Maybe just take a moment and relax. I wasn't attacking you, just pointing out you simply have the history wrong, and that your characterization came across as patronizing.

I don't have the history wrong. We're just talking about the same people at different points in time.
Think about what generations would be in the workforce in 1980.
You write a wall of text and someone complains that you missed their favorite detail.
You make it concise and someone complains that there's not enough detail.
You use strong words and someone complains that you're virtue signaling.
You take a mild tone and someone complains that you're being dismissive.
This is a slow moving 40yr transition that is intertwined with every sector of the economy at the macro and micro level. If your goal is to find a way that my few sentence comment is not perfectly accurate in describing it I'm sure you can accomplish that.
