    I don’t know about coding. Don’t most gen alphas have a lower proficiency with desktop computers because they’re used to iPads and phones? I get you can code on a tablet but it would be such a pain to do it right that most wouldn’t bother doing it that way.

      no. you’re right. they’re dull without the bonus of being able to dismantle the technology that runs the dystopia they were born into. possibly the lamest generation to date. even the dreaded boomers gave us some of america’s greatest rebel icons. Z just gave us _ (i need someone else to fill in the blank).

        Gen alpha’s still quite young so I don’t expect them to contribute much yet. I’m only sorry about the wasted potential because of lazy parents giving them iPads and scummy millennials filling their content feeds with skibidi toilet and other click bait mindrot. The pandemic certainly contributed to their social and technological ineptitude as well.

        The ones that were fucking jail bait and society thought that it was acceptable?
