This is so, so dumb. Gen Xers dominate US culture in music, arts, film. They are in many of the top wealth slots on the Forbes list; Elon, Peter Thiel come to mind just now. A vast percentage of the powerful and working investors are in this category. I think our hallowed saint of YC is an Xer as well. There were in my youth, and still are, Xers who think it's cool to drop out and act too cool to work, but I bet Nina Power isn't one of these either, given that she's senior editor at a cool-looking zine thing online. I wish I could say the essay read like a bit of performance art, but sadly I think it's just pandering, and that sucks, as we used to say to our boomer parents way back in the 80s.
