I may be an '06 baby but I'm a gen alpha defender for LIFE.
The way so many gen z treat gen alpha is exactly how millenials treated us. I don't understand how they can't see that...? It's the cherry picking and weird generalisations. Yes, a lot of gen alpha grew up with a DS or a flip phone, didn't have an ipad, like reading, aren't Sephora kids, grew up with the same cartoons as us, etc.
Millenials made the exact same assumptions about us. According to certain millenials, I don't know what a CD is, I don't know the "struggle" of pressing a key three times to get the letter 'c', I hate Eminem (???), I'm addicted to my phone (ironic), don't know old bands, etc.
So fun fact about technology and old music/films/shows, they don't actually vanish off the face of the Earth as soon as a new generation is born. Isn't that crazy? What's even crazier is that generations often have overlapping childhoods and grow up with the same stuff. Insane, I know.
Also idk why we're hating on gen alpha for what their parents did. Have you guys considered that "ipad kids" are the way they are because they're suffering from literal neglect? Yeah, turns out if your parents can't be arsed spending time with you and just give you a screen to entertain you, you end up with issues.
In summary, stop being stupid, leave gen alpha alone.
TW for proshipping mentions here, proshippers DNI
Also as a sidenote, the "puriteen" thing is creepy and adult prosh*ppers (derogatory) need to learn to leave kids alone and just block them. Why are you sending essays to kids about how it's okay to jork it to incest fics because you were SAd as a child... that's crazy.
If you're gen alpha and weirdo 30 year old millenial women are telling you that you just don't understand because you're a kid, I got told the same shit on UNDERTALE AMINO... A SPACE FOR KIDS... and I'm still firmly against them years later. They just don't like arguing with adults as much as they do kids (wonder why.)
