The High Spirit of Gen X

  • Let's get real about Generation X and this whole buzz about them being "cancelled." Can you really cancel an entire generation that's all about standing on their own two feet and sticking together? We're going to dig into what it really means to have social clout, why everyone's chasing after the spotlight, and what makes Gen X so darn resilient.
    They might not have the usual badges of clout or cash, but let me tell you, Gen Xers have something solid-a bond that's tough as nails. So, even if the world tries to hit the cancel button on them, they're not going anywhere. They're tight-knit, and that's their superpower. No cancellation's gonna change that. #genx #genxcrew #cancelculture #resilience #genxfamily #westicktogether #GenerationX #cancelled #selfsupport #unity #socialinfluence #attention #support #power #status #financialinfluence #unbreakablebond #GenXunity

    I’m wondering if it’s even possible to “cancel” us. I mean, for the cancelling to work, doesn’t the subject need to care about being cancelled?
    How do you cancel people that have zero fux to give about being cancelled?
    Then again, if it gets all these whiners to leave us alone again…please, go for it!

    The irony here, if I'm understanding the situation, is that the generations after us are the ones cancelling us? Don't they realize Gen X is the entire reason why we can now have kids who are out, proud and living as themselves? Ours was the generation that first embraced diversity. We were the ones who were all about self-expression, living authentically and accepting that others could be different yet those differences weren't something to divide us.
    I don't get it.
    Or care, TBH.

    • @Ok_Loren
      @Ok_Loren Před 26 dny +2

      Yeah, the difference is we said be yourselves & stuck to the idea of minding our own business. Now we have backward laws that are more strict & confining which are trying to overcorrect each other. One thing Gen X doesn’t like is ppl telling us what to do. I still believe in diversity, but I’m also stubborn as sh!t & have issues with authority figures. I will take issue with anyone trying to limit the power I have to make my own decisions. So the real problem is still boomers vs millennials/gen z.

    Does this mean I don't have to see anymore videos of them telling us how much they don't like us? Or videos of us reacting to their misinformation about who we suppossedly are, what we've supposedly done, or what we supposedly have? Does this mean we get to go back to being ignored and posting our inside jokes only we understand? Because that was way more fun and interesting. You know, how it was like 2-3 months ago? Is this paragraph in this volume of our story over? Can we remove it in edit? I think we're in consensus as to the inconsequentiality of being recognized as significant for all of a minute of an entire lifetime.

    Who the hell noticed us to 'cancel' us?
    Did someone get bored? Coz there's a saying about sleeping dogs, and those raised in wolf packs ... or there should be lol
    So who is coming for the IDGAF Generation?
    Millennials? The aptly named 'Gen Y?'
    Gen Z? Did they look up from their devices for long enough to notice the quiet ones?
    Can't be Gen Alpha, we're their grandparents, (or have been adopted as such) they see us more often than their parents, and we tell them about all the things we did and their parents won't let them - you know, independence, choices, unsupervised time with friends, having friends ...
    I'd say 'it's nice to be noticed,' but it really isn't. The wanna-be cancellers can take their momentary interest, and manufactured outrage, and go back to following the Kardashians 🙄
    We're not interested, and we genuinely don't give a sh*t. Go use your energy on the planet - we tried that sh:t, had some wins, and then got shut down. We had the Cold War, the hole in the Ozone Layer, and AIDS, and those were tip the world ending scenarios that darkened our 'childhoods.'
    Cancelled? Yes please - if it means we go back to being invisible and ignored. We're tired.
