Get the forgotten_l0ser mug.People born between 1995-2002
Aren't Millennials but also can't identify with Gen Z Culture
Many similarities with the Lost Generation born between 1883-1900 who grew up during the aftermath of WWI and The Great Depression. Similarly the Forgotten Generation lived not only through the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the Great Recession in 2007, but also live in a post 9/11 America that is driven by xenophobia and fear of fascism.
The Lost Generation also experienced a rapid flow of new information just as the Forgotten Gen is experiencing now. The Introduction of many new technological advances is seen in both generations.
Forgotten Gen kids also can relate to the Lost Generation in the sense that they are skeptical of all authority, especially parents, as back then their parents were pushing for the prohibition of alcohol which can be seen mirrored today with the Forgotten Gen pushing for legalization of Marijuana, while our parents tend to be against it.
Many members of both generations have been known to reject more traditional ideas of proper behavior, morality, and gender roles. Both generations are considered to be “lost” due to the tendency to act aimlessly, even recklessly, often focusing on the hedonistic accumulation of personal wealth.
Both the Lost Gen and the Forgotten Gen started exploring its own set of values, ones that clearly went against what their elders had already established.
