Interested in exploring the subject further, Reddit user 5h0gKur4C4ndl made a post on the platform, asking its older users to list the things that they cannot understand about younger people.
From experiencing life through your phone to labeling everyone around you, we collected some of the most popular replies to shed more light on what drives the disconnect between us. Hopefully, that’ll bring us one step closer to bridging it.

The Redditor isn’t entirely sure if the conversations will remain civil as time goes on, but so far, the main points seem to be general attitude, convenience issues, and “whatever your grandparents would complain about.”

There are the boomers, people born in the post-war baby boom period. The case against them is that they enjoyed free higher education and affordable housing, and then created a huge economic and environmental mess for everyone else to clean up.
Then there are the millennials – folks born between the early ’80s and mid-’90s. The charges against them are that they’ve killed off everything from mayonnaise to fabric conditioner, and spend their money away on avocado on toast and oatmeal lattes instead of saving up for what’s important in life.
Generation X is sitting largely forgotten in the middle, and Generation Z, the youngsters raised on social media, are just entering the real world.

“If there will ever be something that will allow generations to finally close them, it will likely be because there is something so meaningful, it changes the whole world.”
To begin, however, we could at least try and see each other’s best attributes and pick up on our similarities instead of antagonizing everyone we don’t agree with.
