@DefendNoWave@loserbent I'm not sure if this means that Zoomers have more refined taste, and are less constrained by novelty than we Millennials were – or if stuff from that era on would really WAS better than stuff from before it on average. Maybe a little of both.
@DefendNoWave@loserbent A phenomenon I have noticed is that Zoomers are WAY more likely to see things that existed before they were born as cool, interesting, and hip than Millennials ever did – but mostly things from the 80s or later.
@palinasin@polypocketknife Of course it can! It's not like most people can tell the difference between one language they don't speak on another anyway. Especially here in the US.
@ChineseFlo@fuckcriscuit Even if this were true (it's not, I was experiencing gender dysphoria at 5 years old in the 80s living in a conservative household before I knew what a Jew was) – what's wrong with Jews? Jews ≠ Israel or Zionists. Sounds like blatant, boring anti-Semitism to me.
