We're calling them gen a?
We can just end the whole "gen" thing.
I think it's alpha but α is annoying to write (outside Greece at least).
But yeah, grouping people in generations isn't really explaining much beyond "people of different ages view this new situation differently". I think it's a very American thing. We don't care as much about generations in Europe and hardly ever name them.
Yeah it's a strange, obviously inaccurate consolidation of millions of people, as if they all share a personality.
Pretty useless and somewhat demeaning trend.
It's media-friendly astrology
