Generation Z
Today’s teenagers and young adults, ranging in age from about 10-22. Whatever source you look up says something different, though.
We grew up in a post 9/11 world, were kids when the economy crashed, saw the first black man elected president and the first orange man elected president. Social media and iPhones were and are part of growing up for us.
Although the world is statistically getting better, we’ve never felt like we live in a peaceful world. As kids, we watched the war in Iraq and Afghanistan on TV. We have seen the rise of ISIS, school shootings, and huge natural disasters due to climate change. We have been inundated with bad news and fake news due to growing up with the internet. Adults told us growing up that we were entitled narcissists and our phones that they invented were destroying our social skills.
We grew up on youtube, twitter and instagram, making friends with people halfway across the world since we were young. We are the first truly global generation. Our claim to fame is our memes.
We have been handed a world that is more complex and faster changing than any other time in history. Many see it as broken. We saw the world lose it’s footing around 2016 when Trump became president, Brexit passed, and Harambe died. Many of us question whether or not it’s ethical to have kids, because we wonder if they’ll be around to see the end of the world. We are ridden with depression and anxiety and worry for the future. We are doing the best we can.
Generation Z: how bout I just yeet myself into oblivion
Generation Z

Generation Z
All the unfortunate people born between 1997 and 2010 who grew up with the Internet. The generation who saw someone kill themselves in a video, but 'hey look there are also cute baby animals'. If you ask anybody of this generation to sing you Rick Astley’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’ they could. Probably all are either depressed, have anxiety or both, but everyone must die anyway, right?
Millennials: Oh I am sooo depressed
Generation Z: *eyes red from crying for the last hour* Kowabummer
