What is even this article?

Says GenX/ 'elder' millennials... but states the dates of this 'cohort' 1970-1985.

GenX is that era, Gen Z is next, The Millennials (as in, around the time of the millennium).

And then goes on to say the trend is alarming for 'ages 30-45'... almost like this article is from 10-15 years ago because for GenX that ship has sailed...

AI slop or shitty editor? Click bait?

I don't have any comment on the quality of the article otherwise, but millennials (at least in the US) is the commonly used descriptor for gen y because we came of age during the millennium.

Millenials start as early as 1980 depending on who's making it up

Anyone who says millennial starts at 1980 is full of garbage even under the knowledge that generational labels are largely made up nonsense.
