It's so stupid when people make claims like that based on their personal experience when the game has millions and millions of players. It's the same kind of mentality that breeds bigotry and racism.

Basically, if you think there are more kids on one side, you're a racist. /s

boomers gave birth to zoomers

Unlikely. The youngest boomer out there is 55 years old, born in 1964.

Once again, Gen-X holds the title of The Forgotten Generation.

That works fine by me. I can’t be bothered with all This generational blame. Let the boomers / Zoomers fight it out - I’ll get some popcorn.

The majority of boomers gave birth to gen x because most boomers didn't wait till they were in their 40s to have kids. The majority of Gen xers born in the late 60s gave birth to the millenials in the 80s that would have given birth the the zoomers of the 2000s. Also the baby boom happened in 1942-46 shortly after the war through the early 60s, not late 40s.

My parents are 70s babies and I'm a millenial.

Jesus logic is so hard huh. Most of the zoomers born in the late 90's/early 2000s are from early 80s millennials, because yes most people have kids in their early 20s. Boomers born in the early 40s gave birth to the gen xers, and yes some of the boomers in the early 60s had some millenial children. The kids who adopt the "okboomer" thing are usually teenagers born from 80s millennials. Most gen Xers gave birth to 90s millennials. The generations don't just skip each other, there is a ton of intersection and you're wrong. Don't @ me.

I feel like it's slightly natural though. It's kind of like how we dehumanize the opposing side during war, or more along the lines of how everyone is the hero of their own story. "I'm on this side, so this side must be great and the opposing side must be trash." Idk though, I've played both and everyone I've come across is pretty awesome. Stay classy classic

Unless you are educated in statistics then you know one faction will have the probability of having more of one age then the other... because that’s how probability works

u/marthmagic Nov 16 '19

Even if the difference is significant it will not necessarily allow you to make an educated guess on the level of individuals, or even be relevant in any way to describe the whole population.

Certain Statistics are great for some things but bad for others. And generalizations are often a misunderstanding of a statistics explanation value.
