I can't speak for others my age, but I feel like there's less resentment towards the younger generation between millennials and zoomers than there is between boomers/gen-x and millennials. Completely anecdotal obviously, but my theory is that the struggles and fears millennials are facing and have faced are fairly identical to what Gen Z are facing, whereas boomers and gen-x have been able to acquire more wealth, etc., because of the eras they were born into. There's much more class solidarity amongst millennials and zoomers than other generations..
I actually really admire Gen Z and think they're doing a much better job than us millennials have done of focusing on material issues and not getting distracted by a lot of the culture war nonsense.
