One can go back to the ancient Greeks to find that pattern, but does it hold?

If one subscribes to the theory that culture moves in cycles (hedonistic Weimar Republic, WW2, conservative backlash in the 1950s, left backlash in the 1960s, conservative backlash in the 1980s/1990s, woke backlash in the late 2000s), then sometimes the complaints are valid.

Gen-Z has an unprecedented cancel power, anonymous reports, controlling speech of Gen-X. It has never been like this before.

Certainly Gen-X disliked their older generations, too, but they didn't have the tools or the self-righteousness to openly intrigue against them.

Gen-X is too soft to fight back, to the detriment of our society.
