Have to agree. Only time I think about this stuff, is when I see it posted online. And even then it zips in and out of my head because... who cares? Only most miserable of people would associate when you were born with a personality type, a political leaning, or well, anything.
We still see all this "boomers are awful" when theres millennials walking around being just as horrible. Almost like being an asshole or not wasnt linked to your birth year or something...
I think about it when I pass my old high school. They have this fence that has these posters for all the high schools accolades. Teams going to state and winning competitions and some other type of award or honors. There are a ton except none from the eighties. There is this gap and then it starts back up. Somethin was up with that time.
