Okay this is like….an AGGRESSIVELY debated topic throughout media and I kinda wanna share my opinion on it so here it goes.
Debate topic: does Gen alpha start twenty ten or twenty twelve??
So, just to put this out there, I’m okay with not being Gen Z. I mean, Gen Alpha is a curse, but I’m not very defensive so I don’t care what you think.
But can we agree that there is a drastic difference between how kids from twenty ten/twenty eleven vs. twenty twelve act??
I know that most Gen z don’t know many twenty eleven to twenty thirteen kids, but unfortunately I’m surrounded by them every fricken day unfortunately so I see it first hand.
I’m sure most of us have had heard of and had enough of Gen alpha slang right? Most of my friends are 2010 2011 and like… we say it jokingly, usually making fun of the sixth graders in our school. But I was talking to two of my friends, one born 2013 and the other born 2012, and I was sharing a funny story and both of them were like “that’s so SiGmA” “what the sKiBiDi” and I laughed times but they were deadass. Like that was an actual part of their vocabulary that they used in normal conversations. Ngl I was kinda judging them ToT
So regardless of what year it starts, please understand that people from 2010 and 2011 are VERY different from the later gen alpha.
At this point, I’ve just started calling people born from years 2010 through 2012 genwtf
