I use TikTok (I know...). There, when there's rivalry, it is frequently 'gen Z' the one bullying 'millennials'. They criticize the way they use technology, their fashion sense, their attitudes, their musical tastes, etc. Studies are noticing that 'gen Z' tend more to the right-wing, so I guess there's a part of them also criticizing previous generations for being too leftists or whatever.

I use the quotation marks because this whole generational thing seems to me arbitrary and U.S.-centric. I'm in the years that are considered the transition between these two generations and I share characteristics with both. It's silly how serious we've taken this thing.

Gen Z right-wing? Wikipedia could be wrong, but:

Generation Z is generally alike to Millennials on political and social issues.[5] Generation Z has been reported to be "progressive and pro-government",[6] though this narrative has occasionally been challenged, particularly in Europe. The generation is largely in favor of LGBT rights, gender equality, and access to abortion. Economically, Generation Z has a more favorable outlook on socialism than previous generations. Gen Z varies largely by country on whether to make it easier for legal migrants to live and work in their home countries. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_views_of_Generation_Z#:~:text=Generation%20Z%20has%20been%20reported,equality%2C%20and%20access%20to%20abortion.
