If we’re playing that game, then this diagnosis is coming from a group with severe anxiety.

This being any sort of ‘tit-for-tat’ response is coincidentally a pretty ‘boomer’ take on mental health.

Anxiety can be (and is often) situational, and anxious situations can be a catalyst for general anxiety disorder, etc. I’m not gonna sit here and pretend to know what it’s like to be an average income earning millennial, even though I am a millennial. But the fact that I’m sitting here on my nice fat tech worker salary (after still finding it quite hard to buy a house), supporting my partner who is studying and working part-time, and am still feeling the pinch of inflation, makes me completely sympathise with those earning less than me that are surely freaking the fuck out.

What about observing a trend is a boomer take?

Maybe they have a good reason for it, which is the point? :p

Doesn’t remove the anxiety, however justified

Um, why would that be expected?
