I watched it and it honestly is pretty cool, kinda catchy and funny and reminiscent of some steam orange box edit from 15 years ago
The youtube comments are full of ~20 year olds complaining about it though (probably mostly ironically but still)

I refuse to accept “gen alpha”. If Gen z is late 90s to 2000s, shouldn’t “Gen alpha” be in like fifth grade at most? Do they even count as a distinct generation yet? Are we gonna get Gen Beta in like two years?
It’s such an arbitrary and contrarian concept, just scrap the idea of namwd “generations” altogether.
The youngest millennials are like 26 (1997 is the cutoff per the idiots who came up with it). People are really jumping the gun, as the youngest gen z is like 10 years old.
It’s like the memeification of generations. Like kids that were born in 2007 saw all the zoomers distinguishing themselves from millennials and now they want in on calling people slightly older than them “boomers”.
gen alpha is killing the apple sauce industry with their selfish preference for chocolate pudding cups
Seriously I’m 30 how are there 2 generations with distinct media tastes fighting already behind me.

I think generations are valid, but the demarcations for the generations are terrible. They should be based on watershed moments in history of a given country. Since different countries will have different watershed moments, generations should be country specific. For example, a “boomer Iraqi” makes no sense because Iraq didn’t have a baby boom equivalent.
In terms of zoomers, I demarcate the two watershed moments as 9/11 and Covid. In other words, zoomers weren’t old enough to remember a pre-9/11 world but old enough to remember a pre-Covid world. Since someone born a day before 9/11 would have zero memory of 9/11, let along a pre-9/11 world, there can be a ~4 year offset before the actual year of the watershed. For me anyways, a zoomer is someone born between 1997 (2001-4) and 2016 (2020-4). Within this almost 20 year range, you could subdivide this so you can categories like “old zoomer” or “peak zoomer.” The 2008 financial crash and the 2016 presidential election are two minor watershed moments. So 1997-2004 are the early zoomers, 2004-2012 are the peak zoomers, and 2012-2016 are the later zoomers. Agewise, this is 19-26 for older zoomers, 11-19 for the middle zoomers, and 7-11 for the younger zoomers.
The hate of skibidi toilet is just older zoomers cringing at younger zoomers, but everyone involved is a zoomer.
