>>344863Before globohomo i would say these gen categories are U.S. centric, someone who was promised "an optimistic future where science and reason would lead mankind" already saw behind the veil in a couple of wars before WWI when some industrial forays were already present like the balkan wars or the skirmishes of the 1880's.
And to be fair some people were living like the "silent generation" in rural parts all over the world.
Globohomo did homogenize everything but the most fucked up of rural places and that's still debatable due to mobile phones and remote internet access. The only difference is culture of parents before that and war. In that regard some slav who grew in the mid-90's is much more jaded and cautious than an american gen X despite the latter being the stereotypical bad-tempered angsty person.
