A generation that gets ragged on a lot. Not as bad as people think, but there are some crazy ones. Extremely split between conducting a plan for a mass genocide and being gay. Either you're gay or racist by choice, there are no other options.
Gen Z is a pretty polarized generation, with one half being extremely racist, homophobic, and misogynistic, and the other being LGBTQ snowflakes

the generation that gets the most hate for no reason. boomers and millennials are always thinking that they're freaking heroes for living without technology, even tho they are the reason why our planet is dying. its also the generation that comes after millennials and before gen alpha.
person1: why does gen z get so much hate?
person2: I dunno. they've done nothing wrong
person1: yeah but aren't they lazy?
person2: don't boomers sit around all day and aren't gen alpha iPad kids?
person1: you're not wrong there
