Alpha (2013–2025):

Growing up fully immersed in smart technology, AI, and digital learning.

Gen Z (1997–2012):

Socially conscious digital natives who value inclusivity and mental health.

Millennials (1981–1996):

Tech-savvy idealists seeking purpose, flexibility, and balance in life.

Gen X (1965–1980):

Independent and adaptable, bridging the gap between analog and digital eras.

Baby Boomers (1946–1964):

Tradition-oriented and hardworking, now shaping retirement and healthcare trends.

Silent Generation (1928–1945):

Resilient and disciplined, shaped by hardship and historical world events.


I'm going to pick the Silent Generation. They grew up in a really hard time with the Great Depression and their fathers going off to WW2. This made a lot of people of that era have a scarcity mindset and close family values.

They were also the people that were instrumental in the Civil Rights movement here in America.

The Silent Generation, because they knew when to shut the fuck up and when direct action was necessary.
 
The older you go, the more racist they are, so Generation Alpha
 
X or millennial. Boomers are the worst. And silent are too far away now to really mean much; still living is being very generous at this point.
 
The silent generation.

The boomers (and large number of them anyway) fucked up a large number of the next generation by telling them bullshit like how "special" they were. The next generations have doubled down on some of the bullshit some of us started.

This is from a boomer.
