I wouldn’t say every Gen X failed, most of the Gen X people I know were vastly more successful than their parents. It just seems like a huge shift in general.
Gen X represents a large chunk of billionaires for example, popular celebrities, most politicians, etc.
They just seem to have very little care or interest for those things and that’s not something that is taught imo. I wasn’t brought up to have some special appreciation for such things, I just did out of my own volition.
I think even had there been a bigger push to get Gen X into such heritage and history they’d have just complained it was “lame” and gone to play Nintendo or something
