Generational talk is usually just a way for older people to talk trash about younger people as well as to help them figure out how to sell more stuff to them. That's not the whole story though. The world has changed significantly in the last 15-20 years. Technology and Globalization have reshaped so much that it is meaningful to talk about people raised in this new context in a ways that's more than just marketing BS.
Maybe the generational framing is not ideal but there's definitely some value in talking about people born within this particular era because it's so incredibly different from the eras before it in many complex and deeply interconnected ways.
